Hong Kong reverse engineer Jane Manchun Wong recently discovered that Twitter is developing a feature for purchasing Twitter Coins under the guise of exploring the development of various software functionalities. Users will be able to use Stripe for payments.

Stripe announced the launch of cryptocurrency payment services in March last year, but it is currently unclear whether encrypted payments will be supported when purchasing Twitter Coins or if it will be limited to fiat currency purchases.

Additionally, the Twitter Coins purchase option will appear in the feature list on the left side of the Twitter page.

Currently, it is known that Twitter Coins can be used for a tipping function, and below are the reward lists discovered by Jane Manchun Wong. Prices range from 1 Twitter Coin to 5,000 Twitter Coins.

Furthermore, rewards must accumulate to at least $50 before they can be claimed, and they will be in fiat currency.

As for whether Twitter Coins are a form of cryptocurrency, according to her response to Decrypt, she has not found any indication that Twitter Coins are a form of cryptocurrency.
