CENT, an ad-free creator website or network that allows people to sell their tweets as NFTs, was able to generate millions of dollars from its large investors.
The platform, founded in 2017, was also used by celebrities and other popular individuals to sell their Twitter posts, comments, and other content on the giant social media platform. These include Jack Dorsey, the CEO of Square and Twitter.
He used CENT to sell his first tweet as an NFT for more than $2.9 million. Now, it seems like CENT is currently growing as it received million-dollar funding from its partners, thanks to the company's "Valuables," the NFT-selling platform it created.
"We just wrapped up for the day, and I was about to go eat dinner, and all these people started texting me," said the company's CEO, Cameron Hejazi.
The NFT company also explained that its rising place in the crypto world was made possible by Twitter's CEO, allowing them to have a free marketing campaign.

- The Twitter user's account name.
- The text of the post.
- The creator's digital signature.
