YouTube's CEO, Susan Wojcicki, addressed YouTube's priorities for 2022 in a letter published Tuesday on the company blog. Among those priorities is the possibility of adding nonfungible token, or NFT, features for the platform's video creators.

What this could look like is yet to be determined, however. No additional details were provided in Wojcicki's statement aside from the claim that the YouTube team will use developments in the Web3 space “as a source of inspiration.”

As YouTube looks to expand the number of ways that creators can earn money, one option is to "capitalize on emerging technologies." Currently, there are 10 ways for creators to monetize their business according to Wojcicki, including ads and the newly introduced TikTok-like YouTube Shorts. Could NFTs be next?

YouTube boasts one of the largest creator communities and is the second most visited site in the world, according to Similarweb. In light of the rise of the Metaverse and other Web3 initiatives by social media platforms like Meta and Twitter, which has recently allowed iOS users to use NFTs as their profile pictures, YouTube looks to compete to retain and attract talent.

In her letter, Wojcicki also mentioned their intention to improve the live experience o gaming creators as a priority. Since NFT integration in video games has become the main use case for the adoption of NFTs, this could suggest that gaming creators may be more open to capitalizing on YouTube's new initiative.
