Faced with a wave of criticism, Discord abandons its Ethereum wallet integration project

A few days after suggesting that it would soon be possible to pay or send donations with Ether (ETH) on Discord, the instant messaging platform backtracked.

Jason Citron, creator of Discord , has decided to reverse his decision following the grumbling of many users.

Discord cancels its ETH wallet project

In recent months, several images of a Discord survey polling users of the platform about their interest in NFTs have appeared on the Web. A few days ago, Jason Citron, CEO of the American company, confirmed the Ethereum wallet integration project into the platform with a screenshot. Faced with user dissatisfaction, Discord finally reversed its decision.  

“  Thank you all for sharing your perspectives. We have no plans to deploy this internal project on a large scale. For now, our focus is on protecting our users from spam, scams and fraud. Web3 has its bright spots, but it still has a lot of issues that we have to solve at our own pace. More on the subject soon,  ”the Discord boss said in a new tweet posted this Thursday, November 11.

Many users resistant to cryptocurrencies and their ecological impact immediately called for a strike movement and encouraged Nitro subscribers to cancel their paid Discord subscription.
