Jason Citron, the CEO of Discord, posted a teaser today on Twitter hinting at Ethereum integration with the popular chat platform.

Discord CEO and founder Jason Citron has posted a screenshot of a yet unreleased feature that allows users to connect the app with Ethereum.

Citron posted the image in a reply to another post with the text “probably nothing.” Here is how the ETH integration apparently looks like:

As the above image shows, Ethereum is visible under the “Connections” tab in the user settings of the app. There is also another window open in the screenshot that seems to be hinting at MetaMask and WalletConnect integration.

Originally started as a chat platform for gamers, Discord has established itself as a communications app that can be used by anyone for any purpose.

It’s one of the most widely used such platforms, and it has lately become especially popular among the crypto community.

The tweet by the CEO was in response to Packy McCormick’s “Not Boring” newsletter’s latest release, where the writer describes the platform as a “Web 3 sleeper.”

In the replies to Citron’s tweet, a user asked about how they can connect their wallet as they don’t see the option to do so anywhere. They asked whether it was a limited rollout or if it’s a pre-release version. To which, the Discord founder replied with “pre-release.”

Some other users in the replies have raised concerns about whether the app is secure enough for this move. The platform has recently become plagued with attempts at phishing scams.

Citron replied to one such tweet saying “Spam and security our a top priority for us in this space. We have recently spun up team working on it specifically. More to come soon.”

At the time of writing, the Ethereum integration features haven’t yet rolled out on either the app or the browser version.
