Marvel to Release NFT Digital Comics and Collectibles via the Veve App
According to a press statement released on Thursday, the comic book and film giant Marvel Entertainment is getting into NFTs. Marvel aims to launch digital collectibles, digital comics, and other NFT products.
Dan Buckley the president of Marvel Entertainment said in a statement:
“Since the beginning, collecting has always gone hand in hand with being a Marvel fan.” “Like us, Veve understands collecting is about the experience just as much as the product, and we look forward to extending that experience for our fans over the years to come.”
For the NFT venture, Marvel has partnered with Orbis Blockchain Technologies Limited, a firm that operates the Veve Digital Collectibles App. The application is available on iOS and Android. With the app, Marvel fans can buy and trade the company’s unique offerings. Veve app users can also “hunt for rare (and even secret-rare) NFT comic books and collectibles, and display their hard-earned collection through fully customizable virtual showrooms.
Veve’s in-app currency called gems will be required to purchase official Marvel NFT products and NFT owners can also sell them again via Veve’s secondary marketplace.
Daniel Fink, Marvel Entertainment’s vice president of business development and strategy said, through Veve’s platform the company hopes “to expand the limits of what Marvel fandom can be, starting with personal and interactive digital collectibles that, through NFTs, fans can truly collect, share, and enjoy in a way that they have not been able to do before.”
More details about Marvel’s exciting new digital collectibles coming to Veve will be shared in the next few weeks.
