In the United States, congressional candidates are now selling non-fungible tokens (NFTs) to help finance their campaigns in the midterm elections in a clear move toward embracing the cryptocurrency world.
The Associated Press news agency is launching a non-fungible token marketplace for collectors to purchase photographs taken during the agency’s 175-year history. It’s set to be built by blockchain tech firm Xooa, with the NFTs being minted on the Polygon blockchain.
An upstart NFT platform called LooksRare has gone live claiming to be a community-focused marketplace that will develop features based on user demand. The marketplace has explained it indexes all NFTs on Ethereum so they can be traded straightaway.
