Thursday 28th October 2021
2021 has felt like a decade for people deep into the NFT digital art space. In that time we’ve seen a boom of interest… a bust of bags… and a second boom that might even represent that chasm crossing that so many dreams are based upon.
While Paris Hilton, Jay Z and Ja Rule bring their celebrity might…it’s the people that have been generating art on chain for years that finally get the recognition they deserve.
The NFT 2021 Awards recognises artists, their projects and the people that are represented in their community.
This years NFT Awards will take place on: Thursday 28th October 2021.
The first five awards are:
1. Wagmi Community Contribution Award
A person that can be held up to be a community contributor. This could be helping artists get started… moderating the discourse and chats… building the technology out….or perhaps just someone we can all trust.
Marketplace sponsor available.
2. Gmi 1/1 Artwork Award
A singular work that represents the pinnacle of creativity by an artist who is leveraging the potential of NFT’s in a way that is unmatched in the physical art space.
