Smash Chain Creates History By Fusing Hollywood & Blockchain; Unveils NFT collection
Blockchain disruption is here. It is undoubtedly has been among the most talked-about of disruptive technologies. This can be attributed to the technology’s close connection with the crypto realm, due to which it can directly affect he world’s most powerful financial trends.
However, the fact that it has blockchain technology has endless application across different industrial sectors that enables significant value, cannot be ignored. From smart contracts to stablecoin to flourishing new sub-sectors in the form of decentralized finance [DeFi] and non-fungible token [NFT], the blockchain industry has come a long way.
While development in the DeFi front does not appear to be slowing down anytime soon, NFT space is also not far behind. At a time when the digital revolution is occurring on a global scale, blockchain’s transforming asset tokenization is something that none of us may have imagined a decade ago.
Naturally, the NFT sales volume has skyrocketed. A year ago, these figures stood at around $400 million. Fast forward to September, NFT sales volume is more than a whopping $4 billion.
The rising interest in the asset class can be evidenced by the incredible capital infusion over the past several months. And rightly so. Deeds, certifications, almost anything, and everything are up for reinvention in a way that was not imaginable primarily because there was no way to represent uniqueness.
But for the first time in human history, NFT gives us away by enabling the creation of provably unique digital assets that can be maintained without a third party.
Particularly, NFTs have taken the world of digital art and collectibles, gaming by storm. Movies is another field where it shows tremendous potential.
As NFTs continue to set new trends in the digital art and collectibles zone, platforms are now increasingly becoming more creative. One such is SmashChain, which is essentially an NFT-exclusive curation, creation, and consulting platform that is overseen by the Smash Collective.
