Vividthree Holdings is launching its first non-fungible token (NFT) as it develops digital collectibles of the characters from its webcomic intellectual property (IP) “Silent Horror”.
The first stage of the NFT sale will start this month, the company said in a statement. The tokens will be sold on Opensea.io, the largest digital marketplace for crypto collectibles and NFTs.
Proceeds from the sale will fund further development of Silent Horror, including a potential spin-off. The supernatural horror webcomic series has gotten over 100 million views online since Feb 2015.
Vividthree managing director Charles Yeo said the NFT sale will allow fans to own a piece of their favourite character while also helping to contribute to the further development of ‘Silent Horror’ as the company continues to invest in the IP’s growth.
“The NFT sale also marks a monumental moment for the group as we tap into the limitless opportunity of blockchain to accelerate the execution of our growth plans.”
Shares in Vividthree closed 1 cent higher or 13.89% up on Dec 7.
