Some of the proceeds from the sales of the NFT collections will be deployed to fund charities, DAOs, and other initiatives which Gary Vaynerchuk supports.
The Chairman of VaynerX and the Chief Executive Officer of VaynerMedia, Gary Vaynerchuk has unveiled VeeFriends, the community created for holders of his first set of NFT collections. Per the official release, VeeFriends was born out of the need to create an ecosystem for people, no matter their geographical location who wishes to be a part of Gary Vaynerchuk’s network.
Leveraging the growing interest surrounding Non-Fungible Tokens, Gary has decided to plunge himself deep into the core of the collectibles niche through a total of 10,255 unminted tokens. Anyone who gets to own either of the tokens seeks to propound the position that human actions, knowledge, and character can be used to serve his community. Through the NFTs, Gary will give people access to harness the inherent opportunities in NFTs while also unlocking the potential values locked in smart contracts.
As detailed in the release, the professional networking Gary has been building for the past 15 years will be boosted through the structure VeeFriends and the underlying NFTs are billed to open up. The NFTs will give any of its holders the opportunity to attend VeeCon in 2022, 2023, and 2024. The VeeCon event is a conference that will enjoin diverse participation with a focus on business, marketing, ideas, creativity, entrepreneurship, innovation, competition, while not also ruling out fun.
Gary Vaynerchuk to Create Value through Direct Involvement in VeeFriends
Gary’s aim according to the press release is to maximize value to all of his network, which is bound to see growth through VeeFriends.
“I have always been about building businesses and creating value for my community – this NFT project allows me to do both. When I saw this macro human trend the only way for me to help others understand it was to be a part of it,” Gary Vaynerchuk said in a statement. “I know that NFTs will be here for the rest of my life and I will be actively consulting, investing, and advising in this space and I wanted to do it from actually being on the field – doing it myself. I have always believed in being a practitioner of the craft I believe in.”
The 10,255 NFT collections were imagined and drawn by Gary, while the blockchain platform, NFT42 will provide the minting technology for the digital collectibles. Users can make purchases for these collections through Ethereum for payments which can be facilitated using MetaMask, any WalletConnect supported wallet, and others.
Some of the proceeds from the sales of the NFT collections will be deployed to fund charities, DAOs, and other initiatives which Gary supports.
