MIAMI, [November 18, 2021]
NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) is a new technology undergoing significant growth in 2021. NFTs provide property rights and ownership for digital assets, making each NFT unique. In conjunction with blockchains, smart contracts and cryptocurrency – NFTs are a part of web 3.0, wherein users can tangibly share in the success of the communities and applications that they connect to.
“As the MiamiCoin ecosystem continues to grow, MIA will be used to empower all types of creators within the artistic community and beyond - to generate new forms of creative expression, and as MiamiCoin evolves, we may even begin to see MIA NFTs used as digital heirlooms, fractionalized real estate shares or access passes to venues or events.’
As part of the MiamiCoin mission, the expert panel will discuss the ways that NFTs can be a part of the MiamiCoin ecosystem to help not just artists but everyday residents of Miami thrive in the coming years and decades.
The panels will cover the topic from three different angles:
Vision – The long-term goals and potential impact that can be generated.
Technical – The developers share their insights about creating applications on MiamiCoin.
