Visa wants to educate creators about NFTs
Visa believes that NFTs are among the most promising ways to support creators.
That’s why Visa chose to build this program for designers in partnership with Micah Johnson. Johnson came to prominence as a professional baseball player, then turned to art in recent years. He offered his first NFT for sale in 2020.
According to Johnson, his works based on the Aku character have found an audience in part because of this new way to distribute art.
Here’s what he said:
« With the guidance of crypto-community alumni, I was able to build a business around my crypto-native persona, Aku, that can grow into a global media company. »
Visa and Micah Johnson will select a group of creators to be coached on how to monetize their work in this new way. Interested parties are invited to send in their applications to be considered for the program.
Visa, NFT and artists, a common interest:
Visa has already shown its keen interest in NFTs when the company bought a Cryptopunk for $150,000.
By creating a good synergy between these three stakeholders, each will be able to benefit from the success of the other by having concretely contributed to it.
