Crypto.com NFT in the Spotlight

The “Own Every Word: School’s Out” drop features 200 new summertime words with an 8-bit animated background that will never be used again. A wizard and hapless group of comedians used magical cryptocurrency mumbo jumbo to transform a sacred text into Own Every Word, an NFT project that allows collectors to own all the words ever created.
“Inferno” is an exploration of wildland fire fighting in the Pacific Northwest of the United States, and uses drones created to mimic the appearance of local wildlife. This project is created by Robert Chew, a concept artist with six years experience at Gearbox Software working on the Borderlands franchise (Borderlands 3) and Battleborn.
