According to Go2NFT, the feature could extend to validate merchandise as well as other official products such as racing car parts. This will enable supercar fans to enjoy peace of mind while buying branded goods. An investment of $5million was received by the company in March from the Skey Network blockchain ecosystem.
The Go2NFT platform allows brands to develop personal NFT certification by using the NFT technology.
Boris Ejsymont, chief business officer for Go2NFT said that responsibility, provenance and quality control are the major challenges for superbrands that look forward to safeguarding their IP. Trust and transparency for brands and their fans are possible with NFT utility.
In a statement, he said:
This project with VSR is just the start of many such co-operations for beloved brands across the globe.
2022 has seen the world of crypto and racing colliding. For instance, Formula 1 racing team Red Bull Racing got a $150 million partnership with Bybit in February.
