Narrative Updates
“Tokenizing Real World Assets via eCommerce and Mobile Apps”

The NFT Workx product vision started out around 18 months ago, where we began the development of the Asset Workx App – the idea was to enable people to organise their valuable physical assets within a simple to use app, and mint these assets (tokenize) as NFTs on the blockchain. Helping to improve asset authenticity and ownership transparency.
We then expanded this vision with the ideas of tokenizing new products at point of sale, via the most popular eCommerce platforms such as Shopify & WooCommerce, with the aim of onboarding millions of users into Web3, in a seamless and familiar way.
And we were clearly onto something…
On the 19th March, Blackrock, the world’s largest asset manager announced its $10 Trillion Tokenization Vision and the Future of Real World Assets! Blocktock believes that tokenizing real world assets is the future and NFT Workx has positioned itself right in the middle of that narrative 🙂
Pitch Competition Updates

After winning the Solana BuildStation Manchester Pitching event, NFT Workx were invited to the Solana Renaissance Hackathon, which ran March 4 2024 – April 8 2024.
More than 1000 projects were submitted so it is a very competitive event.
Winners will be announced the first week of May 2024!
Hackathon winners will be considered for Colosseum’s accelerator program. Accepted teams will receive: $250,000 in pre-seed funding.
Whether we win or not, we are now in the Solana ecosystem and community which is key for project, product and token growth!
