The Worldwide Asset eXchange (“WAX”) has announced that it is the home for the rock band Weezer’s first set of digital collectibles. Now available, the set, titled “OK Crypto,” is comprised of 60 collectibles that are a collaboration between the band, boutique toymaker Death by Toys and the music NFT collective RAREZ. The announcement noted that each of the album’s 12 tracks will be captured on the blockchain as digital collectibles, with five sets of animated artworks available to be collected, including the unique Ultra Rares, 1-of-1 “golden ticket” NFTs, which is redeemable for a physical toy handmade by Death by Toys’ own Dan Polydoris. WAX will mint Weezer NFTs, which will be a proof-of-stake blockchain that uses vastly less energy and is more than 100,000 times more efficient than other proof-of-work methods. Expectations are high for this offering, as similar WAX sales in the past have seen impressive popularity, often selling out in minutes. “OK Crypto” NFTS will be released at 1 p.m. ET today, with 10-card standard packs available for $10; 25-card mega packs will be $40. The cards can be traded and swapped on the WAX-powered marketplace, where all transactions are recorded on the blockchain.
