Dan Buckley, the President of Marvel Entertainment said that releasing Spider-Man NFTs is just the start and it could launch even more digital collectibles of superpowers later this month:
“Spider-Man is one of the most legendary Super Heroes in the Marvel Universe, so there was no better way to kick off our global digital collectibles experience with VeVe. We can’t wait to bring Marvel fans and collectors even more exciting drops throughout August and beyond.”
David Yu, the co-founder, and CEO of VeVe praised the new partnership with the entertainment company revealing that they have been working on the collab for some time:

Marvel entered the crypto space with the new NFTs being a hot topic in the past few months and many companies, singers, actors, and athletes joined the craze. Fox Broadcasting Company partnered with Dan Harmon who is the co-creator of Rick and Morty to start developing animated series based on blockchain technology. The popular comedy show dubbed “krapopolis” will launch NFTs showing Rick, Morty, and other characters of the animation. The series plans to reward the most devoted fans with tokens that grant only exclusive social experiences. Marvel’s main rival DC Comics dipped its toes in the NFT space as well and the company partnered with VeVe too to launch a digital collection for Batman.
