The purpose is to “drive revenue to local businesses and non-profits through exclusive rewards offerings.” In the project, Miami will reveal 5,000 NFTs created by 56 local artists.
Mayor Francis X. Suarez said, “The City of Miami has been on the vanguard of the web3 revolution, and we will continue to employ these new technologies to support our existing businesses while attracting new ones, raising capital, and providing experiences for our citizens and those visiting this great City. At the same time, we can also use this novel approach to support local artists and charities.”
In this, TIME will focus on strategies, developing creative areas, and launching. Mastercard will give NFT holders “access to its Priceless Miami experiences.” Salesforce’s role is in minting and selling the NFTs via NFT Cloud.
This project will launch in December 2022. There will be updates about this later.
