The NFT.com Genesis Key Sale
The Company is also pleased to announce that the NFT.com Genesis Key sale, including the previously-announced whitelist auction and subsequent public release, has thus far generated over USD $6.5 million in net initial sales.
NFT.com is operated by The NFT Company, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Immutable Holdings. Substantially all sale proceeds, collected in Ethereum (“ETH”), have been converted to either US dollars or dollar-pegged USD Coin (“USDC”), following collection.
NFT.com Genesis Keys represent a collection of animated non-fungible tokens (“nft’s”), each of which allows early access to the platform, creation of four NFT.com profiles (for example, NFT.com/YOU), and the chance to provide feedback to help shape the future of the project. 5,000 of the 10,000 Genesis Key collection were made available for sale at NFT.com, with the remaining 5,000 locked in treasury for at least 6 months.
Roughly 1,300 Genesis Keys remain available for sale at NFT.com. Additionally, Genesis Keys and the NFT.com Profiles they create may be purchased or sold on secondary marketplaces such as OpenSea and LooksRare. Sales made on these platforms are subject to up to a 7.5% royalty. The Company has already started to collect revenues in this regard.
