Regarding the NFT collection that GLEAC is launching for a new way of sharing knowledge between the great professionals that are part of the project and the people who want to know more about them can learn all about it in the official website. However, in NFTexpress we bring you some previews: it will be 5 hours in a talk directly with the mentor. Also, the NFT owner will be able to customize the non-fungible token with different colors and textures. The IP (Intellectual Property) of the conversion will have the possibility to be tokenized as NFT with 90% royalties for the owner of the non fungible token and the mentor. In addition, they will be able to have exclusive access to the community and exclusive events with all current and future experts that will be added to the NFT collection. The goal is to create the world’s first Metaverse Museum of industry expert wisdom (not confirmed, but expected to be in Decentraland).
Moreover, the Whitelist will provide buyers with the opportunity to resell the expert’s image artwork (those that can be seen in the professionals’ description) and receive additional time with the expert in 2023. Finally, the value of the NFTs will be $25,000 before they go on the secondary market and owners of the non-fungible tokens will be able to collaborate with GLEAC’s featured professionals on future projects.
