It\u2019s official. The community has spoken, and the future of media is tokenized<\/a>.<\/p>\n The Now Pass<\/a> has officially minted out, raising 624 ETH ($1.1 million) <\/strong>in under 48 hours. This landmark moment supports our vision for the Now Network \u2014 the foundation for all of nft now\u2019s initiatives to build the future of tokenized media, pioneer a community-centric media model, and bring about a more creator-friendly future.<\/p>\n These results are awe-inspiring for a two-year-old media company, not to mention any project in the depths of a bear market. The fact that we accomplished this when more traditional Web2 publications like GQ<\/a> and National Geographic<\/a> struggled to enter the NFT space successfully proves that nft now is leading the way for the future of media.\u00a0<\/p>\n The Now Network currently includes 1,729 unique Now Pass holders worldwide, including leading demographics from the United States, Germany, and China. We welcome you to join our fast-growing community by picking up a Now Pass on OpenSea<\/a>.<\/p>\n From day one, nft now\u2019s mission has been anchored on empowering the creators of culture, so it\u2019s only fitting to count so many talented creators in our community.
