In this recording of the third and final webinar in our popular NFT series, we look at some of the more technical aspects of launching an NFT collection.
The webinar will examine how sports rights-holders can identify the best blockchain, establish how their fans will buy and store their digital collectibles, as well as looking at aspects like utility, ease of transaction and security.
