TSM FTX, the premier global esports organisation, has announced the creation of the org’s first-ever collection of NFTs, designed by Aurory, the blockchain-based game and NFT ecosystem.
Debuting, the four individual NFTs were a collaboration with Aurory, a PvE/PvP gaming project that uses NFTs powered by the cryptocurrency Solana and Serum. The tokens, also known as “Aurorians,” are each sporting TSM merch and apparel, including the iconic 2017 LCS-winning jersey and the brand-new 2021 version featuring the TSM FTX logo. These exclusive avatars have multiple functions both in and out of the game, including acting as a player’s visual identity, allowing owners early access to play future game modes before they are made public, exclusive access to special modes and rewards, and much more.
Fans can enter to win one of the avatars, one will be auctioned off to benefit an unannounced charity, and the other two will remain in the TSM FTX wallet for the time being.
Working with Aurory, whose mission seeks to encourage the global adoption of cryptocurrencies by introducing gamers to blockchain through incentivised gameplay, strategically aligns with TSM FTX’s innovative vision for the future. In June, the global gaming org announced a revolutionary $210 million, multi-year deal with FTX Trading Limited and West Realm Shires Services, owners and operators of FTX.com and FTX.US respectively. FTX is the world’s fastest-growing cryptocurrency exchange.
