Cristiano Ronaldo Unveils First NFT Collection With Binance
As part of an exclusive multi-year agreement, Cristiano Ronaldo’s first NFT collection will be made available on Friday, November 18, by Binance, the world’s foremost blockchain ecosystem and cryptocurrency infrastructure provider.
A global marketing effort involving Ronaldo will support the launch and introduce his followers to Web3 through the realm of NFTs.
He Yi, co-founder and chief marketing officer of Binance, said: “We think the metaverse and blockchain are the future of the internet.” We are proud to work with Cristiano to promote blockchain education and illustrate how Web3 infrastructure is being developed for the sports and entertainment sector.
Because my supporters are such an integral part of my career, it was crucial to me that we come up with something special and unforgettable for them, stated Ronaldo. “With Binance, I was able to create something that not only conveys the game’s passion but also thanks fans for their long-term support,” the author said.
The first Cristiano Ronaldo NFT collection, which includes seven animated statues with four rarity levels—Super Super Rare (SSR), Super Rare (SR), Rare (R), and Normal—will be released on November 18 at 9 a.m. UTC (N). Every NFT statue features a famous scene from Ronaldo’s life, from his career-defining bicycle kicks through his early years in Portugal.
On the Binance NFT marketplace, an auction will be performed for the 45 CR7 NFTs with the greatest values (5 SSR and 40 SR). NFTs will be given to the highest bidder after a 24-hour auction period. SSR and SR bid prices will start at 10,000 and 1,700 BUSD, respectively.
The price for the Normal rarity of the remaining 6,600 NFTs (600 R and 6,000 N) on Binance will be 77 BUSD.
Every rarity level will have a unique set of benefits, such as:
– Personal message from Cristiano Ronaldo
– Autographed CR7 & Binance merchandise
– Guaranteed access for all future CR7 NFT drops
– Complimentary CR7 Mystery Boxes
– Entry into giveaways with signed merchandise and prizes
Additionally, new customers will get a Cristiano Ronaldo Mystery Box when they join with Binance.com (and finish KYC). Limited-edition Ronaldo NFTs might be found in these boxes.
For the first 1.5M new Binance users who register with referral ID RONALDO, there are CR7 Mystery Boxes available.
Users in the US who make deposits on the site throughout the offer period will receive a free memento NFT from Binance.US, Binance.com’s US partner. Users that acquire the souvenir NFT will have access to the whitelist to buy CR7 NFTs in the future. New and current US customers must register here in order to take part in the promotion.
Early in 2023, new sets from the Cristiano Ronaldo NFT collection will be made available. The only place where these collections will be sold is on Binance.com; for the most recent information, follow Binance on Twitter.
