Lil Durk Releases His Own Line Of Sneakers named “LIL DURK 7220”made in Portugal.
Y’all coppin These Jawns or nah. As for his life outside of music, the artist has been looking to do things in the business realm. Although it has taken a bit of a dive, NFTs are still on people’s radars. Consequently, Lil Durk has decided to merge his fascination with NFTs with his love of sneakers. The artist has teamed up with a new company called NXTG3NZ, which he is launching a line of sneakers with.
As you can tell, this shoe has a chunky quality to it. Clearly, the Kanye influence has been rubbing off on Durk. That said, these shoes released last night and are now currently available on the NXTG3NZ website. However, it should be noted that you aren’t buying the physical sneaker right now. Instead, you are simply purchasing an NFT that will give you access to the sneaker six months down the line. While some fans may be confused by this, they have to understand that this seems to be the new way of doing things. Although the Metaverse is still in its infancy.
Secondly, let’s dive into Algorand. Silvio Micali, a Turing Award-winning cryptographer, founded Algorand. Essentially, Algorand’s technology provides fast and smooth services for everyone. The company designed its technology to be inclusive, sustainable, and to make things more efficient and transparent. Thus, helping users participate more easily.
Algorand and Lil Durk are partnering up to create a new NFT collection, the 7220 NXTG3NZ. Significantly, these phygital collectibles are linked to a real-life version of the sneaker. This means that whoever owns a digital pair of 7220 NXTG3NZ sneakers will also get a physical pair. NFT holders will also get exclusive benefits such as access to Lil Durk experiences, concerts and the chance to design a pair of sneakers with his elite creative team. Moreover, digital sneaker owners can show off their ownership in virtual worlds like Wilder World and The Sandbox.
Lil Durk said, “Using blockchain with fashion makes it more transparent, reaching more people, and we only use NTFs as authenticity. Algorand has that on lock with its tech.”
So, how can we get hold of one? Well, the collection’s public minting event will go live on April 10th at 11:11 a.m. EDT. Fans can sign up now to make sure they’re on the early access list, although the price is yet to be confirmed. Ultimately, this release showcases Algorand’s ability to scale digital assets and create value through interactive experiences.
