I bought a @zilliqa football NFT to try it out and see what the craze is like on other chains. Cost me $3500 in $ZIL!

#zilliqafootballstars ⚽️

This launched 2 months ago with 10 stars to choose from, and obv idk anything about football but my friends argued between Diogo Jota and Ruben Dias for a long time.

I ended up choosing @rubendias on a coin toss 😂

Here he is! Man city player of the season, according to football news.

The 10 stars. Some handsome, some in their prime, some at the end of their career - each with 333 copies of the NFT, all cost $3500

Each nft pack has a few collectible videos in it. Like the career stats, or their background story, or some behind the scenes footage.

It’s like a very advanced Pokédex.

ZilPay wallet was easy to use. My nft is sitting safely in here!

But EVM compatibility is getting more and more important. So this part creates some friction for users who spend most of their time on ethereum.

I hope the nft ecosystem builds up further here in Zilliqa!

After spending some time playing with NFTs I think these jpegs (or movs) are a great store of value. But only if they create a unique chain experience for the collector.

For a non football fan I’m just trying it out, though I think minting generative nft collections on Zilliqa should be a lot cheaper and faster and also fail less.

For football fans… they’ve spent over a million dollars on these NFTs already!!
