Users will be able to receive free cryptocurrency tokens in honor of the coronation of the British monarch

4:27 pm, May 8, 2023

In honor of the coronation of the new British monarch Charles III, a unique limited edition NFT The Oath was launched. The digital tokens were created by the Evening Standard, a popular London newspaper.

The Oath is a tokenized and animated version of the Trevor Jones painting The Oath. It depicts the crown of St. Edward against the backdrop of a London street and the national flag. This is a photo of a real crown made of solid gold weighing 2.2 kg. It has been used to crown British monarchs since 1661.

The artist Trevor Jones became a partner of the project. Here is how the artist himself comments on the collection: «I wanted to make a gift for the public. Anyone, anywhere can create one NFT for free. People can keep it, sell it, give it to a friend. They can do whatever they want with the NFT.»

By the way, Jones was one of the first artists to master the art of digital tokens. His collection The Bitcoin Angel is very popular on the Nifty Gateway marketplace. In total, the artist created 8 NFT collections on the same platform before the release of The Oath.

It is worth noting that the NFT platform Nifty Gateway allowed users to mint The Oath digital tokens for free until May 14 inclusive (midnight).

It was recently reported that the richest man in the world, Bernard Arnault, is investing in NFT. The French businessman, whose fortune is estimated at $ 211 billion, has his own wallet on the OpenSea marketplace. Earlier, Arnault spoke negatively about non-fungible tokens and meta-universes. «We live in the real world. We are not interested in selling a few virtual sneakers for 10 euros,» the billionaire said in early 2022.
