These assets can be packaged and marketed individually or sold as NFTs, in addition to numerous opportunities to adapt these properties into series and other transmedia projects. Our anticipated NFT technology platform will only enhance that capability. We will utilize blockchain technology to facilitate the marketing, trading, and sale of digital artwork, collectibles, and creator content. NFTs represent one of the exciting new ways for creators to utilize the power of technology to showcase their passions."

Frommer continued, "These auctions provide us invaluable data, quantitatively and qualitatively, and we look forward to sharing insights as we continue to uncover data on both the technicals and the fundamental issues of the blockchain, crypto, and NFT space. Following the successful sale of all 10 of our Madonna NFTs, we are commencing a seven-day auction, listing our one-of-a-kind NFT, the 'Trump Pictures.'
