“Can NFTs Empower Communities”: MiamiCoin Invites All to Speaker Panel Series During Miami Art Week
CityCoins announced today that the MiamiCoin Speaker Panel Series will take part during Miami Art Week on December 3rd, 2021, at Bitbasel’s NFT Hotel, an immersive experience taking over the Sagamore South Beach, known as Miami’s original Art Hotel, it has been a lavish oceanfront destination since the days of Art Deco.
Miami, FL, November 23, 2021 --(PR.com)-- The event consists of a series of digital NFT galleries and artist showcases with three live panels based around the theme: “Can NFTs empower communities and engage residents while improving the quality of life in our city?,” followed by their networking event and official after-party.
NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) is a new technology undergoing significant growth in 2021. NFTs provide property rights and ownership for digital assets, making each NFT unique. In conjunction with blockchains, smart contracts and cryptocurrency – NFTs are a part of web 3.0, wherein users can tangibly share in the success of the communities and applications that they connect to.
MiamiCoin the first programmable, city-based token from CityCoins, was designed to incentivize innovative web 3.0 applications that can add new revenue streams for the City of Miami, while delivering new benefits and services for residents.
“As the MiamiCoin ecosystem continues to grow, MIA will be used to empower all types of creators within the artistic community and beyond - to generate new forms of creative expression, and as MiamiCoin evolves, we may even begin to see MIA NFTs used as digital heirlooms, fractionalized real estate shares or access passes to venues or events." - CityCoins Community Blog
As part of the MiamiCoin mission, the expert panel will discuss the ways that NFTs can be a part of the MiamiCoin ecosystem to help not just artists but everyday residents of Miami thrive in the coming years and decades.
The panels will cover the topic from three different angles:
Vision – The long-term goals and potential impact that can be generated.
Technical – The developers share their insights about creating applications on MiamiCoin.
Creative – A deeper look at the first wave of NFT projects that are being built.
As the first CityCoin community-led, project, MiamiCoin Art Week initiatives will serve as innovative testing grounds – the results of which will go on to influence future CityCoin projects.
