In a positive twist for the nonfungible token (NFT) mania, Canadian singer Kiesza backs an NFT drop called MetaMoves in partnership with NFT marketplace Portion aiming to provide funds for patients who need prosthetics.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In an interview with Cointelegraph, Kiesza said that being someone who experienced an accident, the singer empathizes with those who face the challenges of losing a limb. She explained that: <\/p>\n
\u201cMovements are at the core of everything we do, as we understand the central role they play in people’s identities. […] You can only imagine how unbearable it would be to add to the mental and physical challenges of losing a limb, the lack of resources.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The singer believes in Web3\u2019s capability to help people. Also, she noted that helping people to regain this ability to move is extremely important and aligns with their mission at MetaMoves.\u00a0Although the drop was backed by the popular singer and had good intentions, the highest bid as the auction closed was only 0.5 Ether (ETH), around $1000 at the time of writing.<\/p>\n
\nThe auction has ended!
