Weezer x RAREZ OK Crypto Series 1
On a melodic note, April 28 brought the fan-favorite OK Crypto collection to life. Starring the band Weezer, the collection consists of 8,000 packs and 125,000 NFTs to celebrate their newest album OK Human.
The collection includes 12 ultra-rare “Golden Tickets” that are redeemable for a physical toy by famed toy artist Dan Polydoris.
This is an example of what’s to come with WAX’s vIRL® (virtual + In Real Life) technology. They allow collectors to digitally own an item (as an NFT) and then trade, gift, or claim the physical item in real life.
