OKX, a leading company in the Web3 technology sector, has formed a partnership with Forbes to enable OKX Wallet users to access the Legacy Pass, an exclusive NFT that brings together creators and innovators in the Web3 world.

Let’s see all the details below. 

The innovative partnership between OKX Wallet and Forbes opens new opportunities for NFT creators and innovators

As anticipated, OKX, one of the most cutting-edge aziende in the technology Web3 landscape, has recently announced a partnership with Forbes, the renowned media giant.

The collaboration aims to offer OKX Wallet users the opportunity to obtain the “Legacy Pass”, an exclusive NFT (Non-Fungible Token) reserved for members of a selected community. 

This step represents an important evolution in the use of NFTs, going beyond the concept of a simple digital collectible and transforming it into a gateway to tangible benefits and a high-level network.

The “Legacy Pass” is an NFT based on Ethereum that Forbes has created with the intent of bringing together under one banner the content creators, builders, and innovators of Web3.

With an offer limited to only 1,917 units, the pass aims to be much more than a symbol of prestige: it is a true tool that offers numerous benefits to those who manage to obtain it.

All the advantages of the Legacy Pass

Among the advantages associated with the Legacy Pass are exclusive access to high-profile events such as the prestigious Under30 Summit and the possibility to influence the Forbes Web3 list through voting rights. 

Still, a premium subscription to Forbes.com with advanced market analysis, and mentorship opportunities with members of the Forbes Inner Circle and other pass holders. 

Furthermore, the names of the holders of the Legacy Pass will be recognized within the renowned magazine Forbes, further consolidating their status within the Web3 community.

One of the most interesting features of this collaboration is the possibility, for OKX Wallet users, to have their application for the Legacy Pass reviewed on a priority basis.

OKX Wallet is indeed the only onchain wallet to offer this accelerated review option, reserved exclusively for those who submit their application through OKX Drops. 

The candidates who pass the selection can then proceed with the minting of their Legacy Pass by connecting their wallet to the dedicated page on Forbes.

This initiative represents a new frontier for the use of NFTs, which are evolving from simple collectibles into real tools with concrete utility in the real world. 

OKX, with this partnership, aims to redefine the way creators, builders, and innovators interact with digital assets, offering them opportunities for networking, mentoring, and personal and professional growth.

Some statements

The Chief Marketing Officer of OKX, Haider Rafique, commented on the matter as follows: 

“At OKX, we are redefining the way creators, builders, and innovators interact with digital assets. Through this partnership, we are demonstrating the diversity of NFT utilities, transforming them from simple collectibles into portals for real benefits. These advantages offer holders valuable connections, networking opportunities, and mentorship in their personal and professional experiences.”

Even Taha Ahmed, Chief Growth Officer of Forbes, expressed his enthusiasm for this collaboration:

“We are excited to collaborate with OKX to bring this unique opportunity to the Web3 community. This initiative not only demonstrates our commitment to promoting innovation, but also offers a platform for individuals to engage and contribute to the future of digital assets and blockchain technology.”

The partnership between OKX and Forbes is a striking example of how emerging technologies can be leveraged to create new forms of value and connection within the digital world. 

In an increasingly digital world, where online interactions are becoming a central component of our lives, initiatives like the Legacy Pass represent a window into the future. 

A future in which the boundaries between the physical and digital worlds become increasingly thin, and where participation in exclusive online communities can lead to unique opportunities in the real world.

BFC Media, the media and digital company leader in information on personal business and financial products, listed on the Milan Stock Exchange and owner of magazines such as Forbes Italia and Robb Report Italia, announces the creation of BFC DigitalArt, the new division dedicated to digital art and NFTs. 

NFTs for sale on OpenSea

The debut platform on which the NFTs will be published and sold will be OpenSea and the first work will be the cover number one of the magazine Robb Report Italia, designed by the artist Lorenzo Petrantoni, a world-renowned graphic designer who has won many awards including V&A Illustration Awards, London International Awards, New York Festival American Illustration, Cresta International Advertising Awards. 

The covers of Forbes Italia become NFTs

To follow are NFTs of past and future Forbes Italia covers, as well as original works that go well beyond just covers. Given the publisher’s collaborations and contacts with countless celebrities on the Italian social and cultural scene, the ambition is to publish NFTs of various kinds, certainly artistic, but not only. 

They could be backstage photos, unpublished interviews, collections of old issues of the various magazines of the Group and much more. The whole project will revolve around the website BFCDigitalArt.com, which will act as the main gallery, which in turn will exploit platforms such as OpenSea.io and SuperRare.com for auctions and real sales of NFTs with corresponding writing in Blockchain. 

What are non-fungible tokens

A non-fungible token (NFT) is a “digital asset” stored on a blockchain that unequivocally proves ownership of the digital work linked to it, an image, audio, video, architectural design, and any other creative product. Stored in digital wallets, Wallets, are created in a single piece or in a limited and numbered edition, thus acquiring an exclusive and valuable status. 

Denis Masetti, President of BFC Media, said:

 “We decided it was only right to share with the world our immense catalog, which in fact represents a true collection of works of art. Digital art represents an opportunity for all those artists who, thanks to NFTs, will finally be able to see their talent recognized; in fact, digital art has always been undervalued because it is freely available, but the advent of NFTs is changing all that”. 

Federico Morgantini, head of the BFC DigitalArt division, explained:

“The goal is to create a limited and exclusive number of digital works each month. NFTs will not only incorporate the works but also other rights and opportunities to make the experience with our readers more comprehensive and media-rich”.
