During a press conference at the FTX Arena, the organizers mentioned the importance of NFTs for the tech and art ecosystem and  how technology can change the world. 

“Not only do these new digital contracts create a transformative vehicle for the union of art and tech, they also represent the evolution of how we interact with the arts and with each other in a decentralized setting.” says Michelle Abbs, Managing Director of Mana Tech.

About Mana Common 

Mana Common is a platform for neighborhood revitalization.
We believe that truly integrated neighborhoods, where residents can live, work, and play, are the wave of the future. As such, the divisions of Mana Common reflect the most basic elements upon which a community is built: Culture, Commerce, Technology, Property, Agriculture, and Social Impact.
The name, “Mana Common,” originates from our belief that our world is becoming more and more connected. Rather than focusing on our differences, our shared humanity gives us common ground, common decency, and common knowledge upon which a truly thriving community ecosystem must be built.
Using the Mana Common process, we begin building community ecosystems long before any construction begins and continue to nurture them long afterwards. This allows for rapid, meaningful, permanent vitality for a neighborhood.
