Origin Protocol Announcements

💥 Origin NFT Platform Powers Record-Setting $11.7M Auction with 3LAU. 🔹The music industry and NFT's have been changed forever. This was the consensus of industry figures from music, art & crypto. 🔹In 2020 over $250m in NFTs changed hands. The rate of growth in NFT sales, trade volume & innovation in the space is exponential. 🔹NFTs have the potential to disrupt a wide range of industries and represent a massive disruptive opportunity that can touch virtually every aspect of global culture. 🔹Origin has been inundated with inbound interest from household-name artists, musicians & executives from a wide range of creative industries. This auction is the first of many, many to come. 🔹The Origin NFT Platform is already seen as the #1 leader in the NFT space and we believe the product we offer is the superior choice versus more generic NFT marketplaces for creators. 👉 https://medium.com/originprotocol/origin-nft-platform-powers-record-setting-11-7m-auction-with-3lau-c30a6812192c
