Fayyr Launches First NFT Marketplace on NEAR for Social Impact Organizations
Fayyr is a newly launched NFT platform that brings together art and art lovers channeling their creative forces and passion towards meaningful social actions.
Founded by a professor and two students from the University of Waterloo, Fayyr’s vision is to empower global participation in an environment that supports social good, using emerging blockchain technology.
The team at Fayyr is addressing a gap in the current NFT market by providing a space for charities, non-profits, and social impact organizations to participate in the crypto space through donations from NFT purchases.
How Fayyr Works
Fayyr provides a unique online marketplace for users to support social impact causes and artists at the same time. Artists upload their creations to Fayyr and earmark a percentage of the proceeds to support an impact organization of their choosing.
Art lovers, on the other hand, can get access to the latest digital art while supporting their causes and enjoying NFT technology on NEAR’s carbon neutral blockchain.
Coming Next
After launching during NEARCON, Fayyr has been rapidly onboarding partner artists and charities to expand their presence in the NEAR Ecosystem and throughout the cryptocurrency space.
Following launch, the Fayyr team continues to improve its easy-to-use platform to bring a more immersive experience to users, while continuing to connect charities, artists, and their supporters to the crypto economy, and to each other.
