Casio has entered into strategic partnerships with a group of creators who will be responsible for designing the collection. Each piece of artwork in the collection will feature an iconic Casio watch model.
In collaboration with Astar’s zero-knowledge Ethereum Virtual Machine (zkEVM), renowned watchmaker Casio has unveiled its new NFT collection. The release of this collection coincides with Casio’s 50th anniversary, making it a significant milestone. Astar Network also made a major announcement regarding its partnership with Casio on X.
The collaboration between Casio and Astar zkEVM, a powerful alliance between Astar and Polygon, is crucial for enhancing scalability. Yoki Origins, a gamified user onboarding experience, was introduced a few months ago by Astar zkEVM, which is powered by the Polygon Chain Development Kit (CDK). This latest partnership with Casio incorporates the Yoki Origins experience into the Ethereum Layer-2 scaling solution.
The Yoki Origins collection will feature the Casio YoPort capsule machine, showcasing various creations by the watchmaker. Interested individuals will have the option to choose between two versions of the YoPort from Casio. The first version offers one NFT, while the second version offers eight NFTs. Reveal Day is scheduled for May 10, when the artwork for this item will finally be unveiled.
Casio has partnered with talented creators who will design the digital memorabilia for this collection. The NFT series for Casio watches comprises eight unique pieces of artwork created by different artists. Each artwork will feature an iconic Casio watch model.
The sale of Casio watch NFTs presents an opportunity to win exciting prizes, including an original G-Shock watch and an Astar valued at 10,000 yen (approximately $64). The Astar zkEVM logo will be prominently displayed on the watch.
