STAN Brings India's First Gaming Creator And Esports Athletes-Inspired NFTs
STAN’s NFT owners will get some extra perks as well, which include a chance to play games with your favorite creator, live on stream.
STAN, the Bengaluru-headquartered blockchain-based esports fan engagement startup, has announced the rollout of thousands of non-fungible tokens (NFTs) inspired by over 50 popular gaming creators and esports athletes. This is the first time that gaming content creators are getting such prominent recognition from the crypto universe, as so far in the country, NFT collections are only announced by Bollywood and sporting celebrities such as Salman Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Yuvraj Singh, and Dinesh Karthik.
For those unaware, NFTs are unique digital entities that are marked by exclusive ownership. If you own an NFT, you can rest assured that no one else will be able to own the exact same NFT with the exact same attributes, unless you decide to sell or trade them for other NFTs.
STAN’s new India gaming-inspired digital collection comprises over 10,000 NFTs, along with over 2,000 Limited Digital Collectibles (LDCs). Top collaborators include the likes of Jonathan, GHATAK, Total Gaming, Lokesh Gamer, and AS Gaming.

STAN’s NFT owners will get some extra perks as well, which include shoutouts and personalised messages from the creators on Instagram, meetups, as well as a chance to play games with your favorite creator, live on stream.
