developers MADworld has partnered with popular content creator Airrack to drop NFTs dedicated to his upcoming Xtreme Pong tournament. <\/p>\n<p>Airrack has around 2.58 million <a

is hosting a live-streamed ping pong tournament on Nov. 13 at 1 pm PST that will feature other content creators such as Zach King, Brent Rivera, ZHC and Bryce Hall. <\/p>\n<p>The tournament will feature on Airrack\u2019s Youtube channel, and it will see a total of 12 highly affluent creators battle it out for a stake of the $120,000 prize pool. <\/p>\n<p>As part of the event, Madworld will serve as the official NFT development partner and create NFTs that give the hodlers voting powers over future Xtreme events. In an announcement shared with Cointelegraph, Eric Decker (Airrack) emphasized that: <\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cIt\u2019s important to me to engage my subscribers and give them actual control over the channel\u2019s outcome &amp; direction.\u201d <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>MADworld will provide three tiers of memorabilia NFTs for the event, with the most common being NFTs representing event gear used by the competitors. Competing artists will create unique digital art NFTs during \u201clive art battles\u201d that will take place during the Xtreme Pong event. <\/p>\n<p>The firm will also partner with each creator to auction a rare \u201capex\u201d NFT tied to their physical paddle used during the event. <\/p>\n<p> \u201cThe Xtreme Pong format is an example of how the right utility can drive demand for any NFT. It will be one of the most innovative live-stream events of 2021 and will set new industry standards,\u201d said Jordan Heathfield, MADworld\u2019s Head of Marketing as part of the announcement. <\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"RAREPEPE_sells_for_500K_in_auction\"><\/span>RAREPEPE sells for $500K in auction <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>MetaKovan, the NFT collector who famously bought Beeple\u2019s First 5000 Days NFT for $69 million earlier this year, sn<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ed up a RAREPEPE NFT for $500,000 via auction last week. <\/p>\n<p>On day three of the NFY.NYC. event on Friday, MetaKovan purchased the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Series<\/a> 1 \u201cRAREPEPE, RAREPEPE NAKAMOTO Card 1\u201d token that depicts a blend of the beloved Pepe the Frog meme and a photo Satoshi Nakamoto, a Japanese man who was mistaken for the pseudonymous Bitcoin creator who bears the same name. <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\u2728We\u2019d like to congratulate MetaKovan on his winning bid of $500,000 on the RAREPEPE NAKAMOTO Card 1, Series 1 (2016)\u2728 <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Rarepepe?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Rarepepe<\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/rarepepeBook?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#rarepepeBook<\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NFTNYC?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#NFTNYC<\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NFTNYC2021?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#NFTNYC2021<\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/MintGoldDust?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#MintGoldDust<\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NFT_NYC?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@NFT_NYC<\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/theog__?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@theog__<\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LeValleyKelly?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@LeValleyKelly<\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/eleonorabrizi?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@eleonorabrizi<\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MetaKovan?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@MetaKovan<\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/pXv3iPYLxN\">pic.twitter.com\/pXv3iPYLxN<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Mint Gold Dust (@MintGoldDust) <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MintGoldDust\/status\/1456410314644328450?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 4, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>The auction was hosted by Mint Gold, who was celebrating the launch of its 24\/7 artist marketplace and creative studio for NFT creators on the same day. <\/p>\n<p>Mint Gold said the NFT was valued at $25,000 earlier this year but has grown in popularity amid the booming growth of the NFT sector. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cDuring the last NFT.NYC in early 2020, 99% of the people that I mentioned RAREPEPE or other vintage NFTs to, did not know what they were,\u201d said Theo Goodman, an auctioneer at the event.<\/p>\n<p> \u201cThis year, every person that I asked knew what it was.
