Nominees for The 2021 NFT of the Year for the RA! Awards
Last week’s RA! Awards gave us Best PFP NFT, Best Metaverse NFT and the Best NFT that Tells a Story. And, we’ll be honest, the winners really do tell a story -- the price of Cryptopunks and other NFTs don’t matter to fans. Just art. Just the creator. Just the story.
The 1st Place winner of each of The RA! Award are nominated for The 2021 NFT of the Year. And, the nominees are…
Best NFT That Tells a Story in 2021
This year was full of stories. From the birth of the PFP movement, resurgence of CryptoPunks, and Beeple’s “First 5000 Days”, each NFT brought us a new chapter in Internet history. The Best NFT That Tells a Story encapsulated many of those chapters.
Winners
1st // "Internet Renaissance" by @ourZORA
2nd // "Hardship of Life" by @aslanmehmet
3rd // "Twilight" by @HanbenP
