The “Nobody” NFT Collection

“Nobody” made its debut on the Moonbox platform, an AI and Web3 startup based in Hong Kong, specializing in launching AI-powered NFTs inspired by the arts and film industry.

Jacky Cao, co-founder of Moonbox, highlighted that users will have the opportunity to interact and engage in conversations with each Nobody NFT character, gaining insights into their personalities, interests, and backstories. Moreover, holders of Nobody NFTs will enjoy the privilege of participating in the secondary creation of Nobody characters using exclusive digital features and tools.
