Nomine(eth) includes a "special tribute" to actor Chadwick Boseman, best known for his role as Black Panther in the MCU.
On August 28, 2020, Boseman died at the age of 44 from complications from colon cancer. The organizers will send all proceeds from the sales of NFT with the actor to the Colon Cancer Foundation.
Previously, director, producer and actor Kevin Smith announced the release of his new horror film, Killroy Was Here, as an NFT.
