Forbes has teamed up with OKX to offer selected users of the cryptocurrency exchange fast-tracked access to its elite Web3 community, bypassing a queue of over 120,000 applicants. This partnership will allow OKX users to join an exclusive circle of “onchain content creators, builders, and innovators” by securing the coveted Legacy Pass NFT.
OKX’s Chief Marketing Officer explained, “I’m happy to announce our collaboration with Forbes, offering our onchain wallet users a fast-track application for the Legacy Pass NFT. This digital collectible unlocks a membership club uniting Web3’s brightest minds, granting access to an elite network of industry leaders.”
The Legacy Pass NFT, required for entry into this gated community, will be available to select OKX users who complete onchain and offchain tasks as part of this social campaign. These lucky users will gain VIP access to Forbes’ Web3 circle, which includes prominent figures like Yat Siu, Co-Founder and Executive Chairman of Animoca Brands, Sébastien Borget, COO of The Sandbox, and leaders from Andreessen Horowitz’s crypto division.
Holders of the Legacy Pass NFT will enjoy numerous benefits, including access to exclusive real-world Forbes events, premium subscriptions to Forbes.com, voting rights on Forbes’ Web3 list, mentorship opportunities, and even potential features in physical Forbes magazines.
Highlighting the Unshakeable Utility of NFTs
This collaboration between Forbes and OKX underscores the ongoing utility of NFTs, even as market valuations fluctuate. By leveraging onchain assets to offer real-world benefits, both organizations are bridging their communities and reinforcing the value of NFTs in the digital landscape.
Taha Ahmed, Chief Growth Officer at Forbes, remarked,
“This initiative not only showcases our commitment to fostering innovation but also provides a platform for individuals to engage with and contribute to the future of digital assets and blockchain technology.”
