NFT Wave: Welcome To The Oceaverse

AS THE WORLD MOVES TO EXPLORE the exciting world of cryptocurrency and NFTs, so should conservation.

The Ocean Metaverse – or Oceaverse – a digital proxy of the Earth’s vital reefs and marine ecosystems, allows asset owners to be stewards of these special habitats.

Oceaverse is a limited collection of NFTs representing the world's most endangered marine reef ecosystems, reefs and oceans. The NFTs are created by myself and a world-class roster of ocean-loving artists and photographers, including the likes of Michael DK, Peter Zuccarini, Lucie Drlikova, Lexi Laine, Enric Gener, Andy Brandy Casagrande IV, Ian Takahashi, Jenny Baumert, Jason Washington, Gutsy Tuason, and Julian Wainwright.
