The New Jersey Devils announced in a statement Monday that it will become the first NHL team to release its own non-fungible token, or NFT, in a partnership with Fanaply.
The team will sell a one-of-one "NJD EST 1982" NFT coin and a one-of-one "NJD 3x Champ" coin. Per the press release, the NFTs will feature "imagery inspired by iconic moments in Devils history, the team's vibrant fanbase and the team's recent 'Made in Jersey' brand campaign."
"The partnership between the Devils and Fanaply originated from a shared vision and desire to provide a creative vehicle for fan engagement that honors the Devils storied legacy and continued brand story in new, digital ways that will build with the debut of each new digital collectible," team president Jake Reynolds said in a statement.
