Cricket Foundation, co-founded by former cricketer Parthiv Patel, provides fans a platform to have exclusive ownership of digital cricket memorabilia
For those who have been crazy about cricket and also hold a fancy for cryptocurrency, there's good news. The recently established Cricket Foundation (the first of its kind crypto ecosystem dedicated to the sport), co-founded by former cricketer Parthiv Patel along with Pruthvi Rao, provides fans a platform to have exclusive ownership of digital cricket memorabilia and collectibles, as both of them love to describe such items, through “cricketcrazy.io”, the world's first cricket exclusive non-fungible tokens (NFT) marketplace.
They have also launched the world's first cricket tokens which have now been listed on crypto exchanges across the country.
Speaking to NDTV, Parthiv Patel said that Cricket Foundation is an exclusive NFT marketplace, where cricket lovers would get a chance to actually own (though virtually) all the mementoes (for example the stumps' bails taken by Mohinder Amarnath after India won the 1983 cricket World Cup finals against the West Indies) associated with memorable moments of the game.
The platform apart from allowing cricket lovers to exclusively own these digital collectibles, also allows the cricketers associated with it get a chance to monetise their digital assets, thus helping them supplement their income post-retirement from the game.
