American media personality, Paris Hilton is the latest to join the non-fungible token (NFT) movement by launching her very own collection. Collaborating with designer, Blake Kathryn, Hilton’s collection includes three unique pieces.
Paris Hilton Launches Three NFTs
Socialite Paris Hilton has set up a collection of three NFT pieces. The two pieces dubbed “Hummingbird in my metaverse” and “Legend of love” were up for 11 editions. Each piece was sold out for $10,000 each, bringing a total of $220,000.
