Press Release

3air announced the launch of its NFT marketplace today. The marketplace is a part of the 3air platform and features creations by African Artists.

The goal of the marketplace is to provide a stage for African artists to showcase their work, and connect with collectors and enthusiasts around the globe.

Transactions will be made in BUSD, and the buyer mints the NTF at the time of purchase, making it easy for users to collect and trade their favorite artworks.

The 3air app and marketplace is available at https://app.3air.io/. It is compatible with Metamask and Wallet Connect compatible wallets.

Wider crypto adoption in Africa

3air is on a mission to empower millions of people in African countries through blockchain and banking. Cryptocurrency adoption is on the rise on the African continent, yet the challenge lies in bringing the end user online through a stable internet connection.

With 3air, African users can gain access to high-speed broadband internet and join the world of blockchain and banking in a seamless onboarding experience.

Empowering African artists

On the recently launched 3air marketplace, artists from all over Africa can list their NFTs free of charge and set the royalty they expect to be paid.

While NFTs will be issued on Binance Smart Chain, all NFTs will be cross-chain compatible in alignment with 3air’s vision of the future being multichain.

The launch of the NFT marketplace is in line with 3air’s mission to empower African artists and help them get exposure for their work.
