POG’s NFT Collectibles: 90’s Kids Nostalgia Come True
Relive the nostalgia of the 90s with POG’s NFT collection, featuring unique artwork and icons from popular crypto characters for each of the 3,800 collectibles. Don’t miss out on this exciting new way to collect and trade POGs.
The classic toy game from the 90s, POGs, is making a comeback as NFT collectibles. The World POG Federation (TWPF) has partnered with Origin Protocol for a POGs NFT coin on the Ethereum Blockchain that started on 6 April 2023.
The collection contains as many as 3,800 NFT articles with its own unique code and artwork, with every coin worth 0.049 ETH, which is about $92 as of this writing. It may be much more expensive than an actual POG, but you’ll be surprised at the additional features this comeback will bring.
But first, let’s take a trip down memory lane and remember what these toys are.
What are POGs?
POGs were a classic staple for all kids growing up in the 90s. They were small disc objects that kids used to collect and fight against other POG collectors. Players would stack them on top of each other and one player would throw them in an attempt to land them face up. The winner gets to keep the enemy POGs used during the battle.
An important factor in the classic POGs was its collectability. Children often compared the attractive characters they had embedded in their POGs. Honestly, the primary reason kids even want to fight each other is to gamble the chance of getting another player’s POG.
Whether it featured their favorite Pokemon or favorite anime character – they simply had to get their hands on that POG. Now as adults, engaging in NFTs (non-fungible tokens) has achieved a similar satisfaction.
The rules may have changed, but the name of the game has certainly remained the same.
What to expect?
POG’s NFT collection will not only be a classic digital collectible, but it will also have additional benefits, such as using them in upcoming Ethereum-based games in the summer. In addition, the artwork on the collectibles will feature crypto-inspired projects such as Bored Ape Yacht Club and MoonBirds.
The collaboration between The World POG Federation and Origin Protocol is an exciting development for fans of POGs and NFT collectors alike. By harnessing the power of blockchain technology, the companies hope to create a new and engaging way for fans to collect and trade POGs.
Final thoughts
In conclusion, POG’s NFT collection is a nostalgic and exciting development for fans of the classic 90s toy game. With the added benefits of using them in upcoming Ethereum-based games and featuring crypto-inspired artwork, POG’s NFT collection is sure to be a hit with collectors and players alike.
