NFTs are different from other digital assets such as Bitcoin in that they are digital tokens with unique characteristics, with metadata inside them acting as a permanent and unalterable record of what the token represents. They can be used as digital authentication certificates for assets such as artwork as well as unique digital collectables.
Coinsilium said the RedFOX agreement will involve the delivery of a specifically commissioned digital collectable project which it expects to be able to announce in the coming weeks. It added that the agreement can subsequently be extended to cover services for other virtual asset and digital collectable marketplace initiatives currently under evaluation.
