What is the initiative of the charity?
The initiative of the charity, Futureverse Foundation, is based on helping to empower the next generation of artists, with the help of using blockchain technology and web3. The NFT studio will be situated in New Zealand, and the foundation will support projects using the nomination process. Keanu Reeves and Alexandra Grant will be funding ten projects per year.
What did Keanu Reeves and Alexandra Grant say in the interview about the charity?
While he was in a conversation with Artnet News, Alexandra Grant said, “Our mission is to explore how the technology of web3 and the metaverse can support communities coming from diverse backgrounds. We are in the very early planning stages, but I believe that what we are doing will really have a positive impact on artistic philanthropy in the months and years to come”.
Keanu Reeves added, “I am honored to be joining Non-Fungible Labs’ efforts in cooperation with Alexandra Grant for the extraordinary program and opportunity of the Futureverse Foundation, in support of artists and creators globally.”
After the interviews, we know that the use of NFTs doesn’t necessarily mean that they will have to interact with a digital component. Alexandra Grant said, “What we are trying to do is show how blockchain technology and the world of crypto can be used to create new forms of economic agency”.
