On the 16th, Nex Group <6634> announced the launch of the second NFT manga project "Signals." The company's consolidated subsidiary, Jitsugyo no Nihon Digital, along with the Business Development Department of Jitsugyo no Nihonsha Rights, will collaborate with Kaika Financial Holdings, which operates the NFT sales platform "Zaif INO," to sell the second installment of the "NFT Manga Project" that supports the talents of new manga artists. Support-type sales will begin on December 16, 2024, and investment-type sales will commence on December 23, 2024.
The NFT manga project aims to create a new form of manga publishing where reader support is directly linked to publishing. It provides a mechanism for readers to support their favorite works and contribute to their success. There are support-type and investment-type NFT mangas; support-type manga NFTs offer buyers not only the chance to read the manga but also special experiences such as being credited in the end credits of the work or appearing as a character in the story. Investment-type manga NFTs allow buyers to be involved in manga publishing as editorial collaborators and earn royalties from the works.
