Whoever buys the NFT will get an exclusive metaverse version of Mike Novogratz himself. The buyer will also be invited to join the Rotary club, which is made up of investors, entrepreneurs, big benefactors, and many others. The Club pass makes it possible for people to attend Rotary events all over the world, usually it’s given to a person who donates more than $100,000 in total, and it can be re-sold with the NFT token in the future.

The NFT launch is also supported by X10 Agency, one of the leading blockchain and crypto PR agencies worldwide, and has worked with big names in the crypto industry.

Details About the NFT Launch

The Mike Novogratz NFT auction will begin December 21, 2021, at exactly 10 AM UTC and will end December 23, 2021, at 10 AM UTC. Anyone and everyone can participate in the auction to own the Mike Novogratz NFT and the benefits that come with it.

It is not every day that one gets exclusive access to seasoned and experienced investors and business moguls. However, this benefit awaits anyone who buys the Novogratz NFT. The person is just buying a non-fungible token; he is also buying “access to billionaires”.

He is an ex-hedge fund manager and was ranked a billionaire by Forbes in 2007 before the global financial crisis of 2008. However, he regained his fortune after investing in digital currencies.
