Time magazine is embracing the blockchain digital art movement by auctioning three nonfungible tokens, or NFTs, inspired by some of its most iconic covers throughout the decades.
The American news magazine announced Monday that the three NFTs will be sold both individually and as a collection on SuperRare, a digital-art trading platform, through Wednesday. The collection is based on the theme “Is ___ Dead?”, which refers to a series of provocative typological covers inspired by the original April 8, 1966 rendition, “Is God Dead?” As Time noted, this was the first cover in the magazine’s history to include only typography with no image.
