Shopify customers can now connect their crypto wallets to stores on the platform to validate they own specific NFTs.
This activation will then give them access to things pre-sales for drops, experiences in real life and exclusive content or merchandise. The company calls this 'tokengated' commerce.
The feature was already being tested in beta-mode, by invitation only, to a select group of merchants with an NFT collection, but is now available to all merchants anywhere in the world. The news comes as digital asset conference NFT.NYC takes place in Times Square. On Tuesday, entrepreneurs, NFT artists, designers, and businesses took the stage of Edison Ballroom to discuss fashion, e-commerce and NFTs. One theme that emerged from the panel discussions was the increasing role that utility will play in ensuring NFTs hold their value longterm.About Author
