E-commerce giant eBay has girdi the non-fungible token (NFT) sector through a strategic partnership with Web3 company OneOf.
eBay’s exclusive NFTs will include animated and 3D interpretations of iconic athletes highlighted on Sports Illustrated covers in the past years.
To offer high-value items and heightened passion to the eBay community of buyers and sellers, NFTs emerged as an ideal stepping stone, according to Dan Block, the VP of Collectibles, Electronics, and Home at eBay.

“NFTs and blockchain technology are revolutionizing the collectibles space, and are increasingly viewed as an investment opportunity for enthusiasts. Through our partnership with OneOf, eBay is now making coveted NFTs more accessible to a new generation of collectors everywhere.”
With 142 million buyers worldwide, eBay is the second-largest e-commerce player after Amazon and seeks to render more economic opportunities through cutting-edge technologies like NFTs.
Lin Dai, OneOf’s CEO, pointed out:
“NFT'leri satın almak, satmak ve toplamak için kripto uzmanı olmanıza gerek yok. OneOf ve eBay, dönüştürücü Web3 teknolojisini kripto anadili olmayan bir sonraki 100 milyon kitlesel tüketiciye getiriyor.”
The NFT collection will comprise 13 limited editions, classified as green, gold, platinum, and diamond.
Wayne Gretzky, a Sportsman of the Year, noted:
“Kırk yıl önce Sports Illustrated'ın kapağında yer aldığım için minnettardım; bu, hayatımda çok önemli bir andı. Bu koleksiyonluk deneyimi onlarca yıldır kariyerimi takip eden hokey hayranlarıma sunmaktan onur duyuyorum.”
E-commerce players continue entering the crypto space based on the opportunities rendered. A recent study by Checkout.com vurgulanan that nearly 70% of merchants view crypto payments as game-changers needed to revolutionize business models.
