I’m really excited to see how the community reacts to all we have coming.” Yat Siu, executive chairman and co-founder of Animoca Brands, shared, “Wanderers is a prime example of innovation in IP, the brand succeeds thanks to its art, storytelling, and dedicated community of fans, and its NFTs are an excellent entry point into a universe of gaming, music, and entertainment.”
