Somali artists are joining the world of NFTs. And the Internet Society Chapter of Somalia is excited to collaborate and support this new initiative. The main objective of Lahaansho which was launched a month ago, see http://www.lahaansho.com/ is to support the Somalia artists gain global exposure and gain financial rewards from their hard work.
NFTs are hard to explain, and I will encourage you to read this or click on this link https://www.theverge.com/22310188/nft-explainer-what-is-blockchain-crypto-art-faq and bookmark for your future reference. This is an exciting project and we hope many Somali artists will take advantage of this. The first-ever Somali artist work that minted and NFTed was sold last week. This is a huge step forward for the Somali arts world… more on this standby.
Yes, we heard you and your comments are welcome. My quick reaction to the emails we received regarding the ‘gun’ is to point out that this is artistic expression without political or any other agenda. We welcome and promote freedom of expression and creative artistic expression.
