Speaking on the occasion, Jatin Pathi, co-founder CIC, Meebits DAO & Producer of DAZE said, “In the last couple of years, the demand for NFTs has grown significantly and many artists across the world are utilizing the power of technology to showcase their passion. We are extremely proud and thrilled to be able to provide a platform to India’s finest digital artists from various genres and platforms at DAZE. This is just the beginning, and we look forward to expanding this initiative with future collaborations that will support the Indian art community”.

The exhibition is the first to present the concept of NFTs as both an emerging artistic medium as well as a revolutionary vehicle for commerce within the art and digital asset market.

Vishesh Chopra, co-producer, designer & entrepreneur added “There’s a lot of misinformation with regards to cryptocurrencies and their use cases, even now after all these years. I’ve been trying to change that by organizing meetups and working with the Indian crypto community on various fronts since 2016. I believe crypto art is a historic movement worth documenting and celebrating, and organizing DAZE is a step in that direction”.

Priyanka Balwa aka. Cyber Shakti, co-producer, curator, NFT Marketer & NFT artist herself said “NFTs have presented a plethora of opportunities to natively digital artists like myself & I’d like to pay it forward. With DAZE, we have dual objectives, of not only showcasing NFT talent, but to present valuable engagement for everyone in attendance. The idea really is to build a nexus of web3.0’s most enterprising cohorts & set the perfect stage for limitless possibilities”.
