Overview 

Cultural shifts have always come in stages. First the creators, the people who commit themselves to an idea. Next come the early adopters. People looking for the frontier, those who are looking for new ways to stay ahead of the masses. Then the curve starts. Influencers, taking their cues from the early adopters, situate themselves at the first hint of an upward trend. These people have the unique position of the means of swaying public opinion and the means to position themselves comfortably on the curve. This is the exact point on the curve that MyMoMint looks to capitalize on.

What is it about these last arbiters of taste and acceptance? From where do they earn our trust and the power that comes with it? Often, they have captured our imagination. They have already placed themselves in our lexicon through their accolades in sports, entertainment, art, or culture. That is exactly what sports culture, with its embedded thirst for collecting, has done exactly that for NFTs. MyMoMint has hooked itself to this niche to help those immersed in sports culture but new to NFTs make their digital assets tangible.

Designed to mimic the feel of a trading card in your hand, MyMoMint’s MVP retails for $79.99. The digital art display allows users to set a slideshow of upto six moments (depending on file size) on their device. The MVP displays moments on a 7″, 1080p screen in a constant loop. Currently, the model is image only with no audio and a battery life of one hour. MyMoMint ships with a charging stand that accentuates the display experience.

Niche can be a dangerous thing to play with. As companies such as Canvia can relate to, advantages can be turned into disadvantages as time goes on.
