Sep 13, 2024, 01:23 AM

Azuki has announced the launch of Anime 2.0, a new platform that integrates web3 technology to enhance the anime experience. The centerpiece of this launch is the acquisition of the domain anime.com, which is worth $10,000,000, although Azuki reportedly paid a fraction of that. Users can join the waitlist on the site and receive limited edition collectibles, which are NFTs built on the AnimeChain private testnet. The initiative aims to make crypto more accessible to anime fans by providing a seamless onboarding process that bridges web2 and web3 technologies. Azuki's collaboration with AnimeCoin and the involvement of ZAGABOND are key components of this project, which seeks to create unique consumer experiences and drive mass adoption of web3 in the anime community.
