HONG KONG, March 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Aurora borealis is a natural phenomenon only happens in wintertime. To share the beauty of aurora seeing through his eyes, Anson Pierre, the world-famous aurora hunter and chairman and founder of the Aurora Association, today announced the launch of his first Aurora Hunter NFT collection on 16 March 2022.
“I am thrilled to announce my first NFT endeavor, which embodies my passion for aurora photography. It is a milestone to achieve in the metaverse and unlock an opportunity for me to express the purity and beauty of the aurora borealis as well as the culture and traditions in the Arctic circle through an innovative approach. It also broadens my horizon by exploring the new metaverse with other participants and connecting a group of Aurora Hunters from around the world online and offline,” Dr. Pierre stated.
“Chasing the light” is not just for individuals. Dr. Pierre founded the Aurora Association which is headquartered in Russia with branches in Canada, Hong Kong and other countries, aiming to protect the polar regions by sharing the breathtaking view of the aurora. He added, “Aurora means blessing, safeguarding and appreciation, which aligns with our mission to protect the polar regions as well as the globe as a whole. To achieve, part of the earnings will be put for charitable donations for organizing more public education programs on polar protection.”
Mr. Rono Kwong, the technical consultant for this NFT project and Managing Director of Gimmick Box, said, “Turning aurora image into animated NFT is a challenging but rewarding experience, we are proud to launch the first of its kind in the NFT spectrum. This Aurora Hunter NFT collection of 999 unique NFTs is set to debut on our own platform Aurorahunter.io and open for auction on the OpenSea platform, priced at 0.18 Ethereum (ETH) each. Each NFT is one-of-a-kind art piece offering collectors wholehearted text description and details by Anson about the moments that series of aurora being captured, all reflecting his devotion and respect to the great nature. Later, Aurora Hunter will collaborate with shopping malls, flagship stores, art galleries and other venues in different metaverse, including spaces in Sandbox and Decentraland to organize multiple Aurora Moment exhibitions, of which the revenue and admission fees will be shared with the owners of Aurora Hunter NFT Collection.”
In March 2022, Aurora Hunter NFT will host a series of events to offer extra benefits for the NFT collectors – passing on the extraordinary skills and techniques in hunting aurora. Aurora Hunter NFT will also give away a bonus of 0.5 ETH to each corresponding participant through a lucky draw and randomly airdrop 5 aurora NFT to other minters.
Dr. Pierre concluded, “The launch of the animated Aurora Hunter NFT is just the beginning, our ultimate goal is to create an Aurora Space in the metaverse where everyone can have a whole new approach in experiencing the beauty of aurora.
