South Korean ruling party to issue NFTs for fundraising in presidential election
- aspenmayer 5y agoThis is amazing. One for everyone’s 2022 bingo cards! We’re verging ever closer to weirdest possible timeline. In case it’s unclear, this is referring to South Korea, not North Korea. I have no idea how North Korea or South Korea usually fund their elections, so if any subject-matter experts can enlighten us, it would be much appreciated. > The ruling Democratic Party of Korea (DPK) is set to become the world's first political party to issue non-fungible tokens (NFTs) for fundraising in a presidential election, according to DPK presidential candidate Lee Jae-myung's campaign committee, Sunday.
