NFT Artists Benefit from Johnny Depp & Amber Heard Trial



 Some creative NFT developers are capitalizing on Johnny Depp's win in the defamation lawsuit against his ex-wife Amber Heard.


Johny Depp won a dramatic court case against his ex-wife. The trial lasted 6 weeks, was broadcast live and watched by 6 million viewers.


The widespread dissemination of the information across multiple media, including in the form of memes about the case on social media platforms such as TikTok , made it almost impossible to avoid the related news. Therefore, it wasn't long before members of the crypto and NFT community jumped at the opportunity to monetize the story.

Johnny Depp developed his own NFT collection before some creatives tried to capitalize on the star's notoriety. The Never Fear Truth collection marked the star's first foray into the art and NFT markets.


The portraits in the collection, created by Johnny Depp, feature the actor's friends and heroes , such as Hunter S. Thompson and Heath Ledger. Since the NFTs were mined in January 2022, interest in the collection has increased continuously. OpenSea data also shows that interest in the NFT collection skyrocketed after the verdict was announced.

25% of proceeds from NFT sales will go to Los Angeles Children's Hospital, Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital and - in honor of Heath Ledger - the Perth Children's Hospital Foundation.


Amber Turds NFTs

The scandalous NFT project Johnny Depp's Amber Turds is an example of how Johnny Depp and Amber Heard's trial provided meme fodder for the most bizarre corners of the internet.


The collection ties in with an event that has become famous. Heard reportedly garnished the marriage bed as a parting gift of sorts for her husband.

According to the project’s own account, Johnny Depp’s Amber Turds are “5,000 lying, gold-digging, drug-abusing, fake-crying, smelly, caked, dusty Amber Turds stinking up the Ethereum blockchain.”


The collection includes quotes from the trial as well as key objects including a mega pint of wine and a makeup jar. The amber turds have only been traded to a modest extent. The total volume of the over-the-counter collection on OpenSea is currently just over 55 ETH. However, that hasn't stopped an ambitious hodler from price tagging an Amber Turd NFT at 420 ETH.


Finally, the Johnny Depp Inu memecoin proves that anything the NFT space can throw at it, good old-fashioned memecoin creators can throw at it too. Johnny Depp Inu has previously appeared in the UK's Daily Express , but remains a nanocap memcoin for now.

The 5 largest platforms for non-fungible token (NFT) collectibles

  Since the beginning of 2021, non-fungible tokens (NFT) have had no holding back and the sector is setting new records almost every day.  More and more artists, stars and brands are realizing the potential - NFT are well on their way to catapulting the crypto space into the mainstream.  But which collectibles are currently the most popular? What are NFT? NFT are unique tokens that cannot be exchanged one-for-one for an equivalent token.  Any asset that is tokenizable can be an NFT.  This includes, for example, (digital) works of art, trading cards, game items and crypto domains.  Theoretically, however, real estate or securities can also be mapped as NFT. NFTs can be used to transparently map ownership structures on a public blockchain.  This allows them to store value just like real objects, even if additional copies are easy to make.  For example, the original picture of the Mona Lisa is significantly more valuable than a photo, as everyone kno...

CARDALONIA: THE CARDANO METAVERSE OPENS THE GATES!

  Have you ever been to Cardalonia? With these words, the Cardano Metaverse called Cardalonia starts the gates. In this 3D world, developers and users can interact with each other. First of all, users have to create an individual character with which they can move online. After that you can enter one of the worlds built by developers with this character. You can also purchase your own land in the Cardano Metaverse via the marketplaces in Cardalonia . This is secured by Cardano's blockchain technology and therefore offers a relatively secure transfer of ownership. Since these are only digital plots of land, it is not yet entirely clear when the plots of land are purchased whether they can also be sold again in the future. A possible profit cannot be estimated at the moment. In Cardalonia, the cryptocurrency Lonia is used. The maximum amount of tokens in circulation is 100,000,000. The team consists of Alice Sand (Co-Founder), Vasil Air (CTO) and Dustan Water (Fullstack Developer). T...

Cardano: This is the vision that founder Charles Hoskinson has

  The Altcoin Cardano has tended to decline in recent weeks.  The Alonzo upgrade was supposed to bring improvements, but it soon turned out to be a disappointment.  Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson presented his vision for the cyber motto in a live Twitter video. • Cardano in the last few months under pressure • Charles Hoskinson explains his Cardano vision via Twitter • Security and privacy at the center The cryptocurrency  Cardano  has had a difficult few months.  While founder Charles Hoskinson's cyber motto has had a strong run in 2021, it has been steadily downhill in recent months.  Cardano is faced with some difficulties.  The so-called Alonzo upgrade went live in mid-September, for which crypto fans had high hopes, but which soon turned out to be a disappointment.  The upgrade should make it possible to use smart contracts on the cryptocurrency as well.  It soon turned out, however, that although these were entered into Cardano,...
