Located in a small storefront in Lower Manhattan’s financial district, with a sign outside that reads “NFT ATM,” it looks like a traditional vending machine, but offers QR codes that come on slips of paper in little paper boxes. The price ranges between US$5.99 and US$420.69.
Once the QR code is scanned, the user can view their new artwork on any smartphone, laptop, or tablet.
On the Lower Manhattan site, the codes lead to two categories of digital art pieces, either a color or an image of a dove.
For Zappitell, the element of mystery is a natural extension of the digital art space. “As an NFT collector, over time, one of the things you like is the randomness of, ‘Which one are you going to take?'” she said. “So that’s one of the exciting aspects.”
With initial capital of $3 million, Neon hopes to install more vending machines in shopping malls and other public spaces.
“One of the most powerful messages of this initiative is that it uses this old world technology to enable the adoption of new world technology,” Zappitell said.
