ABOUT AKOJO VERSE
This groundbreaking project brings artisan makers from the global majority in to Web 3.0 and merges physical craft with digital innovation. Our goal is to democratise NFTs, provide financial opportunity to those not as digitally connected, and immortalise forever the values and traditions of craftsmanship in digital form. We are building a community that cherishes the preservation of our people and planet through collections, collaboration and storytelling. Welcome to AKOJO VERSE.
