“Now that I’ve retired from running professionally, I’ve decided to take my hunger for competition to the next level in a growing space and get involved with NFTs and Autograph,” said Usain Bolt. “I’m honored to join Autograph as they continue to add legendary athletes to the team and provide a platform that uniquely connects me with both my fans as well as new communities.”
Each owner of a Preseason Access Pass, regardless of edition, will also be granted preferential access to a future drop from Autograph on DraftKings Marketplace. While the supply of inaugural Usain Bolt NFTs is limited, fans will have opportunities to acquire certified authentic content of other prominent athletes and collections yet to be released. Following the Usain Bolt NFT drops and just in time for Halloween, a Lionsgate franchise will be dropping a new series of collectibles on Autograph.io and DraftKings Marketplace.
