Syed Saddiq is probably the first Malaysian politician to ever get into NFTs. Former Chief Minister of Sabah Shafie Apdal will also launch his own collection 'soon' for NFT4HOPE.
Usually, I would imagine that politicians would want to play it safe and stay away from something as controversial and new as NFTs. But the NFT4HOPE collection aims to fundraise donations for Malaysian flood victims. So… even if would hurt the environment in the long run, it’s for a cause that needs immediate help and attention.
Each of the four Syed Saddiq NFTs seen on the site, created by Malaysian artist Jaee Tee, has been labelled as “Super Rare” and “Ultra Rare”. NFT4HOPE explains that “Ultra Rare” means that there is only one of that specific “print” available. “Super Rare” means that there are 10 “copies” of the specific “print”—which… kind of defeats the purpose of “one-of-a-kind” NFTs.
Besides Syed Saddiq, former Chief Minister of Sabah Shafie Apdal will also be launching his own NFT4HOPE collection “soon”, along with TV host and former Miss Universe Malaysia Deborah Henry. There is no information of when those NFTs will launch, though. And while Syed Saddiq’s collection is announced, the NFTs aren’t on sale yet. There also isn’t a price range for them yet, nor is there any information on when the tokens will be on sale.
