The "Lennon Connection: The NFT Collection" NFT series, in conjunction with NFT marketplace YellowHeart and Julien's Auctions, began for bidding on Monday and will begin on February 7. The White Feather Foundation will get a percentage of the proceeds from the NFT auction.
Julian would keep the tangible things, but the buyer would be the owner of the rights to the one-of-a-kind NFT. Each NFT in the collection would be available as an audio-visual collectible, with Julian Lennon himself narrating. The handwritten note by Paul McCartney for Hey Jude is thought to be the most remarkable piece that is expected to draw the highest bid. The item's NFT starts at $30,000 and goes up from there.
Julien's Auctions has sold other Beatles items in the past, bringing in millions of dollars. One of John Lennon's acoustic guitars was sold for $2.4 million, while Ringo Starr's drum kit was sold for $2.2 million and the drum head Ringo used on the "Ed Sullivan Show" in 1964 was sold for $2.1 million.
NFTs are the newest crypto fad, and many believe they will disrupt the art business. NFTs have become the latest trend in the art world, with mainstream artists and celebrities abandoning traditional auctions in favor of NFTs.
