From launch of the Challenger to live reports of the Gulf Air to Larry King interviews – CNN is selling clips of its historical news as NFT’s.


The NFT saga continues to hold the fort, with several brands recognizing its value. And the latest to jump of the non-fungible token bandwagon is CNN that is all set to sell NFTs of memorable historical ‘moments.’ You heard that!

Called “Vault by CNN,” the WarnerMedia-owned cable news channel will be curating a set of digital collectibles it is calling “Moments” from its TV archives and “minting” them as NFTs using blockchain technology. After making a purchase, users will also be able to go to their own user page on the “Vault by CNN” website to look and display their “Moments.”
