Cool Cats NFT Announces Collaboration With TIME Magazine: How You Can Win A Free Cool Cat

A fast-rising NFT project announced a collaboration with one of the most well-known magazines of all time in a move that could bring continued validation to the non-fungible tokens space.

What Happened: Cool Cats, an NFT project of 9,999 blue cats that launched earlier in 2021, is collaborating with TIME magazine.

“Wow, what a crazy TIME to be alive. We are honored and privileged to announce a limited edition drop with one of the most iconic and well-respected companies out there, TIME magazine!” the Cool Cats team said in a blog post.

The partnership comes with the help of TIME magazine President Keith Grossman vocally supporting the Cool Cats and other NFTs. Grossman said cats were in the DNA of TIME and he wanted to collaborate.

“This community exudes positivity and optimism,” Grossman tweeted. “Cool Cats are family friendly and connect cross-generationally, which is important when you have TIME For Kids.”

TIME is owned by Marc Benioff, the founder and CEO of Salesforce.com Inc CRM.
