eBay is a worldwide commerce platform that connects thousands of sellers and buyers around the globe. It announced the launch of several exclusive NFTs in a partnership with OneOf. OneOf is a leading green NFT platform, serving communities of all kinds, including music, sport, and lifestyle. Through this partnership, eBay (NASDAQ:) combines its global reach and unmatched inventory – and OneOf’s eco-conscious Web3 technology – to continue to bring a seamless experience that allows enthusiasts to buy and sell high passion and high value items with confidence.

Dawn Block, eBay’s Vice President of Collectibles, Electronics and Home, said that NFTs and blockchain technology have revolutionized the collectors market and are now seen as an opportunity to invest in them. eBay has partnered with OneOf to make coveted NFTs easier accessible for a whole new generation of collectors. We are committed to delivering high-value, passionate items to both sellers and buyers through eBay.
eBay’s first-ever “Genesis” NFT Collection will feature 3D and animated interpretations of the iconic athletes featured on Sports Illustrated covers over the years, the first of which – available beginning today at eBay.com/oneofgretzkynft – features record-breaking Canadian hockey legend Wayne Gretzky.

Wayne Gretzky, Sportsman of the Month, says, “Fifty years ago, my gratitude was overwhelming to have been on the Sports Illustrated Cover. It was a significant moment in the course of my life.” I’m proud to share this special experience with my fans, who have been following my career for many decades.
This limited edition collection contains thirteen digital collectibles in green, gold and platinum. There are up to 299 editions in each tier of the green tier. The diamond tier has only 15 editions. Each NFT is priced at just $10 and includes a 3D render or animation of Gretzky performing a specific move on the ice. Throughout 2022, additional drops of OneOf’s sports legends NFT series will take place in partnership with eBay, reinterpreting iconic Sports Illustrated covers in the era of Web3.

Lin Dai (CEO, OneOf) stated that OneOf is excited to work with eBay. “EBX, the most trusted and largest e-commerce platform worldwide, will allow us to bring NFTs and blockchain technology to eBay’s users through an interactive, user-friendly interface.” You don’t need to know crypto to purchase, sell and collect NFTs. OneOf is bringing revolutionary Web3 technology to the next 100M noncrypto native mass consumers.
