Michelle Choi, the founder of 3.0 Labs – a Web3 venture lab – turned to digital opportunities to finance the upkeep of physical paintings by selling non-fungible tokens (NFTs). This will be done with heritage sites in real life.

Choi opened Non-fungible Castle at Lobkowicz Palace, where NFTs were displayed beside 500-year old paintings. It raised enough money for all of the immediate projects that the property needed.
