Eco-friendliness and mass market accessibility cited as major factors in choosing WAX.

WAX Blockchain has been chosen by Sony Pictures and AMC Theatres (NYSE:AMC) for Sony Pictures’ Spider-Man: No Way Home NFT Promotion, the first ever NFT promotion between a studio and a major theatrical exhibitor. The decision to utilize WAX blockchain was based on several key benefits of WAX Blockchain including eco-friendliness and mass market accessibility.

Members of AMC Stubs Premiere & A-List, and AMC Investor Connect, will receive an exclusive Spider-Man™ NFT, via the WAX blockchain, with an opening day advance ticket purchase or reservation, while supplies last. 86,000 NFTs were made available for this unprecedented Sony Pictures and AMC celebration of the release of Spider-Man: No Way Home.
