In the project developed together with the Nesin Foundation, the memories of Aziz Nesin, the master of Turkish literature, will be transferred to the NFT world. Ali Nesin, the son of Aziz Nesin and the founder of Nesin Mathematics Village, also explained the details of the project with Gökalp İçer.
Speaking at the ICRYPEX NFT Marketplace event Ali Nesin“This event, where ICRYPEX and Nesin Foundation met, was the first step of a journey that will transfer Aziz Nesin’s memories to the digital world. We are very happy with the memories of Aziz Nesin, which will be available soon on the ICRYPEX NFT Marketplace. In this context, I hope that Aziz Nesin Memories, which is the first collection, will also herald many new projects. I believe that the income from these projects will contribute to the education of children.” said.
82-year-old Cumhuriyet Newspaper archive will become NFT
Developed by Cumhuriyet Newspaper and ICRYPEX, the NFT project will focus on an 82-year-old archive. The project, in which every edition of Cumhuriyet Newspaper published since 1930 will be sold as NFT, will be a first in the world. The details of the project, in which the headlines that have left their mark in the history of Turkey will be on sale as more valuable, will be announced separately in the coming months.
speaking at the event Cumhuriyet Newspaper Editor-in-Chief Arif Kızılyalı“Cumhuriyet Newspaper has one of the largest newspaper archives in our country. We keep the digital edition of each edition since 1924. The integration of this nearly 100-year-old archive into the NFT world opens a great era for us. The Cumhuriyet Newspaper Archive, where each edition will be offered for sale as 1 NFT, represents a major turning point not only for the NFT world, but also for the media history of our country. We would like to thank the 100-year-old Cumhuriyet writers, veterans, readers and ICRYPEX NFT Marketplace who contributed to the project.” said.
Erden Eruç, who holds 17 Guinness Records, will also take his place in the NFT world

NFTs include the athlete’s travel memories and equipment used. Erden Eruç, who rowed in the ocean for months, personally introduced his NFTs at this event within the scope of his Istanbul visit.
Talking about the first NFT project Erden Eruc“Our paths crossed with ICRYPEX on my ocean voyages. As a company, it has been supporting me as a sponsor on my journeys for a long time. At this stage, I am very excited to launch an NFT collection with them. I am a nature athlete who has spent 1,168 days of my life at sea.
It is a pleasure to be a part of the NFT world and to row in the NFT sea as well as the oceans. You will soon be able to see the NFTs of the equipment I used on my journey, and the NFTs I remember, on the ICRYPEX NFT Marketplace. I believe it will be an enjoyable and different collection.” said.

In the NFT collection we will realize with the Nesin Foundation, we will NFT the drawings and memories of our precious author Aziz Nesin. As NFT, we will offer every edition of Cumhuriyet, one of the most established newspapers of our country, that has been published since 1924. Here, we will put the headlines of the historical events of our country for sale on the ICRYPEX NFT Marketplace.
We are releasing another collection within the scope of our projects with Erden Eruç. Erden Bey is the first and only Turkish person to tour the world by rowing with muscle power. In this collection, we will digitize Erden Eruç’s equipment and memories as NFT. We hope that these projects we present will add value to the entire NFT world, especially our partners Nesin Foundation, Cumhuriyet Newspaper and Erden Eruç.” said.
