To celebrate the recent release of the film “Alpha Rift”, in which Aaron Dalla Villa starred alongside Lance Henriksen, and to share his love for animals, actor Aaron has announced the release of his Alpha Cat NFT collection.
The collection was designed by artist Wrayven and consists of three NFTs; “Alpha Cat”, “Alpha Cat (Winking),” which is the only animated NFT in the collection, and “Felix (Alpha Cat Variant)”.
The Alpha Cat NFT collection was minted on the Polygon network and is available on OpenSea at: https://opensea.io/collection/alpha-cat.
The price for each NFT is set at 0,05 ETH, or $152,88 (at the time of writing).
A New York non-profit animal rescue will benefit from the proceeds of the NFTs sale.
Aaron has expressed interest in NFTs since December when he tweeted about looking for an NFT artist to work on a new project.
