MANILA, Philippines—Mintoo, a home-grown digital collectibles marketplace, in collaboration with Philippine Digital Asset Exchange (PDAX), the country’s leading digital asset exchange has unveiled its first digital art collection for its Artist Series, titled New Horizons. This collection includes a number of thoroughly curated digital art masterpieces made by renowned and up-and-coming Filipino NFT artists.
“As a cryptocurrency exchange, we’re always looking for ways to innovate and provide our users with new and exciting opportunities. Having Mintoo on the PDAX app will expand our offerings to include digital collectibles and provide Filipinos with the tools and resources they need to participate in this market. This is something which is very timely since we believe that this new technology is on the verge of revolutionizing the way we think about ownership and value,” said PDAX CEO Nichel Gaba.

True to the spirit of taking a bold leap into a new digital medium, the Artist Series’ first collection gives a unique take on the ‘art of the possible’ and honors the opportunities that lie in the courage of embracing the unknown. It showcases a diverse range of artistic mediums, from illustrators and traditional painters to collage artists and 3D modelers, namely Alchemyst, Marv del Mundo, Lucius Felimus, Gian Ferrer, Auggie Fontanilla, Ab Hong, Marso, Lei Melendres, Shelly Soneja and Tonstee.

“By providing a space for Filipino artists to showcase their talent, Mintoo is not only breaking the barriers for the local NFT scene, but also challenging the negative stereotypes associated with Filipino NFTs, and carving a new perspective that places the Philippines as a respectable player in the global art market,” Lao added.
Mintoo’s Artist Series collections aim to bolster the Filipino digital art scene by providing a platform for visual artists, creators, and art enthusiasts to buy, sell, and trade digital collectibles conveniently through their Mintoo account, exclusively available on the PDAX platform.
Without needing to understand the complexities of blockchain technology, Mintoo consumers will be able to purchase digital collectibles directly with Philippine pesos, and artists will be able to simply establish their own collections utilizing robust and intuitive tools.
