KARACHI: Wasim Akram to launch limited-edition NFTs on June 24, 2021 in collaboration with BitBlaze, GAME and Binance on Binance’s new NFT platform.
BitBlaze announced the launch of an exclusive limited-edition collection of Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) featuring cricket heroes from Pakistan, including the legendary Wasim Akram.

It’s exciting to think that blockchain technology now gives these incredible memories a permanent home, and a way to capture these special moments in Pakistan’s cricket history.”
