Additionally, 14 Apes from Elite Apes Hong Kong’s private collection will be on display, alongside other Hong Kong-inspired NFT art. 

AAX Branding Director Yixiang Chen said: “We are delighted to host our very first NFT pop-up experience in Hong Kong, which has emerged as a strong digital and NFT hub.”

“The pop-up store, which allows us to connect with a much broader community, will offer visitors new perspectives on the convergence of crypto with economic and cultural change. It will also highlight the advantages and benefits that NFTs have to offer across a range of industries, from finance to consumer and luxury goods to real estate.”

What to expect at AAX pop-up shop

Highlights of the two-week NFT experience include a panel discussion hosted by AAX Head of Research and Strategy, Ben Caselin.
