The NFT (Non-fungible tokens) are all the craze at the moment.Have you ever dreamed of owning a Tony Dunst or Maria Ho NFT?

If so, your chance is coming.

Earlier today, the World Poker Tour announced that it had entered into a partnership with the Theta Network to launch the "world's first Real-Time NFT Marketplace".

The launch will coincide with the live premiere of WPT Season XVIII.

The marketplace, which will be located at WPT.Thetadrop.com, seems to be following in the footsteps of "NBA Top Shot", which has become wildly successful in recent months.

Instead of offering clips from NBA games, the WPT NFT (Non-Fungible Token) Marketplace will seemingly offer clips of your favourite poker players in action.

Similar to NBA Top Shot, it seems as though there will be Common, Rare and Legendary NFTs, with "Legendary" being the scarcest of the three.

It remains to be seen how much a "Legendary" Tony Dunst or "Common" Maria Ho NFT will be worth, though the World Poker Tour is attempting to cash in on the craze by launching the site.
