The post GalaChain Enables Tokenization of Founder’s Nodes as NFTs appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

Tony Kim Oct 16, 2024 19:22 GalaChain introduces tokenization of Founder’s Nodes as NFTs, allowing transferability and decentralized operation, enhancing user freedom and ecosystem reliability. In a significant development for the Gala ecosystem, Founder’s Nodes can now be tokenized as non-fungible tokens (NFTs) on GalaChain, according to Gala News.
