Introduction
Autograph was founded in 2021 by Tom Brady, Dillon Rosenblatt and Josh Payne. It has its headquarter in Santa Monica, United States.
Autograph is an NFT platform that brings together the most iconic brands and legendary names in sports, entertainment and culture to create unique digital collections and experiences. Autograph allows users to choose a username and get it minted as an NFT on the blockchain.
The Autograph Wallet is designed to be as secure and as user-friendly as possible. It’s a shared system that requires cooperation between you and Autograph for access. Autograph securely maintains a “secret,” and you maintain your login information and PIN. When you enter your PIN from your account, decryption happens and you can access the contents of the Wallet.
The Autograph NFTs currently sold in the DraftKings Marketplace are minted on the Polygon blockchain, which is an Ethereum-compatible layer 2 solution.
