Limit Break’s 10K NFTs for DigiDaigoku were gone ‘instantly’ after Super Bowl ad

Limit Break gave away 10,000 “free-to-own” non-fungible tokens (NFTs) in its DigiDaigaku Dragon series during the Super Bowl on Sunday.

Gabe Leydon, CEO of Limit Break and former CEO of Machine Zone, said in an interview with GamesBeat that the company’s first 5,000 dragon egg NFTs were taken instantly by players who had cryptocurrency wallets already established. And since the company expected this demand, it also randomly gave away an additional 5,000 to people who signed up on the company’s website.
