Watch out, Shutterstock—Getty Images is getting into NFTs.
The NFTs—unique blockchain tokens that signify ownership—will be minted on the Palm blockchain, an Ethereum-compatible sidechain. Getty Images will draw from its collection of over 465 million images, including 135 analog photographs, with a focus on turning never-before-seen archival works into NFTs.
Primary and secondary sales for the NFTs will occur on Candy’s marketplace, which already has partnerships with Major League Baseball, NASCAR, and WWE.
According to a statement, Getty Images CEO Craig Peters sees NFTs as a way to tap into a new market and customer base, while Candy Digital CEO Scott Lawin sees the partnership as a way for Candy to offer new NFTs that touch upon culture and history, beyond the world of sports.
Photography NFTs have already carved out a niche separate from the world of Bored Apes, CryptoPunks, and Okay Bears. Photographers like Cath Simard, Elise Swopes, Randall Slavin, Aimos Vasquez, and Anna McNaught have sold photos for thousands of Ethereum (ETH) each, and OpenSea has a “trending photography” category.
Infura co-founder and general manager E.G. Galano talks to Decrypt's Kate Irwin about what Infura does, how the Bored Ape Yacht Club could have avoided the hiccups with its Otherdeed NFT mint, other hot NFT collections like Moonbirds, and Ethereum's gas fee issues.
In the world of photography, NFTs also have been a controversial topic, with some concerned about the energy consumption of various blockchains. But the ConsenSys-backed Palm blockchain claims it uses 99% less energy than the Ethereum Mainnet. Since launching last year, Palm also is compatible with the decentralized exchange Uniswap and the crypto wallet MetaMask.
The NFT community at large, however, appears less interested in photography and more interested in trading the metaverse or profile picture project of the week. Notably, the top 100 collections on OpenSea—whose marketplace still makes up the vast majority of all NFT sales—does not include a single photography collection.
It's tough to keep tabs on the ever-changing crypto gaming space, thanks to the constant flow of news: everything from big game launches and fun degen experiments to token price swings and occasional project collapses. It's a lot to follow. Luckily, we're plugged in at Decrypt's GG. We cover the biggest happenings throughout the week, and then this weekly roundup provides a quick way to catch up, as well as find a bunch of other little bits of news from throughout the week.

Crypto gaming has seen a troubling trend of projects shutting down or being abandoned after years of hype, token sales, and chaos. Experts say it isn’t much of a surprise considering how challenging game development is, and pointed to gaming tokens as a flawed system that applies too much pressure to projects in their infancy. It's easy to say that we all saw it coming, but in reality, a lot of the recently discontinued titles were once-promising blockchain experiences. Deadrop, for example, wa...
Prominent NFT marketplace OpenSea announced Tuesday that it acquired mobile token trading and portfolio management app Rally (formerly Floor) in an effort to build “the on-chain everything app.” As part of the acquisition, Rally co-founders Chris Maddern and Christine Hall—the latter the former COO at Robinhood Crypto—will join OpenSea’s executive team, with Maddern taking the role of chief technology officer and Hall becoming OpenSea’s chief of staff. Details of the deal were not disclosed. Ope...
