AMC has been very popular for NFT fans and movie watchers in the US by providing them a non-fungible token (NFT) of their favorite shows.
Recently, AMC Theaters gave NFTs to guests who purchased and/or reserved tickets for and attended showtimes to popular movies. These include Spider-man: No Way Home (released on December 17, 2021), The Matrix Resurrections (December 22, 2021), Moonfall (February 4, 2022), and The Batman (May 4, 2022).
The early access of the movie will qualify guests for an NFT redeemable until July 1, 2022 via NFT platform RECUR.
Ticket buyers will receive a confirmation of the NFT via receipt email upon purchasing on the theaters’ website or app. After watching, an email will be sent on June 1 along with the instructions on how to claim the NFT.
