NFTs have always been designed to help artists thrive in the Web3 space.
However, as NFTs progress, many people still find them difficult to understand.
Especially the underlying concepts of the blockchain behind them.
Because of this, it’s hard to get more artists and collectors to move into the space. This leaves a huge gap in the industry.
However, PDAX and Minto have decided to fill that gap with their latest innovation.
THE ALPHA
Mintoo, a local digital collectibles marketplace, has partnered with PDAX to launch its Artist Series debut art collection called New Horizons.
Both companies aim to provide a platform for local creators to showcase their talent and provide easy access to NFTs for collectors.
Therefore, with this partnership, Filipino art collectors can easily access a seamless single-app experience that eliminates the need to use decentralized wallets.

PDAX CEO Nichel Gaba believes that this partnership is timely and revolutionary as this new technology will change the way people think about ownership and value.
“Having Mintoo on the PDAX app will expand our offerings to include digital collectibles and provide Filipinos with the tools and resources they need to participate in this market,” he added.
THE ARTIST SERIES: NEW HORIZONS
The New Horizons collection embodies the spirit of taking a bold leap into a new digital medium and embracing the unknown.
Moreover, it showcases a diverse range of artistic mediums, including illustrators, traditional painters, collage artists, and 3D modelers.
Some well-known Filipino artists whose work was included in the collection were:
Moreover, Mintoo’s Director, Patrick Lao, said that the Artist Series’ collections aim to bolster the Filipino digital art scene and challenge negative stereotypes associated with Filipino NFTs.
“Mintoo is paving the way for Filipino artists to enter the NFT industry. The platform offers a highly localized experience that connects collectors with unique and valuable digital collectibles from local creators,” he explained.
HOW TO ACCESS MINTOO MARKETPLACE
Users can now purchase digital collectibles directly with Philippine pesos. Artists, on the other hand, can now easily launch their collections on the platform.
Thanks to Mintoo, they can now mint their artworks using tools that are easy to use even if they don’t understand how blockchain technology works.
Moreover, to access Mintoo, you only need to download and install the PDAX mobile app or visit the Mintoo website.
For you’re an existing PDAX user, you can set up your Mintoo profile by navigating to the “Collectibles” button in the app instead.
CONCLUSION
This is a big step toward foster the NFT industry and making the Philippines a respected player in the global NFT market.
Besides that, it also helps bridge the gap between Web2 and Web3 artists and collectors.
Needless to say, we are excited to see how this development will play out.
