Mingo: Bringing Web3 and NFTs to the Masses on Hedera

Blockchains are proliferating across enterprises and taking on new business use cases at a rapid pace. But even with a wave of mass acceptance, the persisting problem with blockchain technology are the barriers to entry, particularly in understanding its utilities.  As a digital ledger system, which simultaneously boasts transparency and encryption, blockchain is a powerful tool to grow secure digital platforms.

But despite this uptick in blockchain usage by big brands, there are still ordinary people who are left behind. So how do you bring those out of the loop back into the future of digital networks?
