According to an NFTiffs Frequently-Asked Questions page, the NFTiff token sale is set to launch on August 5 at 9 am (CST), and will only be available for purchase NFTiff tokens via its website.
Each CryptoPunk is limited to a maximum of three NFTiff tokens that allow them to mint a customized pendant. There are 87 different attributes and 159 colors that can be used to custom design the pendants, and the pendant itself will be composed of 18-Karat rose or yellow gold (based on the color palette of the NFT).
Should all the limited edition pendants sell out, Tiffany & Co stands to make 7,500 in ETH (currently $12.7 million).
The campaign was first promoted by Tiffany & Co vice president Alexandre Arnault, who owns CryptoPunk #3167 in April. In a tweet, Arnault revealed his new rose gold and enamel CryptoPunk, which was transformed with a new sapphire and Mozambique-colored set of glasses and a yellow diamond round earring.
