- TinyTap’s Publisher NFTs fully sold out, generating significant revenue.
- NFTs provide educators with new revenue models and autonomy.
- Animoca Brands pioneers merging NFTs with educational content.
The publishing industry has long been criticized for its gatekeeping and the bad deals it gives creators. Eager to shift the dynamic, companies like Animoca Brands ’ TinyTap are using non-fungible tokens (NFTs) to change that dynamic.
TinyTap recently announced a significant milestone: the complete sale of its Publisher NFTs. They claim this model empowers educators and content creators and lets them keep more of their earnings.
Animoca Brands’ TinyTap Sale of EdTech Publisher NFTs
On Tuesday, 27 November, Animoca Brands’ subsidiary TinyTap announced the successful sale of Season 2 of its Publisher NFTs. These NFTs aim to incentivize educators on the TinyTap platform.
The sale, facilitated by Open Campus, a community-led Web3 education protocol, resulted in the generation of 538,560 EDU tokens, equivalent to approximately US$333,907. This revenue will go to the 168 active educators on the TinyTap platform.
When an NFT linked to a specific educational content is sold for the first time, the creator – the educator – receives 50% of the net proceeds from this initial sale.

Beyond the initial sale, educators receive a continuous 10% share of the revenue generated from the content linked to the NFTs. This ongoing revenue share is calculated based on the utilization and popularity of the educational content.
The model also includes a provision for secondary sales. Whenever a Publisher NFT is resold, the original content creator receives a 5% royalty.
