WISeKey International Holding Ltd., a leading global cybersecurity, AI, Blockchain and IoT company, unveiled at the Mobile World Congress, an industry first NFT (non–fungible token) from space featuring authenticated photography in cooperation with Brooke Shields, actor, model, entrepreneur and author.
The secure WISe.Art NFT, powered by Casper blockchain, ensures the integrity of the NFT is protected. The minted NFT of an original photograph from Brooke Shield’s personal collection, was sent by a WISeSat space satellite in orbit, following the successful launch and orbit deployment of several WISeSats on the SpaceX Transporter 3 Rideshare mission earlier this year.

Carlos Moreira, CEO of WISeKey, noted, “The launch of this new NFT from space marks a huge milestone for the NFT industry. The iconic photograph of legendary Brooke Shields will forever be secure in space, minted as an NFT to ensure the authenticity and legacy of the original work. WISeKey’s NFT technology ensures that besides an authenticated and signed version of the actual digital asset, an irreversible link to the physical object can be created by providing a proof of ownership, provenance and relevant contracts describing future use and monetization streams remain forever and immutably verifiable on the blockchain. WISe.ART Marketplace platform, powered and secured by WISeKey’s own security technology, binds irrevocably physical objects to their digital assets in a safe end-to-end process, and includes permanent secured storage of the NFTs.”
Brooke Shields has partnered with MAKE International, a blockchain technology services company, to develop her NFT project, scheduled to drop later this year.
“Protecting the integrity of my brand and life’s work has always been a priority for me. With the blockchain solution from WISeKey, Casper Network and MAKE International, I now have a sophisticated way of securing and authenticating this important and personal series of photographs,” said Shields.
