Grand Theft Auto To Introduce NFTs And Binance Buys Itself Into Forbes

---

San Andreas 3.0 – Take-Two, the publisher of the Grand Theft Auto video game franchise, has its eyes set on the opportunities presented by NFTs. Statements by Strauss Zelnick, CEO of the company, suggest that Rockstar could follow other gaming companies like Konami, Ubisoft or Square Enix and enter the realm of blockchains and crypto.

We’re highly convinced there’s an opportunity for NFTs to fit with Take-Two’s offerings in the future.

Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick commented.

In Liberty City, the made-up world in which the game takes place, gamers are getting impatient and wondering if there will be NFTs in the next GTA installment.

Binance Buys Into Forbes

Eager to get some of that sweet sweet American investment money, the world’s biggest crypto platform Binance has struck a deal to buy itself into Forbes for $200 million.

Forbes, the well-known US business magazine, counts an audience of more than 150 million people worldwide and will probably publish pieces discussing Binance in the future.

After acquiring CoinMarketCap already in 2020, another major purchase for CZ, the moniker under which Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao is known.

Commenting via social media on the deal, CZ said:

Forbes editorial independence is and will always be sacrosanct. The strength of the Forbes brand and our investment depends on that continued independence.

Coinbase, Gemini, FTX and Crypto.com better beware, looks like Binance is ready to break into the US market as well.
