NEW LEGENDSDAO WILL REVOLUTIONISE GOLF COURSE OWNERSHIP

South African golf will enter a new era with the historic first purchase of one of the country’s iconic golf courses using blockchain technology and crypto currency, and with the Legend Golf & Safari course in Limpopo set to pioneer this new vision to completely redefine traditional golf course ownership using NFTs.

LegendsDAO (Decentralised Autonomous Organisation) today announced its launch of an NFT (Non-fungible token) sale to purchase the Legend Golf & Safari course, which is in danger of closing its doors.

The project is the first step in what the company foresees will become a global trend towards the decentralisation of the sports industry through NFT funding and giving a community of investors shared ownership of major sports facilities or even teams.

A total of 2 000 LegendsDAO NFTs will be sold at $3 000, approximately 2 Ethereum (ETH), each to raise the $6 million required to purchase the Legend Golf & Safari course and begin its restoration to the standard that saw it make history as the first South African golf course featuring 18 holes designed by 18 individual champion golfers, including Trevor Immelman, Jim Furyk, Bernhard Langer, Colin Montgomerie, Justin Rose, Padraig Harrington, Ian Woosnam, Vijay Singh, Sergio Garcia, Retief Goosen and others.

The public will be able to pay the $3 000 using either Ethereum blockchain technology, or standard debit and credit cards.
