Anil Narasipuram and Shruti Nair did NOT want a traditional wedding. The lovebirds, who met on Twitter, decided to have a wedding on the blockchain!
The couple, who lives in Pune India, invited their cousin to be a digital priest, and created a NFT using a photo of the brides’ ring and marriage vows.
“The record of our wedding is permanent, immutable and public. The blockchain ledger is tamper-proof. No one in the world can change the fact that it is recorded on the blockchain, which is a sign of our commitment to each other. [It] is a very powerful statement about our marriage itself,” Narasipuram told #VICEWorldNews.
During their digital wedding, friends and family signed in online and their cousin/ priest pronounced them married under the power of Ethereum. NFTs in India are becoming increasingly popular, with celebrities such as Big B, Salman Khan, and Kamal Haasan releasing their own NFT projects.
