Indonesia is using Web3 and NFTs to preserve its cultural heritage and support its tourism industry, which has been severely impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic. Artisans from Indonesia, including blacksmiths and dancers, are creating one-of-a-kind digital assets that are sold as NFTs on the Quantum Temple platform. These NFTs, called Paths to Alangö, include intangible works like dances, tangible works like temple bells, and real-life cultural experiences. The NFTs provide a regenerative income for the artisans and connect travelers with local communities before they visit Indonesia. The initiative aims to promote conscious travel, cultural preservation, and sustainable projects in the country.
