Collect is a Web3 ecosystem focused on bringing real-world collectible assets on-chain, including graded cards, comics, sneakers, toys, and luxury goods. Operated by the Collect Foundation, the platform bridges physical ownership with blockchain technology, enabling collectors to access verified assets through a transparent and scalable digital infrastructure.

At the core of the ecosystem is $COLLECT, the on-chain currency used exclusively to access and acquire authenticated physical collectibles. Unlike speculative NFTs, $COLLECT is backed by real, verifiable assets, aligning on-chain utility with tangible value while enabling liquidity, ownership transfer, and broader participation across the collectibles market.

Designed for long-term sustainability, the $COLLECT model incorporates token burns, staking incentives, supported liquidity, and ecosystem rewards to encourage adoption and growth. By unlocking idle collectibles and digitizing ownership, Collect aims to create a unified marketplace where real-world value, provenance, and Web3 innovation converge.
