    The Rugby League World Cup (RLWC2021) is coming to England in 2022 with a major NFT twist! Through a commercial partnership with NuArca, fans will be able to purchase NFTs paired with exclusive fan experiences. Moreover, the partners are launching an exclusive NFT Marketplace – the first official NFT Marketplace in the history of the Rugby League.
