What’s going on with WIZD?
Wizard Brands Inc. (WIZD) division Wizard World has debuted its first collection of two-dimensional non-fungible tokens, or 2D NFTs, featuring exclusive items from the Wizard World Vault online marketplace. Shares of WIZD were trading at $3.20 per share on Friday morning.

The door has fully opened for our fans to enter the digital age, and this is just one of many exciting steps Wizard World will take in our pursuit of minting nostalgia.”
