The Giro d’Italia, Italy’s annual multi-stage bicycle race, has announced the debut of its first NFT collection.
The Giro d’Italia’s NFT collection, created in collaboration with ItaliaNFT – an Italian NFT marketplace – was released yesterday on the Giro’s social networks, with a teaser tweet saying that “Giro d’Italia has never been so cryptic.”

The NFT with a small rotating GIF of a ‘maglia rosa’ is currently available at https://italianft.art/ for 0.02 ETH, or $49.
NFTs for the other jersey types will be available soon, with a free promotion starting on May 13. Users will also be able to purchase Giro logos, including some rare NFTs with distinctive and highly sought-after qualities.
The most valuable NFT in the collection will be titled “Trofeo Senza Fine,” and will include a golden spiral trophy representing triumph and the dream of all Giro d’Italia contestants. This one-of-a-kind NFT will be auctioned off at the end of the race.
