South by Southwest, one of Austin’s biggest festivals with exhibits from tech industry leaders, films and musical acts, kicked off its first weekend — and the theme for many seemed to be nonfungible tokens, or NFTs.

From Friday to Sunday, companies from Doodles to luxury car manufacturer Porsche offered NFT-themed exhibits to the thousands of attendees appearing in person in Texas. Many panels and workshops included discussions on how to create and store customized NFTs during the event, with firms like Blockchain Creative Labs offering an interactive experience across the street from NFT galleries and other meetups.
