This week, AMC released a set of more than half a million "I Own AMC" NFTs to its investors. These people are real shareholders in AMC — all they had to do was register on a portal by the end of the year and, voila, they’d be rewarded with some AMC collectibles. Traditionally, stockholders in companies normally don’t get much out of their holdings besides the usual profits and losses. In crypto, things have been a little different for a while — remember when Uniswap made a governance token and sent it to its users back in 2020? CoinMarketCap Alexandria has [previously written]( about the argument that airdrops is what will get the next million users into crypto — airdropping tokens or NFTs gives people a taste of what crypto and blockchain can be about, allowing them easier access to experiment with these technologies. Does that mean the AMC’s stockholders are now automatically converted into crypto users? Perhaps not — but they will now get the chance (if they take it) to trade and explore what perks holding this NFT can bring them. All bets are on as to which company will airdrop NFTs to their shareholders next – Gamestop? Tesla? Walmart?

Under the proposals, digital assets will be subject to the same rules as stocks, shares and insurance products.
