NFT Program Press Release Guidelines｜Global PR Outreach

Over the past two years, the NFT market has gone from wild hype to a more level-headed, segmented landscape. As users get savvier and project quality ramps up, “telling your story right” has become a non-negotiable challenge for every NFT project.


Whether you’re an indie creator launching your first art collection or a project backed by top-tier VCs, a pro, trustworthy, and well-structured press release is your first bridge to media, investors, and your community.


Platforms like OpenSea and Magic Eden, plus media outlets like NFT Now and Decrypt, are all watching for the next big thing. But the projects that catch their eye usually share one trait: they know how to use a press release to control the narrative, build buzz, and max out exposure during the critical launch window.


This guide breaks down what makes a standout NFT press release — its structure, content, strategy, and how to dodge the trap of blending in with “cookie-cutter” projects. It’ll help you grab media and market attention in those crucial first 10 seconds of reading.

Why Do NFT Projects Need Press Releases?


As the NFT market shifts toward niche and premium trends, just announcing a “Mint launch” or “airdrop warmup” isn’t enough to cut through the noise anymore. Today’s NFT projects need sharp, media-friendly, and compliance-ready communication — and that’s where press releases shine.

According to Chainalysis, the global NFT market hit $14 billion in trading volume in 2024, with ~62% of transactions happening within 72 hours of major platform launches (e.g., Blur, Magic Eden, OpenSea). A press release is your key to grabbing user and institutional attention during this critical window.
