The characters are particularly well-known thanks to an animated series on MBC3, a popular channel in the Middle East. Each episode featured the adventures of the Fananees as they explored different aspects of Ramadan and Islamic culture.Known for their playful and energetic personalities, the Fananees engage in adventures and experiences that teach children about the importance of sharing, kindness, and cooperation. Through their stories, the Fananees aim to inspire young viewers to embrace the values of Ramadan and to have fun while learning about their faith.This Ramadan, the Fananees are coming to Web3, thanks to the MBC Group — one of MENA’s leading media and entertainment companies. It was MBC that first brought the Fananees into existence on TV, and it’s MBC that is now bringing these popular Ramadan characters to the exciting world of digital collectibles. The MBC team plans to launch 6,000 Fananees NFTs. Of those, 1,000 Fananees NFTs will be sold at 0.08 ETH each via Binance NFT’s launchpad, and our <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" appurl="" href="https://www.binance.com/en/support/faq/what-is-binance-nft-subscription-mechanism-and-how-to-participate-ca84113a81c2471f99d1a7942ccf1795" customevents="[object Object]">Subscription Mechanism</a>.<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" appurl="" href="https://www.binance.com/en/nft/staking/Fananees" customevents="[object Object]">Subscribe now to the Fananees NFT Launchpad</a><h2 data-block-id="2112ffda-2cae-4b47-836c-bb18023d0c2e">Fananees NFT Utilities</h2>Owning a Fananees NFT means you’re part of the next creative chapter of these much-loved characters.
