It’s been 20 years since September 11, 2001, The New Yorker is cooperating with the LGND market to auction an NFT cover "9/11: Then and Now" to commemorate this day. 

The auction will start at 11 a.m. Eastern Standard Time on September 10 and end on September 13. The cover created by artist Pascal Campion depicts a pair of young people comforting each other on the rebuilt World Trade Center site. 

The auction is held by the high-end NFT market LGND on the WAX blockchain,  a proof-of-stake network known for its ecological awareness and energy-saving technology. 

All net proceeds from the auction (bid at $5,000) will be donated to the non-profit organization 9/11 Day. The organization was established in 2002 and worked with a series of partners (such as the 9/11 Memorial Museum and New York City) to organize an annual community service day to commemorate the terrorist attack.
