The BND has stepped into the digital asset technology with its NFT collection, Dogs of BNB. The main goal of the intelligence agency in this collection is to discover cyber talent.

The 999-piece NFT collection plays a significant role in the BND’s mechanism for discovering cyber talent. According to the BND, the NFTs were only published on Instagram. These NFTs can be collected by finding a character string pointing to an Ethereum address.

The talent discovery program, launched earlier this month, uses dog figures inspired by different intelligence roles. Police dogs and security dogs are also part of this NFT collection.

However, twelve NFTs are missing from the collection. The intelligence agency plans to use these NFTs in more challenging tasks in the future.
