The unique digital assets will mostly consist of art and items related to entertainment. These will be mostly collectors’ items where both the company and creators can both benefit from especially in terms of revenue.
“Fueled by beloved characters and iconic properties with multi-generational appeal, we are thrilled to accelerate our consumer products presence even further into the growing metaverse,” ViacomCBS’ president for consumer products, Pam Kaufman, said in a press release. “In teaming up with RECUR to create an NFT platform dedicated to ViacomCBS IP, voracious collectors and first-time NFT buyers alike will find unique opportunities to own a piece of their favorite franchises.”
