Technology-centric organization 1SEC is pleased to announce that their web3 creative studio 1BLOCK finally acquired a once-in-a-lifetime partnership with the action anime “Baki Hanma” to start selling virtual sneakers.
The collaborated virtual sneakers showcase the anima’s main characters, their fighting scenes, as well as their popular scenes. All the sneakers will also be minted as an NFT. That only means all the designs will be unique and one-of-a-kind.
Virtual sneakers come in the form of NFTs or non-fungible tokens, which operate using blockchain technology. That indicates that every pair is unique and has a digital keychain that confirms its authenticity but is permanently known on the blockchain. They could be worn either as digital wearables for an avatar in virtual spaces or can be perceived through augmented reality (AR) filters.
There will be twenty-five (25) items to be minted, and the schedule of Baki Hanma X Air Smoke Zero will be scheduled for the early half of October 2022.
Baki Hanma is the third series of the action comic series Baki, a work by Keisuke Itagaki. The total number of accumulated publications exceeds over eighty-five million copies. Its story is solely based on the original storyline of the comic Baki Hanma, where the youngest world champion of the underground combat, Grand Prix, Baki Hanma, decides to challenge Yujiro Hanma, who is considered the strongest living man.
The story turns out to be about the deadly fight between a father and his son. Way back in 2021, the comic was distributed as an anime, and the second season has already been in production. The first season of the anime series is also released globally and is available on Netflix.
The virtual sneaker will be available on MetaDrip. It’s a smartphone app that enables users to try on or experience digital assets, including 3D CG-produced NFTS in augmented reality through the camera. There will be an actual fun action to be added in the future.
This function will enable the holder of the assets to experience the AR feature of the particular items that have been minted as NFT. The number of assets available will also be updated on a regular basis. On top of that, MetaDrip will incubate mass adoption among brands, creators, and society. It will be accomplished by making the most out of AR technologies and infusing the new layer of practicality into digital assets.
There’s no doubt that NFT sneakers are the talk of the town. While there is no certain way to speculate how long the NFT bubble will be undamaged, there is a profit in it as long as it exists.
As the virtual landscape continues to change, more and more individuals will be attracted to the realm and consider the concept of digital fashion collectibles. NFTs offer a unique angle for organizations to innovate their product, connect with their communities, and strengthen their brand experience.
The technology also introduces a new level of ownership and authentication, which will attract collectors to curate their own collections of unique and valuable digital assets in the market.
Finally, as the virtual and physical realms converge, novel ways of forging identity and dipping in experiences will be made and form the future of culture.
1BLOCK has made a digital fashion utility and plans to expand into a community connecting the world. MetaDrip also plans to release more systems and make a space where different creators within the community have the opportunity to distribute their digital fashion.
