Tradable NFTs of Licensed Zenescope Characters to Appear within Blockchain-Based Game CryptoFights
Singapore – October 5, 2021 – In an exciting new product and crossover launch, comic book and graphic novel publisher, Zenescope Entertainment and CryptoFights, the fighting game powered by the Bitcoin SV (BSV) blockchain, set an industry milestone by minting the first-ever licensed Intellectual Property (IP) on the Bitcoin SV blockchain. The digital collectibles are playable, in-game non-fungible token (NFT) collectibles of Zenescope characters which users can use on their avatars and trade on- or off-platform. Spearheading the partnership is Epik, a global licensing agency connecting brands with video games.
The first drop date is set for November, when the Zenescope characters will appear as available for purchase by players 18 and over for in-game collectibles offered on the FYX platform marketplace and will be usable inside of CryptoFights as an “Illusion” for players’ custom-made characters. This means players can turn their regular character into a character from the Zenescope universe simply by owning the NFT in their FYX platform account.
“Epik is proud to connect an incredible cutting-edge brand like Zenescope with the #1 game on the BSV blockchain – CryptoFights,” said Victor David, Co-Founder & CEO, Epik. “We believe firmly in this partnership and look forward to seeing the project come to life”
“Grimm Fairy Tales is the longest running independent comic book being published today and the Grimm Universe boasts a library of over 400 characters that have appeared in hundreds of storylines,” said Zenescope CEO, Joe Brusha. “This exclusive partnership is a chance for us to reach new customers in an untapped market. We are excited to expand our Grimm Universe into the blockchain and NFT space.”
“Epik is the ideal partner for this one-of-a-kind collaboration, and their team is so innovative – from conceiving a bold new collaboration with artists and their Zenescope exclusive NFTs,” said FYX CEO, Adam King. “This partnership is helping to expand CryptoFights’ reach with new audiences in ways we never thought possible.”
The Zenescope NFT’s on the FYX platform will have the actual NFT assets stored on chain and not hosted on the cloud like many other NFT platforms do. Special collector NFTs will offer signed elements by Zenescope writers and creators.
CryptoFights, based purely on the BSV blockchain, gives the users and collectors unique benefits in that the content of the IP is stored on the blockchain in the token itself. FYX Gaming chose to utilize the BSV chain for CryptoFights for several key reasons: The BSV chain enables more efficient and powerful NFT transactions and capabilities, with a median transaction fee of $0.0011. Furthermore, BSV is fast, ecofriendly, and almost instant in processing compared to other popular digital currencies. Since relaunching with new infrastructure in August, CryptoFights has averaged more than 1,000,000 transactions per day on the BSV blockchain and on August 23, CryptoFights processed 1,960,354 transactions on the BSV blockchain in a single 24-hour period – more transactions than the entire BTC network processed during the same period [data from bsvdata.com].
