(Nasdaq: CNET) (“ZW Data” or the “Company”), an integrated online advertising, precision marketing, data analytics, and other value-added services company, today announced a cooperation with Guangzhou Digital Gold Information Technology Co., Ltd. (“Digital Gold Information”) to jointly develop “IP + NFT” products.

Its business includes offline experience and display, brand marketing and co-branding, peripheral products and digital merchandise. The two parties will develop the IP + NFT + Metaverse business model, providing the peripheral products and digital merchandise services for authorized IPs during this cooperation. Through the Company’s BIF blockchain platform, the IP co-branded contents and products can be distributed, traded and transferred on global NFT platforms such as Antchain and Tencent Huanhe. Combining multiple technologies such as AR, VR, and Computer Graphics, Metaverse has created excellent scenarios and platforms for virtual IP and content production, allowing it to deeply integrate with more industry scenarios such as live commerce and IP endorsements. The business model also provides possibilities for the Company to explore the applications of NFT + tangible assets, digital assets financial services and others in the future.
In addition, the Company and Digital Gold Information will jointly establish an IP alliance to develop domestic and international cooperative IPs. At present, the IP alliance has closely cooperated with Tencent, Netease and other internet giants, covering a variety of IP types such as game IP, two-dimensional space IP, museum IP, and cultural creation IP which includes but not limited to Kings of Honor of Kings, Game for Peace, Hatsune Miku, and The Metropolitan Museum of Art. The average daily active users of Kings of Honor reached 100 million in 2020.
According to the 2021 NFT Market Report by Chainalysis, users have sent at least $26.9 billion worth of crypto to ERC-721 and ERC-1155 contracts, the two types of Ethereum smart contracts associated with NFT collections and marketplaces. Meanwhile, NFT products such as Dunhuangfeitian released by Antchain and Shisanyao released by Huanhe were popular in the domestic NFT market.
“The main application of NFT gradually expands from cryptocurrency and game to collectibles, artwork, domain name, identity, and other fields. We believe the IP + NFT + Metaverse will become the key application of our blockchain technology as the interactions of NFT with metaverse may be the next focus in the technology sector,” commented Handong Cheng, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of ZW Data.
