<\/p>\nGerman luxury car manufacturer Porsche has suggested it will be significantly ramping up its Web3 efforts after unveiling an upcoming NFT project consisting of 7,500 customizable tokenized vehicles. <\/p>\n
In a Nov. 29 announcement, Porsche stated that the NFTs will be launched in January, and users will be able to customize various aspects of the cars in relation to performance and appearance. <\/p>\n
The NFT art itself is being designed by designer and 3D artist Patrick Vogel, with all pieces revolving around the famous Porsche 911 model.<\/p>\n
Notably these virtual assets will be designed in Epic Games\u2019 Unreal Engine 5, suggesting that gaming integrations are afoot. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The company gave a sneak peek into the project at the Art Basel conference in Miami on Nov. 30. While specific details have not been mentioned, the company noted that owners will be able to use the cars in the \u201cvirtual world,\u201d most likely meaning some sort of Metaverse.<\/p>\n
More broadly, Porsche suggested that it is looking to significantly ramp up its exposure to Web3 moving forward, with the announcement noting that: <\/p>\n
\u201cDigital art is just one aspect of Porsche\u2019s Web3 strategy. The sports car manufacturer is working to integrate the potential of blockchain technology into existing and future processes and solutions.\u201d<\/p>\n
Porsche previously had a hand in launching soccer-themed NFT collectibles in June 2021 as part of a project called Fanzone, but now appears to be taking the tokenization of its cars more seriously. <\/p>\n
Speaking of German luxury car manufacturers, BMW has reportedly applied to trademark its logo in relation to a host of Web3 products and services. <\/p>\n
The move was highlighted by USPTO licensed trademark attorney Mike Kondoudis, who frequently shares news regarding Web3 trademark applications in the U.S. from major companies.<\/p>\n
BMW outlined intentions for its logo to span across collectibles such as virtual clothing, footwear, headwear and vehicles, while also indicating plans for downloadable virtual goods such as online environments and games. <\/p>\n
Content from Pinkfong\u2019s massively popular children\u2019s song\/music video Baby Shark is set to be tokenized as part of a family-focused blockchain game. <\/p>\n
Pinkfong reportedly penned a licensing agreement with Toekenz Collectibles to create and issue Baby Shark characters in a child safe digital environment. <\/p>\n

Toekenz Collectibles is an NFT platform targeted at children aged 12 and under, and the focus of the game is to educate kids aged five to nine \u201cabout the trading economy of digital collectibles.\u201d<\/p>\n
The kids will also be able to customize the NFT art to their own liking, and even participate in a Tokenz DAO where they \u201ccan exercise democratic decision-making.\u201d <\/p>\n
This is not Pinkfong\u2019s first dip into NFTs, Cointelegraph previously reported that the South Korea-based company launched a series of limited editions Baby Shark NFTs in December last year. <\/p>\n
