Yuga Labs and Six Studios, led by Huang Licheng, launched a joint venture, Bored Ape Studios, to produce an animated series based on Bored Ape Yacht Club.
This venture could boost NFT market interest, potentially impacting Ethereum and ApeCoin as BAYC expands into media, highlighting NFT commercialization’s ongoing evolution.
Yuga Labs has partnered with Six Studios, led by Huang Licheng, to form Bored Ape Studios. The joint venture’s first project is the animated Bored Ape Yacht Club series, aimed at leveraging the brand’s successful IP in new media channels. This collaboration was confirmed via ChainCatcher news and official releases from Yuga Labs.
NFT community engagement and IP commercialization are expected to expand with this venture. The entry of Bored Ape Yacht Club into animated content signifies continued innovation in the NFT space, setting a trend for other digital collectibles.
Already, a new economy is possible with the IP of Apes, Punks, and Meebits, owned by the community. The possibilities for blockchain’s impact on culture are endless, and so we are building a beautiful, interoperable world for people to explore and play in. There’s a lot to come.
