So much for the rivalry – in the end it’s less about football and more about money…
Despite the hype around the metaverse deflating and the trading volume of non-fungible tokens (NFTs) going down in the second quarter of 2022, organizations, brands, and celebrities worldwide are still flocking to apply for related trademarks.
As it happens, the newest additions to the space are Spanish football clubs FC Barcelona and Real Madrid CF, which, interestingly, filed for a joint cryptocurrency and metaverse trademark application, according to the metaverse trademark attorney Mike Kondoudis who shared the news on Twitter on August 11.
The El Clásico rivals filed the trademarks on August 5, covering virtual reality gaming, non-downloadable virtual clothing, footwear, and headwear, downloadable blockchain transaction management software, e-wallet software, and more.
