ABS-CBN s'associe à Theta Labs pour lancer des NFT pour des émissions populaires

Despite the current crypto bear market, media and entertainment giant ABS-CBN Corp. has entered the world of blockchain and non-fungible tokens (NFTs) by partnering with Web3 media provider Theta Labs Inc. The collaboration paves the way for ABS-CBN to launch digital collectibles for three of their upcoming shows.

“Exciting Opportunities for Filipino Fans”

“The partnership between Theta Labs and ABS-CBN brings fresh opportunities for media and entertainment fans in the Philippines. These projects include NFT collections that fans will have the opportunity to own unique digital collectibles, offering a new way to engage and connect with their favorite characters and stories,” ABS-CBN stated.

NFT Collections for Iconic Shows

Theta Labs will create NFT collections for Filipino superhero show Darna and romantic comedy He’s Into Her. ABS-CBN will also utilize Theta’s Video API across various business units to “experiment and explore the potential of Web3 technology to enhance the viewer’s experience.”

A New Chapter for ABS-CBN Digital

To date, the media giant is currently operating fully on digital as their franchise renewal was rejected in 2020.

“Our partnership with ThetaLabs is a very exciting chapter for us…We are looking forward to testing and exploring Theta’s Web3 video and NFT DRM infrastructure and how it can enhance our audience experience across various businesses and IPs. Working with Theta will bring new features and capabilities to our viewers and push entertainment boundaries,” said Jamie Lopez, head of digital at ABS-CBN Corporation.

In 2022, the network’s singing competition “Idol Philippines” priorly had a partnership with Theta Labs where they launched a collection that gave their fans utilities such as passes for live shows and a chance to meet the show’s grand winner.
