Discover in this week's briefing why Sports Illustrated is shifting its NFT tickets to the Avalanche platform and how NFT identities in the Mocaverse are being reorganized. Also, learn about World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) launching a digital anthology on the Panini Blockchain, and Yuga Labs' recent purchase of Proof. Sports Illustrated transitions to the Avalanche platform for NFT ticketing. On February 20, Sports Illustrated's Box Office, an NFT ticketing platform, made the switch to the Avalanche network. SI Tickets, affiliated with Sports Illustrated, confirmed its team-up with Ava Labs, the creators of Avalanche. This new alliance means that Box Office's NFT tickets will now exist on the Avalanche platform. David Lane, CEO of SI Tickets, stated that NFT ticketing will revolutionize the way we perceive tickets, which are typically discarded after their use at events. With NFT tickets, Lane suggests, there could be increased involvement opportunities for both event holders and participants. KuCoin, Animoca’s Mocaverse, aim to simplify cross-platform identity. The combination of Mocaverse’s nontransferable NFT digital ID called “Moca ID,” KuCoin’s account system, and Halo’s Genesis membership pass aims to make on-chain identity in Web3 more efficient. On February 15, a partnership between crypto exchange KuCoin, Animoca Brands’ Mocaverse, and Web3 wallet Halo was declared to consolidate digital identity. A spokesperson from KuCoin noted that Web3 activities such as trading, digital collectibles, and the metaverse may operate differently, which may complicate accessing benefits across the platform. The joint venture aims to address this problem. WWE releases Donruss Elite cards digitally on Panini blockchain. Collectibles company Panini introduced a digital set of Donruss Elite cards on their blockchain, featuring WWE icons John Cena, Steve Austin, Roman Reigns, and others. This isn't WWE's first foray into NFTs. Last year, the company collaborated with John Cena to roll out a series of NFT collections, offering perks like front-row tickets to Wrestlemania for the highest bidder. Yuga purchases Proof: Important details from the weekend. Yuga Labs reported the successful acquisition of Proof, the entity behind NFT collections such as Moonbirds, Oddities, Mythics, and Grails. Proof's resources, intellectual property, and staff will now be part of Yuga Labs. Kevin Rose, Proof's CEO and founder, will also serve Yuga Labs as an advisor.
