Adidas has made its way into the Metaverse, which is still being supplied with well-known brands. The firm released a one-of-a-kind POAP NTF collectible.

A non-fungible token (NFT) is a non-transferable, one-of-a-kind data unit stored on a digital ledger (blockchain). NFTs can be attached to readily reproducible things like photographs, videos, music, and other types of digital data as unique items (akin to a certificate of authenticity), with blockchain technology providing public proof of ownership for the NFT. Adidas has joined the growing list of well-known brands that have entered the Metaverse. Despite the fact that it is neither an Adidas NFT nor a coin, the corporation informed Adidas CON.

The Proof of Attendance Protocol (POAP) is a service that uses Ethereum’s ERC-721 NFT protocol to provide users a unique, non-fungible blockchain-based identification that only they have access to.

Copies of the original file are not restricted to the NFT’s owner and may be duplicated and shared in the same way that any other file can. NFTs differ from blockchain cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin in that they are not interchangeable (fungibility).

POAPs are one-of-a-kind NFT badges that are given out to anyone who attends both virtual and real-world events. While POAPs may be used to keep track of your life events, others see them playing a larger role in the digital economy in the future.

“This digital collectible is our way of rewarding you for following your curiosity… this token proves you were here from the beginning of this journey,” Adidas quoted in a launch page on the Confirmed app, which redirects to POAP. “Keep it safe — it may come in handy.”

NIKE WAS IN THE METAVERSE ON THE SAME DAY — Regardless of how much credence you place in the metaverse’s supposed ascent, Adidas’ first foray into the domain appears particularly underwhelming when compared to its largest competitor’s launch on the same day.

Nike and Roblox teamed together to develop “Nikeland,” a virtual world where users can dress up their avatars in Nike apparel and footwear. Because accelerometers on your mobile device transfer your movements to your avatar’s, playing mini-games in Nikeland needs real-life activity.

Nikeland is available for free on Roblox, giving Roblox’s user base a stronger motivation to join in its metaverse activities.
