Of course, it’s not just cars and whisky makers entering the metaverse. Several companies are trying to use NFT technology to help launch a brand revamp. Globally renowned companies have already announced their intent to use NFTs weekly, and the trend doesn’t seem to be slowing down anytime soon as blockchain technology advances towards widespread acceptance. NFT Technologies Inc. (NEO:NFT) (OTC:NFTFF), Coinbase Global Inc (NASDAQ:COIN), Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META), DraftKings Inc. (NASDAQ:DKNG) and Funko, Inc. (NASDAQ:FNKO) are some of the companies developing NFT offerings for the growing market.
Based in Vancouver, NFT Technologies Inc.

Earlier this month, NFT Tech entered the market for rewards and loyalty. The value of the worldwide loyalty market is US$7.8 billion, and NFT Tech is prepared to deploy NFTs to power loyalty programs in the future. There are many different types of loyalty programs. As companies explore new methods to interact with clients and supporters, these programs are expected to increase at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.5% between 2022 and 2030.
“Loyalty programs are gaining importance in every business and are becoming increasingly important to a business’s success. The market is huge, and loyalty programs are a part of everyone’s life in one way or another,” said NFT Tech CEO Adam De Cata. “Starbucks is often seen as the leader of the loyalty space, with over 24 million customers actively using their program – representing over 50% of their customers.”
NFT Tech cited recent collaboration announcements as the reason for a considerable expansion in its project pipeline.
The company continues to exceed partnership and contract targets after establishing multi-year partnerships with large companies, and it anticipates closing many more by year’s end. The business has already made announcements regarding relationships with the Australian Open, Elvis Presley Enterprises, Sony Sports, and World Table Tennis.
As projects begin to roll out, NFT Tech reports approximately C$1 million in revenue, indicating the success that has been achieved. The company anticipates increasing income from its focus on resale royalties, which would offer a recurring revenue stream depending on the number of projects introduced into the market.

Recent News From Companies Playing in the NFT Space
On September 8, Coinbase Global Inc (NASDAQ:COIN) released its letter to shareholder for the second quarter. Management said that its Q2 financial results, which were in accordance with the projection made in May, were adversely impacted by the decrease in crypto asset values. Lower trading activity was the primary factor in the $803 million net revenue decline from the first quarter. Operating costs were $1.9 billion, up 8% from the first quarter. Non-cash impairment charges had a significant negative impact on net loss, which totaled $1.1 billion. Net loss would have been $647 million if non-cash impairment charges hadn’t been incurred.
