1) Distributed Ownership of IP Assets
Let's start with Azuki IP, the core infra for storytelling & co-creating new worlds in the animeverse.
As a part of their initial funding, Azuki raised $29 million in sales and gave the community complete ownership of their IP assets.
This is in stark contrast to traditional anime, where fans have no stake or say.
Furthermore, Azuki is one of the most inclusive & diverse IP assets that cater to multiple user segments.
â Bobu for 0.011 ETH ( ~$28)
â Beanz for 0.27 ETH ( ~$697)
â Elementals for 0.4 ETH ( ~$1160)
â Azuki at 5.65 ETH ( ~$14, 579)
Each IP in the ecosystem is catering to a cultural phenomenon.
a) Otaku cultureâ The Azuki OG collection taps into otaku culture with its anime-inspired traits, appealing to collectors, while the Azuki Elementals expand on this with new traits like dark spirits and animals, offering a broader, more unique visual appeal for those seeking distinctive pfp with an accessible entry point.
b) Cute character marketâ Beanz embodies a lovable & universally appealing character, much like Hello Kitty, designed to charm and connect with people.
Theyâre perfectly positioned to bring more women on-chain, as there are very few crypto consumer products that cater to women.
c) Bobu- Bobu is for anyone who wants to co-create the animverse, and at 0.11 ETH itâs is the most accessible entry point for anyone wanting to get involved in the garden.
