More Players Entering the Metaverse

Medium and large-sized businesses have become increasingly interested in the metaverse in recent months. So far in 2022, more than 3,300 patents related to the metaverse have registered with the USPTO by brands worldwide.

Among the most popular brands to have taken steps to enter the metaverse are such companies as NIKE, Stella Artois, Gucci, and Louis Vuitton.

The XFL, a minor professional football league in the United States, recently submitted a trademark application for the name “XFL”, indicating that it has plans to enter the metaverse and the world of non-fungible tokens (NFTs).

Additionally, the official trademark filing shows that the business intends to include an NFT marketplace, along with virtual goods and experiences, in its future plans.

The Professional Golfers’ Association of America (PGA), which recently disclosed that it is finalizing agreements with Sorare and Autograph to launch golf NFTs, also submitted a new Web 3.0 trademark application for its logo.

On the Flipside

The metaverse is still at the stage of conceptualization. While many big players in the tech industry are trying to define and create a foundation for the metaverse, skeptics warn that there is no clear way to determine in which direction the metaverse will develop.
