As the exclusive partner for .anime and .manga Web3 domains, Kintsugi Global, Inc. is poised to unite 2.8 billion global anime fans for a more fair, equitable, and inclusive experience for everyone.
We're excited to announce that we're partnering with Kintsugi, a decentralized community-driven platform that aims to provide a new way for anime fans to engage with their favorite shows and characters, to launch of .anime and .manga Web3 domains.
The launch will bring together global anime and manga fans to give them a true voice in the industry. Anime and manga fans will be able to support and fund their favorite characters, creators, and content.
Unstoppable Domains allows people to create profiles and connect them with their social channels, showcase on-chain tokens like tickets and awards, display badges, and more. This will enable fans to create curated profiles that represent all aspects of their fandom – including events they’ve attended, collectibles, communities they’re part of, and more.
The new domains will also serve as identifiers for the 2.8 billion fans of anime and manga globally, making it easier for users to log into Kintsugi’s platform and create decentralized websites. In addition, .anime and .manga domains will give users a portable identity across over 800 Unstoppable Domain integrated decentralized apps (dapps), games, and metaverses.
Some 29% of anime revenue is estimated to be generated by collectibles and merchandise in a market predicted to reach over $47 billion in value by 2028. As the exclusive partner for .anime and .manga domains, Kintsugi also owns the rights to market and sell various anime and manga projects globally and will leverage these domains for upcoming collections.
“With some estimates stating that more than a third of the world population watches anime, this new domain ending really showcases the way people choose to identify with their Web3 brand,” said Sandy Carter, COO and Head of Business Development at Unstoppable Domains. “Digital identities will allow anime and manga fans to build community, get rewarded, and so much more.”
“We’re thrilled to work with Unstoppable to make digital identity part of the anime and manga experience,” said Ron Scovil, CEO at Kintsugi Global, Inc. “With .anime and .manga, we’re giving some of the world’s most engaged communities an identity that they fully own and can use to explore Web3.”
