With the most viewed video in the history of YouTube, Pinkfong’s Baby Shark became the most recognizable earworm to emerge from the internet and garnered truly global status, reach, and affinity. It took the world by storm, generating unprecedented amounts of engagement on the internet, certifying RIAA Diamond (11x Platinum), and recording a 20-week streak on Billboard’s Hot 100.
The world of Baby Shark returns to the world of NFTs, introducing an exclusive opportunity for fans and collectors to own official NFTs from the viral sensation.
Baby Shark: Collection No. 1 on MakersPlace offered both unique (1/1) and limited edition pieces featuring iconic Baby Shark and his family in original, loopable animations, all accompanied by audio that references the genre-defining song.
Now, Baby Shark: Collection No. 2 will consist of 10,000 unique generative NFTs, each featuring a member of the shark family: Baby Shark, Mommy Shark, Daddy Shark, Grandma Shark, or Grandpa Shark. Special traits and attributes will be randomly assigned to each NFT, with a few surprises included.
Benefits and utilities for collectors that purchase an NFT from this 10K collection will include the ability to customize NFTs, eligibility for exclusive airdrops and gifts, and priority access to merchandise and immersive experiences held both on and offline.
