Ponke, a meme coin, has partnered with 223, a spinout of JCorp, to produce adult-focused collectibles and apparel. They are exploring products like blind box collectibles, high-end toys, and cannabis-related items, and will showcase designs at the Las Vegas Licensing Expo. This collaboration aims to leverage NFC technology for features like token rewards and proofs of authenticity through NFTs. Ponke plans to broaden its product range and improve website capabilities to distribute more widely. This partnership represents a significant shift for Ponke, transitioning from a viral meme into a scalable consumer business. The ultimate goal is to enrich the Ponke brand and engage a wider audience in the digital ownership space, while also tapping into counter-culture markets. Discussions with established brands are ongoing, and future offerings may include products catering specifically to crypto-adjacent lifestyles, such as those involving cannabis.
