Today, The Worldwide Asset eXchange™ (WAX), the world’s leading entertainment NFT network, announced that Funko, a leading pop culture consumer products company, plans to extend Funko’s pop culture platform to include digital assets on the Blockchain.
Beginning in June of this year, Funko expects to launch their initial collectible NFT offerings using WAX’s powerful blockchain platform, which ensures verifiable authenticity for all NFT purchases.

Collectors can look forward to a new unique Funko property to be released on the WAX platform each week.
