Imagine Nintendo or The Pokémon Company exploring what Sega, Bandai Namco and Square Enix are already involved with, with NFT and gaming focused blockchain. If a job listing discovered early this week becomes a thing, don’t be surprised if Pokémon is next.
VGC saw a job listing in Linkedin that searches for a person that can work in as their new corporate development principal.
The description includes that the candidate will be an “instrumental role” in The Pokémon Company’s President & Corporate Development Office.
Of course I am not reposting the listing but the interesting part is that part of the role includes “deep knowledge and understanding of Web 3, including blockchain technologies and NFT, and/or metaverse” and also “deeply connected to a network of investors and entrepreneurs in the technology sectors above (Web3 and metaverse)”.
The speculation here is that maybe The Pokémon Company is exploring opportunities and it doesn’t mean looking for a Pikachu or Mewtwo NFT in exchange of just mere ownership for example.
Despite the volatile and the downing tendency of the current market, it is safe to say that it is not the time to make some big compromises in my opinion as cryptocurrency is still far from recovering from the so-called Crypto Winter.
