Trendex, the dominant force in athlete tokenization in Europe and supported by Y Combinator, is thrilled to embark on an exciting new phase of its evolution. With a successful funding round that raised over $4 million from European and Asian investors, including renowned football star Karim Benzema, Trendex has cultivated a community of nearly 100,000 customers spanning across Europe. Now, the company has set its sights on the U.S. market. To accelerate its expansion in America, Trendex has recently announced partnerships with NBA stars Marcus Smart of the Grizzlies and Rudy Gobert of the Timberwolves, both esteemed NBA Defensive Players of the Year. Additionally, Trendex has strategically acquired Gummys, a groundbreaking decentralized video and streaming platform, in order to broaden its reach from sports to e-sports and YouTubers.
“Join the rapidly growing Trendex, where NBA and football superstars are coming together. Here, you can trade tokens linked to the personal brand of emerging football and basketball players, among other categories. With over 200 talents already available for trading, the possibilities are endless.”
Gummys: The Streamers & Creators Powerhouse Joins the Trendex Family
In a bid to expand its services to content creators and streamers, Trendex has successfully acquired Gummys, a platform that has taken the gaming community by storm. Founded by serial entrepreneurs Pasquale Sorrentino and Eunice Wong, Gummys has gained a massive following, attracting nearly half a million users across its social media channels. The platform’s innovative decentralized approach, which has been acclaimed at Chainlink, Polygon, and Filecoin hackathons, offers users a unique space to discover new YouTubers, gaming streamers, and games. It also allows them to connect with their favorite creators and earn rewards.
A Winning Combination: Talent, Technology, and Community
This acquisition marks a pivotal moment for Trendex. The cutting-edge decentralized streaming technology of Gummys will seamlessly integrate with Trendex’s existing talent tokenization platform. This collaboration will enhance user engagement, content delivery, and social media interaction, propelling both platforms into a new era of digital content and community building.
Beyond Athletes: Tokenizing Creators with Gummys’ Technology
With over 250 esteemed athletes, artists, musicians, influencers, and actors already part of the Trendex family, the acquisition of Gummys opens up thrilling possibilities for creators beyond the realms of sports and entertainment.
Leveraging Gummys’ technology, Trendex will introduce a groundbreaking service: tokenizing creators such as YouTubers and enabling their audience to share in their success. This is made possible through Gummys’ unique tech, which empowers creators to:
– Have ownership of their content through on-chain metadata
– Directly share revenue with their audience
– Benefit from community-regulated censorship and incentivized engagement
This innovative approach will revolutionize talent monetization, enabling creators to build sustainable careers and forge deeper connections with their fans. This aligns perfectly with Trendex’s mission of supporting talents in their careers while fostering rewarding connections with their fanbase.
The Future of Talent Tokenization is Now
With a vision of surpassing a customer base of 1 million and committing to achieving 1,000 tokenized talent deals by 2026, Trendex is poised to become the leading platform for talents and creators to achieve unparalleled success in the ever-evolving digital landscape.
Stay tuned for this extraordinary journey.
