Real Madrid and Barcelona have filed a joint trademark application for crypto and the metaverse.

Despite the buzz around deflation and the trading volume of NFTs declining in the second quarter of 2022, organisations, businesses, and celebrities all over the world are still attempting to get connected trademarks.

On August 11, Spanish football teams FC Barcelona and Real Madrid CF will cooperate for a combined cryptocurrency and Metaverse trademark application, according to Metaverse trademark attorney Mike Kondoudis, who posted the news on Twitter.

On August 5, rivals of El Clasico filed trademarks for virtual reality games, non-downloadable virtual apparel, shoes, and headgear, downloadable blockchain transaction management software, e-wallet software, and more.

Meanwhile, these two football stalwarts are far from the first to enter the burgeoning field. Crystal Palace, a British football team, filed a trademark for its logo in early July, which encompasses NFTs, cryptocurrencies, crypto exchanges, virtual attire, sports equipment, and more.

In addition, Paris Saint-Germain, the French football superpower, revealed in late March that it will launch NFT-backed multimedia, virtual clothes, sportswear, and gadgets, as well as crypto wallets and crypto transaction management.

Football stars are entering the NFT realm, with David Beckham filing three trademarks in April for NFTs, digital tokens, virtual clothes and footwear, and virtual events.

The English Premier League (EPL) filed two common trademark applications with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) in early June, for its name and “Lion head” emblems, as well as the ‘Loving cup trophy’ logo.

Furthermore, as Finbold revealed in late June, Cristiano Ronaldo struck an exclusive NFT collaboration agreement with crypto exchange Binance to develop various NFT products on the platform.
