Do you have a talent for picking winners? Do you follow athletes’ careers and know who is gonna be successful? So why not benefit from that?! Upcoming NFT Platform OWNIC empowers sports fans to earn from the real world performance of the stars they pick using dynamic NFTs. It introduces a number of revolutionary concepts to the space of collectible sports cards that will create new ways for fans to earn from fantasy sports leagues and metaverse gaming. OWNIC has also already proven its credibility with exclusive partnerships with top global athletes in the fields of soccer and MMA. The NFT platform will launch on August 22, 2022 with the Pre-Sale for the collection of the captain of the Italian national football team and Juventus F.C., Leonardo Bonucci.
OWNIC is an upcoming platform for NFT (non-fungible token) sports collectibles where an athlete’s performance is reflected on a card via innovative, dynamic NFT (dNFT) technology, bringing tamper-proof data on-chain. Each OWNIC dNFT will have its own “xP” score – representing a card’s power – which is updated based on the athlete’s career achievements, with changes triggered by real world milestones as well as gamified elements.
In an environment where anyone can just upload an image and try to sell it as an NFT, the OWNIC ecosystem is built exclusively around officially licensed NFTs. This means that for every dNFT that is released on the platform, a licensing agreement is signed with the corresponding athlete or team. This not only strengths the legitimacy of the platform but also ensures each dNFT is truly unique – with official backing from the sports stars – and thus protects the investments of the collectors.

OWNIC will provide five main utilities to their community including dNFT Staking, VirtualScout, MetaTeam, InnerCircle and ClubDAO. These will allow collectors to play, earn, interact and govern with their collectibles. The developers are committed to make at least three of these distinct utilities accessible before the end of the year, with the first two to become available being dNFT Staking and VirtualScout.
The implementation of dNFT Staking will transform the cards into true digital assets, generating long-term value for holders. MetaTeam will be a club building simulator and metaverse where collectors assemble sports clubs with their dNFTs and compete against one another. VirtualScout is an innovative Play-to-Earn football scouting competition where dNFT holders are rewarded with exclusive OWNIC cards and prize money based on success across competitive tournaments. InnerCircle unlocks unique rewards like signed merchandise, access to events and the athletes’ metaverse, as well as direct interactions with the athletes themselves. ClubDAO will be a sports club that OWNIC will acquire and the community will govern via a Decentralized Autonomous Organization.
Beyond the technology, the number one metric to judge the future success of a sports collectibles platform is the quality of the partnerships it is able to onboard. In that sense OWNIC has a lot to be proud of as the platform will launch on August 22, 2022 with an incredible Pre-Sale. It will kick off with the collection of none other than the captain of the Italian national football team and Juventus F.C., Leonardo Bonucci.
This first collection, which will give collectors direct access to “il Capitano” himself, comes with seven types of randomly minted Bonucci cards, each with varying levels of xP, rarity and exclusivity. It represents a great opportunity for the community and gives collectors an amazing chance to get started on the OWNIC platform. The first release will be shortly followed by drops of notable Serie A players, with the likes of fellow Italian professional footballers Manuel Lazzari, Simone Verdi, Marco Carnesecchi, Simone Bastoni and more.

In accordance with the OWNIC Roadmap, the first phase of the project marked the website launch and the first big exclusive partnership announcement. There is also a Marketplace beta launch coming up, which will enable users to trade their NFTs directly on the site. The next phase will see a token launch, a collection pre-sale in addition to a variety of drops, and Marketplace will also have a stable release with an auction function. The third phase aims to bring more drops, staking becoming available and the release of a rewards system, as well as the VirtualScout NFT utility beta launch. The forth phase promises to bring fifteen new collections, with roadmaps for the Metaverse, ClubDAO, in addition to plenty of new partnership announcements.
Following the release of the Leonardo Bonucci dNFT cards, OWNIC has already committed to launching an MMA collection with legendary fighters already on board. Former UFC Lightweight Champion Rafael Dos Anjos has announced on Instagram his partnership with OWNIC, along with former UFC Heavyweight Champion Fabricio Werdum, who has joined the platform as an MMA advisor and ambassador. Additional MMA stars to take part include Alex Pereira, Marvin Vettori, Thiago Santos and Glover Teixeira.
With all of the aforementioned developments and all the innovative utilities OWNIC brings to the table, this NFT platform is set to truly revolutionize the space of collectible sports cards and to offer collectors amazing investment opportunities with dNFTs.
