  • The Bruce Lee Estate collaborates with NFT-driven video platform Shibuya to release an open edition Ethereum NFT called “House of Lee: Genesis,” featuring hand-drawn artwork by Emily “pplpleasr” Yang and designed with input from Shannon Lee.
  • The minting period for the NFT started on April 12, 2023, and will end on April 15, 2023, with each NFT available for purchase at 0.008 ETH (approximately $15).
  • This collaboration marks the beginning of an ongoing Web3 partnership between the Bruce Lee Estate and Shibuya, with potential interactive video content featuring Bruce Lee.

The legendary martial artist and actor Bruce Lee’s estate is making a foray into the world of Web3 thanks to a new partnership with Shibuya, an NFT-driven video platform. This collaboration is set to bring Bruce Lee fans a one-of-a-kind experience, starting with an open edition NFT featuring the iconic figure, hand-drawn by artist Emily “pplpleasr” Yang.

Unveiling the “House of Lee: Genesis” NFT

In partnership with Shibuya, the Bruce Lee Estate has released an open edition Ethereum NFT called “House of Lee: Genesis.” The artwork showcases a hand-drawn illustration of Bruce Lee, created by Emily “pplpleasr” Yang and designed in collaboration with Shannon Lee, Bruce Lee’s daughter and the founder and president of the Bruce Lee Estate.

The minting of this unique NFT began on April 12, 2023, and will end on April 15, 2023. During this time, an unlimited number of NFTs can be purchased for 0.008 ETH each, roughly $15. As stated on the Manifold Mint page, this NFT serves as “your ticket to the House of Lee,” although further details about its utility or plans have yet to be revealed.

Ongoing Web3 Collaboration and Popularity of Open Edition NFTs

The “House of Lee: Genesis” NFT release marks the beginning of an ongoing Web3 collaboration between Shibuya and the Bruce Lee Estate. While no specifics about future projects have been disclosed, Shibuya has a history of creating original video series involving NFT holders in production.

Open edition NFTs like the “House of Lee: Genesis” have gained popularity in recent months, primarily due to their affordability and gamification techniques. These factors incentivize collectors to purchase and even burn multiple editions in exchange for rewards. Fans of Bruce Lee can look forward to possible video content featuring the martial arts legend, as the teaser clip of the NFT indicates that Shibuya is already working on Bruce Lee’s animation.

Expectations and Impact in the NFT and Web3 Space

As Shibuya is known for creating interactive video series that allow NFT holders to influence the storyline, it’s highly anticipated that the Bruce Lee NFTs might follow a similar path. With projects like the White Rabbit animated series and “Dominion X: Level 2” series by Steve Aoki and Seth Green’s Stoopid Buddy Stoodios, NFT holders have been given the power to choose the narrative path and vote on the conclusion of each new segment.

Although it remains to be seen whether Shibuya will adopt the same approach for Bruce Lee content, the teaser clip already showcases the work done on Bruce Lee’s animation. To celebrate the launch of the NFT, the teaser clip will be displayed on a Times Square video billboard in New York City during the NFT.NYC conference.

The partnership between the Bruce Lee Estate and Shibuya marks an exciting development in the world of NFTs and Web3. With the release of the “House of Lee: Genesis” NFT and the potential for interactive video content, fans can look forward to a unique and engaging experience that pays homage to the late martial arts icon. This collaboration sets the stage for a new era of digital collectibles, making the legacy of Bruce Lee accessible to a broader audience in the ever-evolving world of Web3.
