According to licensed trademark attorney Mike Kondoudis, the race-car league filed eight trademark applications on Oct. 5 covering cryptocurrency, nonfungible tokens (NFTs), crypto marketplaces, retail stores for virtual goods, cryptocurrency trading and mining, and blockchain financial transactions.

The filed trademarks suggest that F1 has plans to play an active role inthe emerging Web3 ecosystemwith its trademark covering software for use with cryptocurrency, meta tokens, digital collectibles and NFTs, as well as software for digital currency payment and exchange transactions.

Beyond software, Formula One also plans to offer retail store services in virtual goods, as well as provide an online marketplace for buyers and sellers of cryptocurrencies and NFTs.

According to the trademark filed, F1 will also dabble in financial transactions via blockchain technology by providing a digital currency or digital token. The scope of the trademark also extends to entertainment services using virtual goods, namely downloadable artwork, cryptocurrency, digital collectibles, crypto-collectibles and NFTs for use in online, virtual, augmented and mixed-reality environments.

In August, Cointelegraph reported that F1's trademark departmentregistered two new trademark filingswith the United States Patent and Trademark Office for the Las Vegas Strip Circuit, where the company’s brand and logo were going to be listed on a wide range of goods and services during next year’s race.

F1 is among several major brands to seek exposure to the Web3 economy, which is still in its nascent stages. Asset managers have also recognized the potential, with exchange-traded fund (ETF) issuer Bitwise recently launchinga Web3 ETFfor institutional and retail investors.

Auto-Erotic Sphinx with Toys
In this image, a giant sphinx spoons itself in erotic play within an aquatic styled environment littered by various denizens. These creatures include symbols and archetypes both current and nostalgic–each inhabiting a rootedness within mass cultural adolescence. Among the roster are Servbots, video game inspired mushrooms, a Pacman-like creature, a distant sea faring rubber duck, creatures sporting the symbols reminiscent of popular anime, and a Pokemon-like rabbit (a novel incarnation of Ganesha indicated by the Shiva trident on its nose). In addition, a few sea creatures partly inspired by sea monsters of western antiquity conglomerate along the mid left side of the composition. The Sphinx itself is an amalgam of aquatic, fetishist, ancient Egyptian, and 80’s style adornments, both living, as in a clown fish, or material, such as a cassette tape. Nautically colored antennae receive somatic signals from the atmosphere, perhaps from the 8 Ball moon or giant ringed planet beyond.
