Dibbs taps users of its blockchain-based collectibles marketplace to uncover first-of-its-kind insights on user sentiment toward NFT technology
LOS ANGELES–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Dibbs, the world’s onramp to Web3, today released findings from the industry’s first NFT Sentiment Report, which surveyed hundreds of NFT adopters to understand consumer sentiment around NFTs today and into the future. In a largely pseudonymous industry where NFT holders can be hard to reach, Dibbs is uniquely positioned to tap the highly engaged users of its marketplace to understand broader sentiments around the evolving NFT industry and what the future of ownership looks like alongside the growth of Web3 and the Metaverse.
The survey found that 84 percent of respondents would purchase NFTs if they are redeemable for physical items. Proving a growing excitement for digital innovations like Web3 and the Metaverse, the data also indicates a clear desire for a platform that securely enables a digital presence for real-life collectibles—an untapped market that Dibbs is tackling through an end-to-end tokenization platform that mints and redeems collectible-backed NFTs.
While supporting the need to bridge the gap between physical and digital worlds, Dibbs’ NFT Sentiment Report also indicates hesitation around NFTs, with half of respondents stating they don’t trust NFTs and cryptocurrency due to risks such as spam and fraud. To that end, nearly half of respondents agree that NFTs and cryptocurrency should be regulated similarly to financial services to protect consumers.
Other key findings the survey uncovered include:
“We’re seeing similar intrigue and enthusiasm around Web3 as we did with the evolution of Web2 and social media platforms. Consumers today are eager to engage more meaningfully with one another—and the brands they care about most—in more digitally-driven, modern ways,” said Ben Plomion, Chief Marketing Officer, Dibbs. “But these enthusiastic consumers have been met with unregulated, risky opportunities and uncertainty around the technologies driving these innovations. Our survey data supports growing enthusiasm around Web3 technologies but also highlights an untapped market that helps brands and consumers navigate this digital transition with ease and confidence. Dibbs is doing just that with a customer-centric approach to tokenization, and we’re excited that consumers also see a future where physical items can seamlessly and securely live within digital worlds.”
