Kingship, developed by Universal Music Group’s 10:22PM, has expanded from token-enabled playlists on Spotify to Roblox with the launch of “Kingship Islands.” This interactive game takes players to an island paradise where they embark on a quest to unite the band members of Kingship.

Exclusive Perks for NFT Holders
Holders of the “Kingship Key Card” NFT receive special perks such as exclusive Roblox badges and access to a “Floating Villa” within the game.
A Band of BAYC Characters
Kingship operates as a metaverse band with characters derived from Bored Ape Yacht Club NFT avatars. The Bored Ape Yacht Club creator, Yuga Labs, grants certain rights to NFT holders, allowing them to develop and sell derivative projects using the iconic artwork.
The Rise and Fall of ApeCoin
In 2022, the Bored Ape Yacht Club community launched their own governance token called ApeCoin. While it initially surged in the market, its value has since declined.
