Today, Dapper Labs, the Vancouver-based startup best known as the creator of NBA Top Shot and CryptoKitties, popular marketplaces for tokenized digital collectibles known as NFTs, announced a partnership with the celebrity-driven avatar technology company Genies to build a new marketplace on Dapper Labs’ Flow blockchain. Dapper Labs is currently valued at over $7.5 billion (according to a source familiar with the matter).

Genies will also periodically have challenges for users to unlock special wearables. Dapper Labs and Genies hope to launch the beta version sometime in the third quarter. Financial details
