Nike is facing a class-action lawsuit in the Eastern District Court of New York over shutting down its digital asset unit, RTFKT, in December 2024.
Plaintiffs allege that Nike's RTFKT closure caused the collapse of NFT values and accuse the company of selling unregistered securities without proper disclosure.
The lawsuit seeks more than $5 million in damages from Nike.
Despite setbacks, the NFT gaming and digital expansion continues with companies like Futureverse acquiring Candy Digital and various gaming giants exploring NFT integration.
