# IP Strategy & Character Evolution

Our launch characters are meme-inspired, tapping into the culture of Web3. However, we recognize the potential for intellectual property constraints if certain memes become trademark-sensitive in the future.

Our long-term character strategy includes:

* Creating a new generation of original, fully-owned characters
* Evolving existing designs into legally distinct personalities with unique lore
* Launching storylines, animations, and branding around our in-house IP

This transition protects our scalability into retail, entertainment, merchandise, and cross-game integration.
