As Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies show some sign of life again, it seems to be attracting attention from the public. Nike is said to have filed for a Cryptokicks patent. Could this eventually lead to a Nikecoin?

Nike is the latest to get into the crypto race with the company filing a patent for Cryptokicks. The news first broke out when Twitter user @JoshGerben tweeted about the patent which is now bringing up the possibility of Nike launching its own cryptocurrency.

Nike is not the only major organisation looking into Cryptocurrencies. Earlier this month, The IMF and the World Bank also launched a trial cryptocurrency.

Yelp, the directory social website added an “accepts cryptocurrency” filter on their website, making it easy for users to locate merchants who accept cryptocurrencies.

If this Cryptokicks patent goes through and Nike also pushing further with a coin, this could be another huge accomplishment towards mass adoption and for the cryptocurrency community.
