The number of trademark filings for NFTs and virtual products and services from the restaurant and food/beverage sectors are expected to increase, noting that earlier this year, McDonald’s announced plans to move into the metaverse, and other food companies owned by brands like Pizza Hut and Taco Bell, also filed for trademarks for its name and logo for drinks and foods.
