In a bold move that combines nostalgia with cutting-edge technology, Disney is set to revolutionize its fan experience with the launch of “Disney Pinnacle,” a digital pin (*cough* nft) platform. This initiative, created in partnership with Dapper Labs, the brains behind NBA Top Shot, aims to transform the traditional hobby of collecting pins into a digital sensation.
Disney Pinnacle will offer collectors the opportunity to acquire and trade branded NFTs, minted on the Flow blockchain, featuring characters from Disney’s centuries-old history, along with Pixar icons and figures from the Star Wars universe.
TL;DR:
- Disney is launching “Disney Pinnacle,” a digital pin nft platform, in collaboration with Dapper Labs, creators of NBA Top Shot, which also features characters from Disney, Pixar and Star Wars.
- This initiative is not Disney’s first digital venture, following its previous launch of limited-edition nft Star Wars toys with Cryptoys.
- Disney Pinnacle aims to offer a global, interactive collecting and trading experience. It will also be released on the Apple App Store at the end of the year.

Disney’s biggest nft move to date? Or will The Pinnacle witness a downfall?
This venture is not Disney’s first digital rodeo. Previously, they partnered with Cryptoys to release limited edition Star Wars nft toys. This showed Disney’s growing interest in the digital consumer products space. What sets Disney Pinnacle apart is its focus on creating a “socially driven collectible experience.” It also combines the charm of classic Disney memorabilia with the dynamism of the digital age.
Roham Gharegozlou, CEO of Dapper Labs, emphasizes that Disney Pinnacle is born from extensive experience and learning from previous projects. The platform promises to offer a smooth, secure and engaging trading experience. Fans around the world will be able to collect dynamic pins on their smartphones. In addition, they will be able to make instant and secure transactions, regardless of their location.
The effort marks a significant step in Disney’s digital transformation, harnessing the loyalty and enthusiasm of its enormous global fan base. With its previous success in the nft space, Dapper Labs brings valuable experience to this collaboration. The synergy between Disney’s storytelling prowess and Dapper Labs’ technological know-how could redefine digital collectibles. This further makes Disney Pinnacle a potential game-changer in the nft world.
Disney Pinnacle Platform Set to Launch on Apple App Store by the end of the year, signaling Disney’s commitment to staying at the forefront of digital innovation while keeping its cherished traditions alive in the hearts of its fans.
