Soneium and DayOneDream Partner on K-Pop IP

Soneium has formed a partnership with DayOneDream to bring K-pop intellectual property and associated revenue onchain as tokenized assets. Announced at an event in Seoul during Korea Blockchain Week 2026, the partnership centers on the K-pop IP tokenization platform WAVIST. DayOneDream is the company behind K-pop artists including BTOB, Lee Chae Yeon, MEMI, and 2F.

The collaboration aims to offer tokenized K-content assets and connected revenue streams onchain. Eligible users will receive new ways to access the IP they support, while IP owners will gain new monetization avenues. In May, WAVIST completed the entire lifecycle of a tokenized IP bond, covering issuance, final redemption, and burning. Soneium and WAVIST stated that they will continue to offer these tokenized assets and revenue streams in the future.

WAVIST previously operated its tokenized assets on Story, a rival blockchain focused on intellectual property. WAVIST's initial asset sales reached a total of USD $3.22 million with Singapore's SBI Digital Markets and Korea's Kyobo Life Insurance. Investment products from WAVIST are offered outside the United States under Regulation S and are not available to US persons. In separate corporate developments, DayOneDream completed the acquisition of WITCH Company in May, which was later renamed Pledge Inc.
