The Walt Disney Company, commonly known as Disney, attracts people from around the world, and this has translated well into the world of digital collectibles. To date, the Disney NFT collections have all sold out within minutes of being released.
Considering the NFT cards only cost $60, it’s easy to understand why they’re in such high demand. Disney’s worldwide popularity ensures that these cards will appreciate in value based on their value as digital assets.
There has been recent speculation that some big news is in the making, likely resulting in a Disney acquisition in the NFT market. This group has a long history in entertainment and has achieved incredible commercial success. Currently, they are focusing on dominating the digital and NFT markets.
While our imaginations fly and we explore the amazing possibilities, let’s take a closer look at Disney’s NFT journey thus far.
Golden Moments On VeVe App
There is no surprise that Disney’s legacy has made its way into the digital collectibles world. As the owner of many of the most iconic and enduring characters in the world of animation, Disney understands the potential of the digital world, as well as blockchain technology.
As the demand for Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) skyrocketed last year, Disney took advantage of the opportunity and partnered with VeVe to offer NFTs on the mobile app for digital collectibles.
According to former Disney CEO Bob Iger, Disney’s prospects in the NFT space is “extraordinary,” – and it appears that Disney believes the same way.
The Golden Moments NFT collection by Disney was released in November 2021, showcasing golden statues of memorable characters from several Disney films, such as Star Wars, Marvel movies, and Pixar movies.
A ‘blind box’ format was adopted by Disney for drop day, with buyers not knowing what they would receive until the box was opened. There was a rapid sellout of the collection, with the majority of NFTs selling for $60, reaching values as high as $2,000 in some cases.
Mickey And Friends, Pixar Pals
A collection of NFTs themed around Mickey Mouse and Friends was launched on January 29th, selling out almost instantly. The famous characters were turned into hand-painted digital art collectibles in collaboration with Disney artists Morgane Keesling and Naty Kosloff. There are a number of Mickey Mouse characters in the collection, including Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, Pluto, and Goofy.
The latest Disney NFT drop, Pixar Pals, arrived Sunday, March 13th, and the whole collection of 54,995 NFTs was sold out within minutes. In other words, Disney seemed to have scooped a cool $3.3 million. Stars from Pixar Animation Studios appeared in the drop; among them are Sheriff Woody, Mike Wazowski, Lightning McQueen, The House from Up, and Edna Mode.
This time around, the NFTs were again released in ‘blind box’ packages, adding a bit of fun to the event, although, for $60, it wasn’t exactly an extravagant purchase. The VeVe app’s secondary market witnessed a 400% appreciation in the value of these NFTs.
Where Can You Buy A Disney NFT?

If you don’t want to wait any longer, then here are some simple steps to get your hands on a Disney Non-Fungible Token, which can be purchased through the VeVe app. Initial drops of each collection sold out immediately, so you’ll be able to purchase them at a higher price on the VeVe secondary market.

Disney legends like Mickey and all those who followed him are highly valuable as digital art.
