[PRESS RELEASE – Tampa, Florida, June 9, 2026]
Pro wrestling legend, international rock star, multi-time world champion, and lifelong collector Chris Jericho is officially joining Kokopi Koalas ahead of the June 11 mint on LaunchMyNFT: https://launchmynft.io/mint/kokopikoalas
Kokopi Koalas, a customizable NFT ecosystem on Solana, today announced a collaboration with global wrestling icon, musician, actor, and collector Chris Jericho. As part of the partnership, Jericho will work closely with the Kokopi community to create official Chris Jericho Traits that will be released in the project’s Trait Store.
Unlike traditional NFT collections where assets remain static after mint, Kokopi Koalas gives collectors the unique ability to continuously customize and evolve their digital collectibles through the Trait Store. Holders can acquire, swap, equip, and combine traits to produce one-of-a-kind Koalas that change and grow over time.
Chris Jericho to Host Live Community Trait Design Events on X and Discord
Jericho will host live community events where Kokopi holders can submit trait concepts inspired by his celebrated career. During these sessions, Jericho will review submissions and personally select winning designs that will become official Chris Jericho Traits available in the Trait Store.
Additionally, Kokopi token holders will receive VIP access to Jericho through the project’s Discord: https://discord.gg/kokopikoalas and X: https://x.com/KokopiCanopy. Perks include private voice chats, live sessions, spaces, giveaways, and direct engagement opportunities.
Real-World IP and Merchandise Utility
Beyond digital customization, Kokopi Koalas is extending NFT and trait ownership into real-world intellectual property. Holders who equip official traits—such as the upcoming Chris Jericho Trait—will be able to connect their wallet in the Trait Store at https://kokopikoalas.com/ to unlock exclusive access to limited-edition merchandise featuring their customized NFTs. Available items will include apparel, drinkware, posters, calendars, and toys, offered at discounts to Kokopi token and NFT holders. Holders can also register as affiliates to earn revenue by promoting personalized merchandise links.
Chris Jericho on Joining Kokopi Koalas
“I’ve spent my career entertaining people, bringing communities together, and collecting things that mean something. The Kokopi Koalas Trait Store model feels like the next step in digital collectibles. It puts creativity back in the hands of the fans, and when I saw what the Kokopi team was building, I knew I wanted to be not only an investor, but a partner!” — Chris Jericho
BTN, Co-Founder of Kokopi Koalas, added: “Chris Jericho embodies exactly what we’re building at Kokopi Koalas. He understands fandom, collecting, and the power of community. Having him actively involved with our holders to create a trait is a perfect reflection of our vision — putting real ownership and creative input back into the hands of the people who support the project. This collaboration goes beyond digital collectibles. With the introduction of real-world merch utility and Jericho-inspired traits, we’re showing that Kokopi Koalas is designed to grow and evolve long after mint. Chris has spent his career constantly reinventing himself across wrestling, music, and entertainment. There’s no better partner to help us unite diverse communities and demonstrate that NFTs can deliver lasting, meaningful experiences.”
Building the Future of Evolving Digital Collectibles
The Kokopi Koalas NFT mint on June 11 will showcase a new model of interactive digital ownership. Instead of a one-time static purchase, holders will be able to continuously upgrade, swap, and personalize their NFTs through ongoing trait releases, collaborations with other NFT and token projects, limited trait drops, and celebrity- and community-driven content.
The Chris Jericho Trait will be the first celebrity-backed trait introduced into the Kokopi ecosystem. These partnerships expand customization options and create meaningful cross-community connections among projects both inside and outside Solana.
Kokopi Koalas recently announced plans to release soccer-inspired traits ahead of this summer’s World Cup. NFT holders will be able to equip their Kokopi NFTs with country jerseys/kits, stadium backgrounds, and other soccer-themed traits.
Further details about the live trait design events, submission process, and mint will be shared through Kokopi Koalas’ official channels. You can also sign up for notifications at: https://kokopikoalas.com/
