Unagi, the French studio behind the Persona Journey NFT collection and the fantasy sports game Ultimate Champions, has entered court-ordered liquidation, and a court-appointed liquidator is now selling its assets. Bidders have until 2 November 2026 to submit offers, Crypto Briefing and The Defiant reported.
What is for sale
- Persona Journey IP: artwork, manga, smart contracts and creator rights.
- A treasury of 957 Persona NFTs held by the company.
- UNA token contracts. UNA is the ecosystem token that replaced Unagi's earlier CHAMP token in January 2024.
- Ultimate Champions, the free-to-play fantasy football and basketball game built on licensed digital trading cards, plus a white-label fantasy platform other operators could rebrand.
- Fantasy Brainz, an unreleased prediction game, and AI tools including Records AI, a content-creation platform.
Assets can be bought separately. A data room with English and French documents is open to qualified bidders who sign confidentiality agreements.

What it means for holders
Persona Journey has done more than 10,500 ETH in secondary trading, according to Crypto Briefing — more than five times its mint. But there is no commitment to keep the games or platforms running once the assets change hands. Whoever buys the 957-NFT treasury will also control a noticeable slice of the 8,888-piece collection, which could affect the secondary market depending on whether they hold or sell.
The UNA sale covers the token contracts, not tokens in holders' own wallets. Holders keep their tokens and NFTs on-chain, but their usefulness depends on whether anyone continues the projects.
Context
It is another sign of pressure on NFT businesses, days after the Blur marketplace said it will close its website on 12 November. Persona Journey and most NFT collections live on Ethereum. If a project you hold goes into wind-down, expect impostor "claim" or "migration" sites — our guide on how to spot crypto scams explains the warning signs.
