Sam’s Club, a subsidiary of Walmart, is exploring the use of blockchain and digital currencies.

The retailer recently filed trademarks for the management of NFTs, the offering of digital goods, and the provision of cryptocurrency-based software.

In 2018, Walmart launched Bulkcoin, a cryptocurrency exclusive to Sam’s Club members.

The company has also indicated its interest in the metaverse and has filed several trademarks for virtual reality and blockchain-based goods, including augmented reality, education, healthcare, NFTs, and cryptocurrencies.

Walmart is reportedly hiring for several cryptography and cybersecurity positions for a blockchain initiative.
