To celebrate the SuperBowl, Frank's RedHot is releasing its first non-fungible token (which is being called an edible NFT or eNFT) and its first cryptocurrency called Bonecoin. According to the spicy hot sauce brand, Bonecoin is a "wing-based currency that has nothing to do with real money.”
Hot wings are a staple game day snack and the brand is recognizing this by giving fans the chance to earn Bonecoin by scanning images of their chicken wings and sharing them. The fan who collects the most Bonecoin by the end of the campaign period will get the exclusive Frank’s RedHot NFT as well as an edible prize.
Increasingly, fans are being introduced to the world of cryptocurrency and collectible digital assets by their favorite brands also offering physical incentives alongside them.
