​News that is not related to Binance or FTX.

Alright, time for something completely different.

For this story, we’re talking about lobsters.

No SBF, no CZ, just lobsters.

Here’s what’s going on:

​OneOf - an NFT startup, just announced that it’s partnered with online seafood delivery service, Get Maine Lobster, to create an NFT-based membership club.

Members with the Lobster Perks+ membership NFT will receive fresh seafood shipped to them directly, from Maine.

Anyone who purchases one of the Lobster Perks+ NFTs will also be entered into a sweepstakes, with prizes that include additional free lobster deliveries, merchandise, and a lobster fishing expedition with the founder of Get Maine Lobster.

Here’s why it’s cool:

This is yet another interesting use case for Web3. The merging of NFTs as memberships and the food industry had to happen sooner than later.

As for the sweepstakes; could they have achieved the same thing, without NFTs? Absolutely. Would it have been as fun? We like to think using NFTs added some spice.

Also, lobster. Who doesn’t love lobster?

Here's why it's also kind of stupid:

This has big 'product for the rich' energy to it - and while there's nothing wrong with serving those kinds of market segments, the developments that REALLY excite us are ones that will spur mass-adoption of Web3.

(And this ain't it).

Hope you enjoyed our small digression away from Binance and FTX for a hot minute.
