The Reason Behind Jack Daniel’s Move Into the NFT world
Whiskey lovers will have to wait and see how Jack Daniel’s moves into the Metaverse and web3. The infamous brands join a growing list of web2 brands looking to transition into web3 and therefore solidify their names in the NFT space early.
Alcoholic Drinks in The NFT Scene
While Jack Daniel’s Tennessee whiskey has a reputation that precedes it, it’s certainly not the first liquor brand to enter the NFT space. For example, Block Bar is one of the biggest names in the web3 liquor space and partnesr with some incredible brands. Some of its previous releases include Patron NFTs and Johnnie Walker NFTs too.
Furthermore, Daniel’s competitor Ardbeg launched NFT for their Fon Fhoid Whisky in April this year. Additionally, it is not only alcoholic drinks but also other beverage businesses that are also making the transition. These include Red Bull, Crown Royal, and McDonald’s, among many others.
