ANECDOTE

From Free NFT To Million-Cans

  • Rekt started as a free NFT art side project and became a tight-knit community over years.
  • That community enabled OSF to launch physical drinks and sell nearly one million cans in 12 months.
INSIGHT

Tokens Represent Brand Goodwill

  • Brand tokens capture intangible brand value similar to goodwill on a balance sheet.
  • People buy tokens to express sentiment and belong, not always as cash-flow-based investments.
ADVICE

Align Token Holders And Equity Holders

  • Put stakeholders on the same team by distributing equity carefully and compliantly.
  • Plan entity structure and future token-equity mechanics early to prevent the token from being left behind.
