XDAO: ONE TOKEN — THE KEY TO THE ENTIRE ECOSYSTEM

Dear community, here is the full picture: what the XDAO token is, why it exists, and how it will work.

✅ How it started
Five years ago, XDAO began as a non-commercial experiment built on a simple idea: to give anyone on the planet the ability to create and manage their own digital autonomous organization (DAO) — through code and voting, without lawyers, offices, or special permissions. The first version launched on BNB Chain and won the Binance Hackathon right away. That told us the idea was alive, in demand, and worth building on.

Over the years, the project grew alongside the largest Web3 ecosystems: BNB Chain, Polygon, Arbitrum, and dozens of other EVM networks. And on TON, we ran the largest educational campaign in our history — more than 12 million people learned the basics of DAOs there.

Five years on, the numbers speak for themselves:
• more than 32,000 organizations created on the platform;
• over $55M raised by communities through smart contracts;
• 45+ blockchains where XDAO is deployed and running.

At the same time, the core EVM smart contracts were free in 2021 and remain completely free today.

✅ A new chapter: Solana and a U.S. legal foundation
We are now building a product for Solana with a full legal framework in the United States, incorporated in the state of Delaware.

This is a new kind of infrastructure: organizations run not only by people, but also by AI agents that act strictly within the mandate set by their owners, stay within on-chain limits, and never make a single decision without human confirmation.

Solana brings speed and institutional readiness, while Delaware provides the legal foundation to work with funds, family offices, and investment syndicates. Together, they form the basis for a new stage of growth — one that reaches far beyond DeFi.

✅ Security
Before we talk about the token, a word on security.

The platform has passed dozens of independent audits, including reviews by industry leaders Quantstamp and CertiK. This year, our EVM infrastructure underwent an additional review involving Anthropic's Mythos AI model and the Trail of Bits team as part of Project Glasswing — no critical vulnerabilities were found in the protocol core.

✅ The XDAO token — your key to the entire ecosystem
To unite 45+ EVM networks, TON, and Solana into a single system, you need one key. That key is the new cross-chain XDAO token, with a single balance across every supported network.

Access to the interface — including the frontend of the free EVM products — will be open only to token holders. The smart contracts themselves stay open and free, but the token will be required to activate the application where you create and manage your organization.

✅ What it gives holders
• Activation and access — the token is needed to create and launch a DAO on any supported network.
• Reputation and visibility — an organization's XDAO balance affects its rank and visibility within the ecosystem.
• Better terms — lower fees and priority access across the platform.

✅ TGE and protection against fakes
We are now preparing for the TGE. The exact tokenomics, dates, and listing details will be announced closer to launch, and only through official XDAO channels. If you already see tokens with similar names ($XDAO, $DAO, and the like) on third-party platforms — that is not us. Trust only the website www.xdao.app, our verified official Telegram channels (t.me/xdaoapp and t.me/xdaoapp_ru), and our account x.com/xdaoapp on X (Twitter).

The launch of the XDAO token is not about chasing hype — it is the natural continuation of the story we have been building since 2021. Thank you for being with us these five years. The best is still ahead 💙

TGE PREPARATION AND IMPORTANT AIRDROP UPDATES

Hi everyone, dear community! 👋 The XDAO team has officially started preparing for the TGE.

Since our cross-chain protocol runs across many networks, and a large-scale launch on Solana is coming, our token will most likely be available on several networks at once. We will announce the exact details and tokenomics a bit later, closer to the event itself. For now — the main news.

🗓 Bot launch — June 10
On this day, a bot with detailed instructions will go live. Important: all participants of our educational campaign will need to open it and connect their additional Solana wallet.

🎁 Softer drop criteria
We decided to make you happy — the team has revised the airdrop conditions in favor of the community. Now EVERYONE who took part in our educational campaign will get tokens. Yes, even those users who did not create their own DAO. And those who created one and met all the conditions will get significantly more.

Be sure to forward this post to all your friends and partners who farmed tokens together with you. No one should miss the drop!

Turn on your notifications and wait for the bot link on June 10. See you soon 💙

XDAO IS TRAINING AI TO RUN DIGITAL COMPANIES

Dear community, we have a lot of important updates to share, and we want to give you a clear picture of where XDAO is headed.

🤖 Expanding to Solana and Embracing AI

The XDAO team is building a product for fully legal DAOs in US jurisdictions, powered by the Solana blockchain.

Why Solana? It's one of the fastest-growing blockchains with a strong developer community, especially in the US, which is currently the most active market for DAOs. On top of that, the US has a well-developed legal framework that enables compliant cryptocurrency operations and governance. But this isn't just about choosing a market or a blockchain. We're building a fundamentally new, fully AI-native protocol.

Specialized agents, what we call "AI bureaucrats", will handle DAO setup and take care of all the heavy lifting for you: registration, paperwork, and other operational tasks. With this, you get truly autonomous governance: you'll be able to plug in AI as a full-fledged manager of your organization, operating within the parameters you define. This isn't an upgrade to an old model. It's a completely new vision of what DAOs can be.

💎 The Future of XDAO on TON

Our product on TON is fully operational, and we continue to maintain it — releasing updates, fixing bugs, and providing user support. But we want to be upfront with you: our focus is shifting.

TON Foundation has its own priorities and direction right now, and unfortunately, we weren't able to build a partnership or get across that DAO infrastructure, combined with Telegram's massive audience potential, could be a strong direction for the ecosystem. We respect our colleagues' choices — every team has its own journey.

We have a strong track record of integrating with major networks: BNB, Polygon, Arbitrum, and 40+ other EVM chains. However, the TON ecosystem is currently more oriented toward GameFi, gifts, and other mass-market products — and there's not much space yet for serious infrastructure solutions like DAOs. We're still in the game and ready to ramp up development in this direction as soon as conditions become more favorable.

✅ XDAO Token & Airdrop: What You Need to Know

Dear community, we deeply appreciate your contribution to the project. For those who have been farming tokens and creating DAOs on TON: you've already done everything you need to do. No additional actions are required. The crowdfunding, vesting, and distribution modules are only relevant for those actively using the product to raise liquidity and manage finances. They are not required to qualify for the airdrop.

We're closely watching the market, and our goal is to launch the token at the right time and in the right place, when the foundation is solid enough. We want the XDAO token to have real utility and lasting value, not just ride a wave of hype.

We keep building regardless of market conditions. Thank you for your trust. The new capabilities of XDAO will surprise you. We're not done — not even close. Thank you for being with us at the forefront of DAO and AI innovation.

🤩 XDAO — Create and Manage DAOs in Telegram

XDAO is an infrastructure for digital autonomous organizations on TON. Create a DAO, bring your community on board, and make decisions together — all without leaving Telegram.

🌉 Crowdfunding is the core of what we do. Any DAO can launch a campaign and collect contributions by issuing LP tokens — each token reflects a participant's level of involvement. Contributions in TON and stablecoins, soft/hard caps, whitelists for private rounds, multi-round campaigns, automatic refunds if the goal isn't met.

Over $55M has already been collected through XDAO on EVM chains. Now the same engine — rebuilt and expanded — is live on TON.

📼 We've added a video walkthrough to the step-by-step Crowdfunding Setup Guide. Watch it, follow along, launch your first campaign in minutes.

⚠️ This post is for informational purposes only and does not constitute financial, investment, or legal advice. Participation in DAOs and crowdfunding campaigns involves risks, including the potential loss of funds. Always do your own research (DYOR) before making any decisions.

XDAO Crowdfunding: How It Works 💸

The most anticipated and powerful tool in the XDAO ecosystem is in the final stages. We aren’t just adding a fundraising feature — we are implementing professional investment architecture directly within Telegram. This is a tool for long-term builders, not "one-day" projects.

How it changes the game:

⚙️ Automated Mechanics. The fundraising process is fully automated. General Partners (GPs) set round parameters via Consensus, and the smart contract handles the rest — from processing payments to minting LP (Liquidity Partner) tokens.

💰 LP Tokens = Real Ownership. Investors contribute funds with a single tap and receive liquid LP tokens. This is on-chain proof of their contribution and rights to future profits. Everything is transparent and secured on the blockchain.

🛡️ Rock-Solid Protection. Our smart contracts guarantee security for both parties. If the Soft Cap isn't reached, investors get their money back automatically. No "stuck" funds and no manual refunds.

⚡ Flexible Investment Rounds. Launch as many rounds as your project needs. Private sales for "whales" or public sales for the community — each with different entry prices and conditions. One DAO — infinite possibilities.

🏛️ Funds Under Consensus Control. No personal wallets. All investments flow directly into the DAO treasury via a dedicated sub-account for each project. Any movement of funds requires GP voting and approval.

We are finishing the final tests and getting everything ready for launch. The start is just around the corner 🏁

The First DAO for a Rice Paddy — in Japan 🌾

In May 2024, something unusual happened in the small town of Kofu: farmers, doctors, and entrepreneurs came together to form a DAO — to collectively manage a rice paddy.

The idea belongs to Dr. Shin Kasahara. He believes that human health begins with the soil. That's why the 20 DAO members don't just buy rice in advance — they vote on when to weed, which natural fertilizers to use, and even submit health tests to track how working the land affects their bodies.

For farmers, it's a lifeline: stable income instead of gambling on market prices. For Japan, with its aging rural population, it's a survival experiment.

No tokens for the sake of hype. Just 2,500 m² of land, collective decision-making, and pesticide-free rice.

The project caught attention at the national level: Minister for Economic Revitalization Yoshitaka Shindo — the architect of the "Digital Garden City Nation" program aimed at digitizing rural Japan — sent a video address to the rice planting ceremony, calling the DAO a model for the entire country.

One member has already moved to Kofu — to help the cooperative on the ground.

Sometimes the future smells like fresh soil... and rice 🍚

DAOs are moving beyond DeFi and growing faster than any other non-financial segment 🚀

According to fresh data, non-financial DAOs (media, gaming, content, creative projects) grew by +25% over the past year

Why this segment is booming:

🎮 Gaming. Players can actually own a piece of the project, vote on updates, and even share revenue — instead of being “just users”
▶ Media & content. Teams use DAOs to produce content together, manage the project collectively, and distribute earnings transparently
🎨 Creative work. Artists, writers, and fans team up to create characters and entire universes — with IP owned collectively by the participants

Before: DAO = DeFi and protocols
Now: DAO = games, series, comics, content, and collective IP

Читать полностью…

The total value of assets held across all DAOs has reached a new high of $24.5 billion 💰

Fresh data for 2025:

⚡the average treasury size per DAO is ~$1.2M
⚡top DAOs like Uniswap, Aave, Maker, Arbitrum, and Optimism each manage $500M+, holding the majority of the market
⚡the sector has grown +30% over the past year

For comparison:

🔹in 2023, DAOs held only $10–12B
🔹in 2021, around $6B

That’s nearly a 4x increase in just a few years!

DAOs are accumulating capital faster than any other Web3 organizational model — and today’s numbers look more like a starting point than a peak 📈

Anime in the hands of the community: what Japan DAO is doing 🎌

Japan has launched an interesting platform where artists, writers, and fans come together to create new anime projects collectively 🤨

The mechanics are simple:
someone brings an idea for a character or universe → the community votes → the DAO allocates a budget and assembles a team → the IP is distributed among those who actually contributed

Professional artists and writers are already involved, and fans influence the process not just through voting but by choosing the direction: which characters should go into production, which universe to develop, what merch to release, and how the project should evolve. All of this is tied to holding tokens of specific projects 💃

IP (Intellectual Property) means the rights to characters, worlds, merchandise, and licensing. Usually, studios keep full control of these rights, and creators receive only a tiny share of the profits

In Japan DAO, the IP belongs to the creators and the community that supported the launch, so a significant share of the profits goes not to the studio but to the people who actually contributed 🤩

🚨 Important

The official XDAO token has not been launched yet. Any tokens with similar names ($XDAO, $DAO, etc.) currently appearing on third-party platforms are fake and scams

We haven’t launched or listed our token on Blum or any other platform 🙅‍♂️

Also, be careful — do not connect your wallets to suspicious websites!

Post on X by TON’s Global Community Lead:

“Over $150M worth of Telegram Gifts are already circulating — and the number keeps growing every day.

For comparison: the CS2 skin market is valued at $5.5B, but Telegram has over 1 billion users”

Right now, two ideas are being discussed in the community. The first — DAOs that own collections of rare Telegram gifts like Plush Pepe and manage them as digital assets. The second — investing in “gift indexes”, where a DAO can buy a share of a basket of valuable, tradable gifts without owning each one directly (basically an on-chain ETF) 🎁

What do you think — should we experiment with something like this in XDAO? Would it genuinely bring value to our users, or are gifts just another short-lived trend?

SOLANA WALLET COLLECTION — AN IMPORTANT STEP TOWARD THE AIRDROP

Hello everyone, dear community! Today we are launching the collection of Solana wallets. So that the airdrop can reach you, we need to know the address of your NON-CUSTODIAL Solana wallet.

📲 How to link a wallet
👀 open our official mini app @xdao_ton_bot
👀 in the bottom panel, find the Airdrop section
👀 connect your TON wallet
👀 paste the address of your non-custodial Solana wallet
👀 press Sign with TON & add wallet and sign in your wallet

🔄 You can change the address. If you decide to switch your Solana address, no problem — it can be changed at any time by pressing the Change wallet button.

🔑 Have you lost access to your TON wallet? We have heard you and added the option to submit a recovery request and link a new wallet by Telegram ID, directly in the bot.

🪩 About the TGE, listing and tokenomics. We will tell you all of this ourselves, closer to the listing. Until then, treat any figures, dates and 'insider' claims from outside as speculation and fakes — they rest on the empty guesses of outsiders and can easily mislead you. Trust only the official XDAO channels and ignore the rest.

Thank you for being with us. The most interesting part is still ahead 💙

XDAO SECURITY IN THE AGE OF AI: AUDIT BY ANTHROPIC AND TRAIL OF BITS 🛡

You've probably heard of Mythos — Anthropic's new AI model. It is so powerful that it uncovers vulnerabilities in systems that were considered impenetrable for decades and went unnoticed by human experts. Due to its unprecedented capabilities, Mythos is not yet available to the public — Anthropic has restricted access to Claude Mythos Preview under Project Glasswing, granting it to a limited number of major technology, financial, and infrastructure organizations (including Microsoft, Google, Apple, Amazon, and CrowdStrike) for cybersecurity purposes.

For example, Mythos identified logic errors in cryptographic library implementations that had been used in banking systems and secure communication protocols since the 1990s. What thousands of cybersecurity professionals considered the gold standard of reliability for 30 years, AI deconstructed in a matter of hours.

Anthropic's technology was also applied to XDAO's infrastructure. Through the security audit firm Trail of Bits, we received a report: Mythos discovered a vulnerability in one of the auxiliary modules on EVM blockchains that could theoretically allow minting of DAO LP tokens. Our team promptly reviewed the report and patched the bug immediately upon confirmation by Trail of Bits specialists.

What the community should know

XDAO's core smart contracts also underwent deep scanning by the AI model. No vulnerabilities were found in the system's core. This once again confirms that the protocol's architecture is soundly designed, and that user funds have always been and remain fully secure.

We thank the Anthropic and Trail of Bits teams for their assistance with the audit and their invaluable contribution to strengthening XDAO's security 🤝❤️ In the world of decentralized finance, AI technologies are becoming our greatest ally.

YOU ASKED — WE'RE BUILDING

Two new modules for XDAO crowdfunding are now in active development.

Mass Payout is one of the key challenges for any DAO after a successful crowdfunding campaign. Mass Payout solves it head-on: the DAO distributes funds to all LP holders proportionally to their share. Once a month, once a year — as many rounds as needed 💸

Vesting is the feature you've been asking for. Vesting allows LP tokens to be released not all at once when the campaign ends, but gradually — with a delay and linear unlock. This is a game changer for founders: instead of instant token distribution, a structured schedule that retains participants and builds contributor confidence.

Both modules are independent of each other, installed through a DAO vote, and have zero impact on existing campaigns.

Stay tuned 👀

💵 Your DAO Can Now Raise Capital Directly Through Telegram — We're Launching the Crowdfunding Module on TON

XDAO is the first platform to deliver a full-featured crowdfunding tool for DAOs. Until today, nothing like this existed in the TON ecosystem.

🧩 How it works. Every contributor receives LP tokens upon participation — these tokens represent their share in the campaign. Payouts are then distributed through the same tokens, proportionally to each person's contribution. Fundraising for business ideas, investments, charitable initiatives — everything is transparent, built on smart contracts, with real-time notifications. This is where the true power of decentralized autonomous organizations comes to life — collective financial management by the community.

💲 Battle-tested. The same module on EVM chains (Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, Arbitrum, and others) has already proven its worth — communities across our DAOs have raised over $55M through crowdfunding. It's one of the most popular tools on the platform, and now it's available on TON.

We didn't just port the module — we significantly expanded its functionality. We poured in all the experience and every piece of feedback we've gathered from our users over the years. Capital management in the TON and Telegram ecosystem is entering a whole new level, and it matters to us that you'll be the first to experience it.

👨‍💻 Months of development and testing — here's what we've built for you:

👀 Raise funds by selling LP (Liquidity Provider) tokens — a new token type that reflects each participant's share of contribution
👀 Contributions accepted in TON and stablecoins (USDT, USDe)
👀 Flexible campaign configuration — with optional delayed start and end dates
👀 Soft cap and hard cap, plus entry thresholds and per-participant limits
👀 Automatic LP token minting proportional to contribution
👀 Sub-Wallets — isolated wallets for each campaign
👀 Whitelist mode for private rounds
👀 Management fee — GP token holders receive their reward in LP tokens credited to the DAO's balance, aligning the interests of managers with those of participants
👀 Multi-round fundraising on a single LP contract (Round 1 → Round 2 → Round 3…)
👀 100% refund if the soft cap isn't reached — with zero platform fees
👀 Source of Funds Certificate — a PDF document with the full campaign history
👀 Notifications via bot directly in your Telegram community chat
👀 All decisions are made through GP voting — nothing happens without consensus

📂 Getting started. We've prepared a convenient Crowdfunding Setup Guide right inside the app — it will walk you through every step. You can find it on any DAO's page, as well as on the app's home screen.

Full details are in the documentation attached to this post. Everything is laid out clearly and step by step.

💸 Your feedback matters. We're running at full capacity right now — try it out, test it, reach out to us. Every piece of feedback genuinely helps us make the product better.

Stay tuned — we'll be breaking down each element of the module in dedicated posts coming soon.

You know we're building something real and useful. And of course, you'll see it for yourselves 👀🔥

⚠️ Disclaimer. Always do your own research (DYOR) before participating in any crowdfunding campaign. By contributing funds, you are entrusting them to GP holders — the people who manage the DAO's treasury through multisig. Before contributing, make sure you know and trust these individuals. XDAO provides the infrastructure but bears no responsibility for the decisions of individual DAOs and their managers.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, XDAO fam! 🎄✨

2025 is coming to an end, and we want to be honest with you. This year, together we launched the first DAO ecosystem on Telegram. The potential of this step is huge — and it's only beginning to unfold.

What's definitely coming soon:
🔹 Crowdfunding module. The ability to raise funds for your DAOs through a dedicated module. The feature everyone's been waiting for. It's on its way and will launch very soon.
🔹 New blockchains. We're already live on 40+ networks — and that's not the limit. More integrations are coming that will open XDAO to even more users.
🔹 New markets. The world beyond crypto is starting to understand the power of DAOs. We're preparing our product to become a bridge between Web3 and traditional business.

Now, about the token.
Yes, we know. You're waiting. We read every comment, every message — we hear you and deeply appreciate your loyalty, dear Community.

The team is closely monitoring the market and analyzing the global landscape. We want to choose the moment that brings maximum value to the entire community and the project. Thank you for your understanding and support.

Our goal is to make 2026 a breakthrough year for XDAO and for everyone who believes in the project.

What do we need from you?
Believe. Stay with us. The listing will happen. Thank you for being here. Thank you for believing in XDAO. The feeling is mutual 💙

Happy 2026! 🥂

AI companions are leveling up 🤔

Treasure DAO has introduced their AI agent $MIO, which already plays Monopoly and Minecraft alongside real players…
Next up is CS:GO, where the agent won’t just play — it will trade items online and tap into real Web2 economies

The key idea is cross-platform AI companions that can be linked to a DAO and launched across different games. These agents will be able to farm resources, collect loot, complete tasks, and even generate value for their owners 🎮

Looks like “game bots” are turning into full-fledged digital assets that work for you — and are owned on-chain by a DAO

DAO mess up too sometimes 😬

A recent breakdown from DAO Times highlights an uncomfortable truth: many DAOs lose funds not because of hacks, but because of plain human sloppiness. Opaque grants, weak treasury oversight, and the absence of clear rules all turn into budget leaks, lost trust, and governance chaos 💥

Typical scenarios:
— grants handed out “to friends,” with no clear criteria
— zero reporting, or no one actually reviewing it
— treasury scattered across random wallets with questionable access
— votes happen formally, but no one executes the decisions

In the end, the DAO technically exists, but money disappears into the void, and contributors burn out and quietly walk away 🙅‍♂

A solid legal foundation, clear rules, written agreements and transparency aren’t bureaucracy — they’re the only way to protect the treasury and maintain community trust. Especially when a DAO grows and the stakes go from $100 to millions $$$

DAO gets its first license in a real jurisdiction 📁

The Bermuda Monetary Authority has issued an official license to DerivaDEX — a derivatives platform fully governed by a DAO. This is the first license of its kind in the world

What this means in simple terms:

⚪a government regulator has recognized a structure where decisions are made not by a CEO or a company, but by a community of tokenholders
⚪DAOs have been given a green light to operate legally in an offshore jurisdiction
⚪projects like this can now bring in institutional players, work with big companies, and not worry that “the regulator will shut everything down”

And one important clarification to avoid confusion: we’ve had DAO LLCs in Wyoming and the Marshall Islands, but in those cases the licenses were issued to legal entities created around a DAO. Here, the licensed entity is the platform directly governed by the DAO, without turning it into a traditional company. This is a fundamentally different level of recognition 👍

In essence, this is the first case where a DAO-governed model has been tested against real-world legal standards — and officially approved. Not an experiment, but a fully recognized business format 😎

MetaDAO said “no” to venture funds 🚫

MetaDAO is a project on Solana that builds a network of prediction markets where users bet on outcomes and earn rewards if they’re right. The entire governance process happens through a DAO

Recently, two venture funds approached the project with an offer to invest $6 million in $META tokens — but with a 30–40% discount and a stake large enough to influence decisions within the DAO 🤷🏻‍♂️

At first glance, a standard VC deal. But within the community, a discussion started: why sell tokens below market value and give up part of the control to outside players if the project is growing steadily without it?

Most agreed that such terms created more imbalance than benefit 👎

In the end, the DAO voted to reject the offer. A few days later, $META rose about 16%, and the case quickly spread across crypto Twitter as an example of how a decentralized community can preserve a project’s independence — even when millions are on the table 😎

Liberland: a country as a DAO 🤨

Not only cities can be governed through DAOs. Between Croatia and Serbia lies a tiny piece of land — just 7 square kilometers. In 2015, Czech libertarian Vít Jedlička declared it an independent state called Liberland 🧠

At first, it seemed like a joke. But over time, the project gained structure, citizens (now over 700,000 online) and even its own crypto-economy. Today, Liberland is being built as a decentralized republic, where governance and the economy are powered by blockchain

Every citizen can take part in voting, while the treasury and taxes are transparent and recorded in smart contracts. The goal is to move state processes into a DAO format, creating a “digital micro-nation” without bureaucracy 🖥

Liberland already has its own constitution, emblem, and “diplomats” around the world. Let’s see how this experiment unfolds 🕵‍♂

The Legal Module in XDAO is now live! ⚖️

No lawyers needed anymore. Record agreements, make deals, and sign contracts — all for free

XDAO’s global mission is to give every person on the planet the ability to create legally binding agreements without lawyers, in a simple and accessible form. We believe our technology makes the world a better place 🌎

All on-chain DAOs can now operate officially: create charters, sign legally binding agreements, and record commitments between members — all directly inside your organization’s chat! 💬

The update introduces three key features:

🤝 Private Deals — private agreements between DAO members, visible only to the participants who signed them. The deal is executed only after all parties sign, while non-participants see only the fact of its existence, not its content
📄 Agreements — record any internal arrangements within the DAO by consensus (for example: shares, contributions, partnership terms, or token distribution)
🏛 Charter — generate and sign your DAO’s charter, giving all agreements full legal force

Main commands to use the new features:

/create_charter — creates your DAO charter (must be sent by the chat owner of your organization)

/dao — launches the creation of an Agreement (if used in your DAO chat) or a Private Deal (if sent in a private chat with the XDAO bot)

/setup_chat_link — links your chat to your DAO

💡 Full instructions and feature descriptions are already available in the app. Check the “Legal” section

NFT beer? Why not 🍺

In August 2022, BarrelDAO, a decentralized brewery (yes, really), released a collection of 333 NFTs, each serving as a “ticket” for a limited-edition Solana Summer Shandy beer case. Price — 1.35 SOL (around $45). Everything sold out instantly!

Each NFT granted the holder the right to redeem a 16-pack of beer with lemonade, featuring designs by artist Mark Lottier. The cans showcased iconic characters from Solana’s NFT scene — Degenerate Ape Academy, Okay Bears, Thugbirdz, DeGods, Solana Monkey Business, Catalina Whale Mixer, Cets on Creck, and even artwork by John Lê

Here’s the twist: BarrelDAO actually owned some of these NFTs and licensed the rest from collectors to use in the artwork. On the secondary market, these “tickets” quickly shot up in price — trading on Magic Eden for 2.69 SOL (around $90 at the time)

No, it wasn’t a Solana Labs initiative — just a pure DAO experiment that proved how community projects can merge memes, NFTs, and real-world products
