Aside from rewarding you with $HIGH vouchers, FOMO Duck has one hell of a backstory.

If you’ve come across Highstreet on social media, chances are you’ve already met FOMO Duck — the sunshine-colored, upbeat mascot of our commerce-centric metaverse.

The long-awaited FOMO Duck NFT will finally arrive on September 17, 2021. Highstreet will be releasing 250 each day to be minted and run for it for 30 days. To understand what makes FOMO Duck special and how you can reap rewards, read on!

A Better Marketplace Thanks to FOMO Duck
FOMO Duck doesn’t just brighten up our virtual world with a dash of color and personality. He is also the brains behind one of Highstreet’s innovations for a fairer, friendlier marketplace: StreetSmart Bonding Curves. Why would a duck want to redefine the rules for selling limited-edition products on a decentralized exchange? If only you knew his story:

“Fomolius Duck is part of a mysterious tribe of ducks that populated Highstreet World long before the first Great Crossing Over ever happened. Thousands of years ago a wormhole opened up where Highstreet Market currently stands, and products from the real world started falling through the portal and into the digital world. It wasn’t long before human explorers also started crossing over, and soon the area surrounding the wormhole became a crucial trading center between humans and the intelligent duck natives that resided there. As such these ducks developed a keen sense of trade and opportunity, and overtime evolved to become one of the most affluent traders in the Highstreet Metaverse. Today Freshmints like Fomolius can be seen either representing brands from the real world, or inventing new forms of commerce like the StreetSmart Bonding Curve that Highstreet Market uses.”

StreetSmart’s automated price adjustment process gives every user the fairest price at any moment in time. The system also steps in whenever a user needs a counterparty, making every transaction instantaneous. Most importantly, the use of product tokens in StreetSmart means you never need to worry about getting ripped off or receiving fake goods.

Time to Get Your (FOMO) Ducks in a Row
For newcomers to the Highstreet metaverse, getting a FOMO Duck is your introduction to a new frontier for gaming, entertainment, crypto, and more.
