#149: Supporting anime culture growth through NFT ‘100 Limited Edition Otaku Coins’ Release! 3 Lucky Otaku Coin account holders have the chance to win!
Finally! Otaku Coin will release a ‘Blockchain’
In collaboration with Crypto Games Inc, the Otaku Coin Association has confirmed that we will sell ‘100 Limited Edition Otaku Coins’, made utilizing NFT blockchain technology.
Otaku Coin Association continues to follow its mission of contributing to the preservation and growth of anime culture around the world using blockchain technology. In this project, Otaku Coin has taken the initiative in utilizing the newest NFT technology. The aim of the project is to experiment and prove to the world that NFT can be smoothly incorporated into the industry and community by identifying the possible risks, costs, concerns, merits, and demerits involved.
By releasing the knowledge and experience gained from this experiment to the anime industry, creators, and fans on the Otaku Coin Official blog, we hope to support the development of the industry by creating more awareness of anime culture around the world.
We believe that enthusiastic anime fans around the world are as big of a supporter of anime culture as we are. Therefore, the Otaku Coin Association has turned our logo © into NFT and created 100 different color versions for anime fans to be used as a symbol of how we want to support the anime industry and community and our mission of spreading the love of anime globally together. Only 100 will be created, therefore, each unique colored coin is a limited edition ‘one-and-only’ item.

Recently, NFT is gaining exposure for providing groups of fans with a method to buy and sell digital items on the secondary market while automatically returning royalties to the original owner/company. With this technology, anime fans around the world are able to financially support their favorite creators through the payment of royalties when buying and selling digital items on the internet secondary market.
Fans can now participate in supporting their favorite creators on multiple levels through purchasing, experiencing, then reselling digital items from anywhere in the world.
The Otaku Coin Association will release the knowledge and experience gained from this experiment to the anime industry, creators, and fans on the Otaku Coin Official blog.
From here, we will explain more about the present campaign.
In order to make sure that our feelings of gratitude reach our users who have continually supported Otaku Coin and our projects, we have set the lottery to require 1,000 Otaku Coins to enter. If the lottery is completely free, there is a high chance that Otaku Coin will get flooded with people who just learned about us, in turn, hindering us from focusing on our dedicated supporters. We apologize in advance for any inconveniences caused and we hope you understand.
To enter into the lottery, please enter using the banner on the home screen of the Otaku Coin Official App. We look forward to being able to present our dedicated supporters with the Limited Edition Otaku Coin numbers #98, #99, and #100. We hope that you also trade it on the secondary market and experience the royalty return process!

■ What is NFT Blockchain Technology?
NFT is the latest cryptocurrency, a unique non-fungible token that is completely unique and referred to as a “one-and-only unique piece of data in the whole world”. Through using blockchain technology, it is now possible to create digital data that can not be copied and the owner can freely distribute it on the secondary market.
Currently, NFT is mainly used in blockchain games and crypto art. In particular, it has gone viral in the overseas art industry, grossing tens of millions of Japanese yen in sales at the start of 2021. An example of a viral topic around the world includes the artist named ‘Beeple’, who recently sold NFT for 69 million dollars at Christie’s, an auction house with more than 250 years of history.
We predict that NFT will become a prominent cryptocurrency in the future with the increase in the importance of the digitalization of assets. With this new project, we believe it is an exciting new step forward for both Japanese anime and the NFT community.
