NFT as a new business models
A little while ago I didn’t know what they were about and now it’s the only thing that is talked about. NFT’s have gone from being a talking point exclusive to the world of art and collecting, but these digital assets have found a place in restoration. VCR Group , a company dedicated to creating concepts, culinary experiences and food products in physical and digital spaces, announced that next year it will open the FlyFish Club , the world’s first NFT restaurant.
The FlyFish Club is a seafood-inspired concept founded by serial entrepreneur Gary Vaynerchuk and restaurateurs David Rodolitz, Founding Partner and CEO of Empellon Restaurant Group, Culinary Director Josh Capon of Lure Fishbar and Executive Vice President of Operations Conor Hanlon. This group of visionaries impresses in many ways. The innovative restaurant will be 10,000 square feet in an iconic New York City location.
If you are wondering how you can access, then the answer is in the blockchain. Yes, to obtain a membership you must buy with non-fungible tokens, and the best thing is that being an owner can generate new business opportunities in a short time. If you have any doubts, I can tell you that according to the Cointelegraph Research report, NFTs are currently a business that leaves an economic footprint of more than $17.7 billion dollars worldwide.
Which brings me to the two big factors that caught my attention from the Non Fungible world. The first thing is the benefit as a member of renting your token monthly to other people, with leasing, turning each token into a kind of semi-liquid asset that would allow you to obtain recurring income in the short term. In other words, if you buy a Flyfish token to say something for $3,000 and rent it to your colleagues who are passionate about gastronomy for $800, you would be making an investment with interesting long-term potential.
Second, apart from the progressive aspect that surrounds the gastronomic club, I found the minimized risk involved in bringing this new business model to life interesting. This line of financing allows creators to obtain the money to invest without having to take a penny out of their pocket, giving rise to a revolution in the world of restoration.
As David Rodolitz, co-founder and CEO of VCR Group mentioned, “FlyFish Club creates a whole new revenue model, it gives people control and ownership over something that has never been done before in a kind of private club and I think it allows us to add more value to everyone involved in our system. Our financial situation will be healthier, so our projects will be more sustainable and scalable over time.”
I say goodbye with the most recent sales data , Flyfish Club NFT was sold 33 times in the last 7 days. Total Flyfish Club sales volume was $468.59k. The average price of a Flyfish Club NFT was $14.2k (started at $7,900). Currently, there are 1,306 Flyfish Club owners, holding a total supply of 3,035 tokens.
The future reached us, do you dare to be part of it?
The Importance of Building Lasting Connections: An Essential Strategy for Business Growth
Building authentic and strategic connections becomes essential for entrepreneurs with long-term projections. Beyond traditional professional encounters, this process is about intentional, ongoing practice that opens doors to new knowledge, business insights, and exclusive opportunities. Genuine connections with professionals across various sectors not only enrich business vision but also strengthen resilience and adaptability to market changes—crucial aspects for sustained success. In this context, the right connections can become an invaluable source of ideas, innovations, and resources that fuel mutual growth. Moreover, strengthening a professional network requires identifying those with whom to collaborate purposefully along the business journey. This means going beyond immediate contacts to include sectors or profiles that, while different, can be strategically complementary. For many entrepreneurs, this diversity in connections broadens business reach, offers a more holistic perspective, and facilitates access to opportunities that might otherwise be out of reach. Maintaining and adding value to each relationship over time is key to building this network sustainably. The focus is not only on what others can offer but also on how one can contribute meaningfully whether through active listening, supporting shared initiatives, joint projects, or exchanging specialized knowledge.
Success Stories: Restaurants as Tourism Catalysts
Attracting large audiences and driving tourism is a challenge, especially for those aiming to position a country or region as an appealing destination. Today, however, the influence of brands and figures on social media has fueled trends that draw tourists seeking unique experiences, from iconic dishes to haute cuisine concepts. A prime example of this phenomenon is Crumbl Cookies, a franchise that has harnessed TikTok’s viral power to become a coveted brand. These cookies, seen as authentic gifts, have not only gone viral but have also evolved into a high-demand, high-value franchise. Additionally, many exclusive restaurants and products from specific countries create even more allure, motivating tourists to travel specifically for an authentic experience. This trend is notable among millennials: according to a survey by App Marketplace News, 53% of respondents have visited or ordered from a restaurant they discovered on TikTok. Certain tourist destinations are also distinguished by their culinary specialties, which, in addition to generating cultural identity, can drive large-scale tourism. Mexico with its tacos, Japan with sushi and ramen, Italy with gelato, pizza, and pasta, and Peru with ceviche represent dishes that cross borders, while various restaurants in these countries have boosted the appeal of visiting these places.
