Issue 10 is here and we have a pretty major announcement. We're not quite full-blown press release status yet so you're getting an early heads-up on how we're about to become the world's first Decentralized Streetwear brand. All of us at Official® are firm believers that we can all make the world a better place through decentralization. We can sit around and wait for things to change or we can just begin doing it ourselves. Let's dive right in.
A NEW KIND OF MARKET IS ON IT'S WAY...
Ok, we’re going to let a little bit of the cat out of the bag in this issue. For a few months now the team here at Official® has been working on building a decentralized NFT platform. Not just some marketplace where we sell you gifs for 1.5 ETH. We’re creating a suite of utilities for NFTs that can be utilized for art, events, experiences, certificates of authenticity, recurring revenue structures, and more. We’ll introduce you to our NFT platform with our own NFTs that offer reveal codes to our online store, discounts, gifts, and surprises. We can’t wait! Oh, what’s the fuel for this platform you might ask? $OFCL Token.
We look forward to updating you weekly on our progress and launch dates. We will have a FAIR Pre Sale of the $OFCL Token in July so gear up for 🚀
KEITH HARING POLAROID
The camera is cool but I’m so glad they did the Keith Haring film. Pretty epic collab. This and the Diplo Crocs whilst taking photos of your honey poolside at the Palm Springs Ace is goals.
This whole Mindstyle collection from Futura 2000 is so underrated it's not even funny. Tiger camo everything, accessories, and my personal favorite; the Men Pointman Windbreaker. Futura has been such a long-lasting creator from Style Wars, Subware, UNKLE, and PSY and for the younger generation, it’s worth googling him as he’s paved the way for so many artists in both graffiti and streetwear.
El Salvador making Bitcoin legal tender is amazing news. However, It started on Bitcoin Beach. Bitcoin Beach is a community in El Salvador along the “Crypto Coast.” I know this sounds like a fantasy but it really exists. The Bitcoin Beach team had the mission of building up the local community by onramping local businesses with Bitcoin wallets and accepting bitcoin. This was the micro model for what will now be a whole country accepting Bitcoin as legal tender. Bitcoin Beach still exists to this day empowering the underbanked and unbanked, taking away the power from the governments and financial institutions. Level up, visit Bitcoin Beach!
