- Shiba Inuโs partner, The Welly Friends collection, gets a complete makeover.
- Artists backed by titans such as Pixar and Supercell gave their personal touch.
- SHIB Army members mint their refurbished 3D hand-drawn profile pictures.
The horizon of Shiba Inuโs extensive ecosystem is expanding with a full-on refurbishment of The Welly Friends NFT collection. Initially launched in 2022, this digital collectible set aimed to provide the Shiba Inu community with a digital identity via profile pictures and bolster the development of Wellyโs physical restaurants.
Shiba Inu Reunites with Welly Friends for a Tasty Cause
The very first Wellyโs restaurant opened in 2021 in Naples, Italy, uniting tasty chicken admirers with cryptocurrency aficionados and dog lovers. Three years later, The Welly Friends NFT collection returns with meticulously elevated items from the original collection. A new wave of talented digital artists has taken it upon themselves to reimagine each of the 4,273 Welly Friends.
The intricate refurbishment of The Welly Friends digital collectibles brings a flurry of new visual details, hand-drawn art, and newly tailored rich narratives accompanying the digital characters. The upgraded Welly Friends NFTs give a sense of belonging to SHIB custodians and open doors for real-life perks at Wellyโs chicken shop in Naples, Italy.
SHIB x Welly Friends: Where Innovation Meets Appetite
Partnering with a brick-and-mortar business, SHIB Token adds another strong case for blockchainโs real-life adoption. Wellyโs inaugural restaurant in Naples, Italy, was designed by prominent development studio โMasquespacio,โ while the Italian-based burger shop has become a landmark place for chicken lovers around the area.
Serving chicken and bacon wraps, fries, classic chicken burgers, and sandwiches, Wellyโs restaurantโs popularity has rapidly increased since promising chef Flynn McGarry joined the team, providing authentic recipes for the community. โEvery pixel tells a unique story, and every Welly Friend represents a lasting bond,โ declares Shiba Inuโs official X account.
As the story unfolds, the Shiba Inu Ecosystemโs main token slipped by 3.3% to change hands at $0.00002472, according to independent price aggregator CoinGecko. Meanwhile, the revamped Wellyโs Friends NFT collection is in the spotlight on OpenSea.
SHIB Army member ProfessorSHIB acquired Welly Friend #294 three hours ago at 0.095 Ether (ETH), equaling $289 at stamped transaction time. Showing off their new Welly Friends on X, SHIB Army members were keen to know about Welly restaurantโs global expansion plans.
On the Flipside
- A year ago, Wellyโs restaurant management team disclosed plans to expand further by opening another restaurant in Reggio Emilia, Italy.
- However, new Wellyโs burger shops are yet to open. Nevertheless, the currently active Naples restaurant does online delivery around the area.
Why This Matters
Partnerships with brick-and-mortar ventures solidify the community, as the perks gained from digital collectibles are transitioned into real-life activities, promotions, and discounts.
