What are they like?
It’s worth mentioning that the NFT ‘Papa 1984’ bag mimics the style of a thermal pizza bag, but the ones that are used as a wallet, a fashion accessory. It has an adjustable crossbody strap with a repeating logo printed on it. Besides, this NFT design is available in yellow, red and green.
On the other hand, the bags NFT ‘Papa Cheese Melt y ‘Daddy Day’ are backpack style and were inspired by the hip-hop street art graffiti used at the time that Papa John’s opened its doors to the public for the first time in 1984.
Tom Hoff, one of the designers of the bags, said of this one NFT:
“Los NFT se han disparado tan rápidamente y, sin embargo, muchas personas todavía no están seguras de cómo recolectarlos o creen que vienen con grandes etiquetas de precio. Es genial ver una marca como Papa John’s ayudando a que los NFT sean más convencionales y que dos de mis diseños permitan que personas de todo el mundo los disfruten en el metaverso”.
Challenging Authority
However, with all this comes a drawback. Papa John’s was one of seven companies that the UK put the brakes on crypto advertising in December last year. However, it seems to be ignoring the warning with this campaign.
La cadena de comida lanzó el año pasado una promoción en la que los clientes could win £10 (USD $13) on bitcoins when they spent more than £30 (USD $39). This campaign came into conflict with the UK Advertising Standards Authority, which deemed it “irresponsible”. since, in his opinion, “took advantage of consumers’ inexperience or credulity and trivialized cryptocurrency cryptocurrencies are digital currencies that use cryptographic technologies to secure their operation. investing.” Subsequently, the pizza chain removed the ads from the campaign.
It remains to be seen what happens with this new campaign that is not associated with the purchase of any product.
