Popular beer brand Budweiser and Ethereum-based NFT horse racing game Zed run have come together for a marketing and sponsorship deal to launch a Budweiser-themed race track in Zed Run. The two will release Budweiser NFT passes, racing prize pools starting at $45,000, and three tiers of airdropped Clydesdale themed NFT skins, which can be used in Zed Run.
This move by Budweiser adds to its latest spending worth $120,000 on NFT fan art and the beer.eth domain name purchased from Ethereum Name Service in August 2021.
Zed Run’s racing horse NFTs initially cost $30 to $80 to mint but have since become one of the most sought after assets, trading for thousands of dollars on secondary markets. In April 2021, a user sold a single racehorse NFT for a whopping $125,000.
The Budweiser Clydesdales are a popular group of horses Budweiser uses for promos and commercials. The beer company is a major sponsor of horse racing events that happen worldwide.
A total of 2,500 Budweiser Pass NFTs will be up for sale for a maximum of 24 hours this Friday. These passes can be bought by any user aged 21 and above. The NFT costs $225 per piece and the gas fees.
