TT DAO Community
Thirsty Thirsty is the hub for exciting and regenerative food, wine, and land experiences in web3. We are here to regenerate Mother Earth and celebrate Indigenous wisdom, using food and wine to story tell. Our members get treated like friends & family at top restaurants and wineries across the globe that source or farm regeneratively. Members luxuriate in the most delicious products and simultaneously support small-scale agriculture and the Indigenous communities that carry profound knowledge. Empowering Indigenous communities and recentering ancestral agriculture is our strongest tool to restabilize our planet. Food, wine, and travel are joy. Ancestral stories are the medicine.
Call to Adventure
Thirsty Thirsty DAO members will enjoy unique dining experiences featuring the best restaurants that are committed to sourcing the best products. The best products are grown by small-scale growers and winemakers who work organically or biodynamically, to strengthen their land’s biodiversity. Members transform into VIPs at collaborating restaurants and wineries, giving them access to a myriad of bespoke offerings. TT Community will also receive exclusive access to special events (like harvest celebrations, industry-only salons, allocated seasonal releases, etc…) and Fine Wine NFTs that come with a real wine bottle of collector, regeneratively farmed natural wine.
Our NFT ecosystem offers seasonal two-tier releases. Tier one valued at $1034.30, provides membership and access to our restaurant partners and a unique bottle of wine exclusive to Thirsty Thirsty. Tier two valued at $275.81 provides all the value of tier one without the wine. Although the wine utility of our NFT’s are single use, the actual NFT represents lasting membership in Thirsty Thirsty. However each NFT drop is an opportunity for our wine collectors to build their collection of both wines and unique NFTs. In addition to our tiered NFT membership, Thirsty Thirsty DAO offers “experiences”. Each experience, individually priced and associated with its own NFT drop.
We choose vibrant, impactful, heart-opening dining memories that root us back to nature even in the busiest cities in the world. Experiences of pleasure can also protect experiences of the earth through a circular economy of shared values. As we take from the land, we must give back to it and those that work to protect it.
We see a link between how our food and wine choices impact soil health and carbon sequestration. We also believe the future of our planet depends on centering and celebrating with the Indigenous communities that protect 80% of the earth’s biodiversity. We deeply value reciprocity. Thirsty Thirsty nourishes a community of food and beverages lovers that in turn see the value in supporting Indigenous and Black communities that stand at the frontlines of climate crises. Harmony’s commitment to energy efficiency and environmentally friendly practices as a blockchain reinforce this value. One of many reasons we would like to be a part of the harmony ecosystem.
Success for Thirsty Thirsty is layered and dynamic.
First and foremost, we are passionate about creating new revenue streams and access for farmers, winemakers, and Indigenous communities using blockchain technology. We seek to bring them into the Thirsty Thirsty ecosystem to expand our network, activation capabilities, and impact. We are motivated to act as a bridge between the natural world and web3 by bringing in often overlooked but incredibly valuable communities that are more skeptical about entering this new digital space on their own.
Success means that TTDAO has direct partnerships with the best restaurants in the world, including those on top dining lists (Michelin, Zagat, San Pelligrino) and top natural wineries to create a global network of “slow-food” destinations that all accept/participate with crypto tools.
Success means that our vibrant DAO community members are inspired to infuse the values of Thirsty Thirsty in their backyard communities. Many local producers making high-quality food and beverages worldwide are likely also to be Indigenous. We love the idea that reciprocity can be intentionally stimulated in smaller economies across the globe. Ancestral foodways and the restaurants that support them can be uplifted, preserved, and resourced through connection to web3.
Success means that TTDAO has direct partnerships with select Black & Indigenous-led environmental organizations to support their work and collaborate on events, dining experiences, and education.
Going big, success means that Thirsty Thirsty DAO works to repurchase stolen land for First Nation/Indigenous communities. We can collectively support the development of ceremonial spaces where holistic retreats and events can be activated. The land can yield food and profit for the community and function as a safe ceremonial space for the Indigenous communities.
