Web3.0でアイドル活動領域と推し活を拡大 NIDTを活用して日本のアイドル文化を海外に発信ー佐藤義仁インタビュー

Pursuing the utility of NIDT in promoting activities

What do you think about the current state of the Web 3.0 field?

Yoshihito Sato (hereinafter Sato): Recently, a system is being established in which NIDT is circulated within projects as a payment currency, such as the sale of the video NFT "eye to i" exclusively for NIDT payments and official goods exclusively for NIDT payments. In addition, the ties between NIDT and the entertainment field have finally been strengthened, with the sale of VIP seats exclusively for NIDT payments at WHITE SCORPION's first solo live (held on 9/8), and the development of VIP seats for other idol group (Rough x Rough) live performances with NIDT payments.

NIDT is not just a cryptocurrency with financial value, but by creating an environment that pursues utility so that it can be used to support idol groups by holding it, we are honestly embodying our basic idea of ​​evolving idol activities and support activities more broadly using NIDT, with a focus on the idol groups belonging to our company.

In the future, we would like to introduce a system that allows NIDT holders and fans to experience the idol projects we promote more widely by more precisely designing the "fan rank" that visualizes the NIDT holding status as well as the performance of the idol's support activities, and we would also like to develop measures targeting overseas expansion.
