U.S. Mushroom Brand to Release 150 NFTs on OpenSea in Support of Alzheimer’s Research

  • Project launched by U.S. mushroom supplements label VidaCap.
  • 150 mushroom-inspired NFTs will be available on OpenSea February 7th.
  • 100% of proceeds will go to Alzheimer’s research.

In another interesting turn for the ever-evolving NFT market, U.S. mushroom supplement company VidaCap has launched a campaign to release 150 collectible NFT cards on OpenSea in support of Alzheimer’s research. The NFTs, which feature original digital designs of five nootropic mushroom species, will be backed by the Ethereum blockchain and released for purchase February 7th, 2022.

The use of mushroom supplements has skyrocketed over the past year, with users claiming they can help with anything from stress and anxiety to athletic performance and brain fog. VidaCap has employed digital designer Kate Ivanova to render unique variations of five popular mushroom species (Chaga, Reishi, Cordyceps, Lion’s Mane, and Turkey Tail), all set in a variety of surreal, Avatar-esque landscapes.

The project, which is already underway in terms of card reveals on Twitter and Discord, is designed to support Alzheimer’s research and help increase awareness on the therapeutic benefits of functional (not psychedelic) mushrooms. The company says 100% of the proceeds from the original NFT sale on OpenSea will be donated to Alzheimer’s research.

VidaCap also has a few pretty cool perks set up for the February 7th drop, gifting a free bottle of authentic mushroom supplement capsules to NFT purchasers who buy in the first week of the OpenSea release. 125 random first-week purchasers will also be chosen to receive a physical printed card, in addition to their digital NFT.
