U REMEMBER? Pepsi, Coca-Cola & Budverse NFTs
In late 2021, the absolute peak of NFT mania, big Web2 brands rushed to get on-chain.
Pepsi dropped the Mic Drop collection - 1,893 NFTs honoring their 1893 roots, free mint.
(I like it because I've made some profit here)
Coca-Cola launched Friendship Box loot NFTs on OpenSea with virtual jackets and sounds, later followed by more drops like Masterpiece.
Budweiser went further with Budverse Cans Heritage Edition (1,936 digital cans) and multiple follow-ups including artist collabs.
It made people bullish af
"Huge brands finally understand Web3!"
Many Web2 brands joined the fomo train, thinking NFTs = instant cool + new revenue.
Fast forward to 2026:
Pepsi Mic Drop floor sits around 0.05 ETH with basically zero volume.
Coca-Cola collections are ghost towns.
Budverse Cans trade for peanuts, most "exclusive experiences" long forgotten.
The vast majority of these corporate drops delivered thin utility and died with the entire NFT narrative.
We have this or Polygon cooperating with Starbucks, and many more attempts to make crypto mainstream, or bringing Web2 people into here.
And what finally worked? Stablecoins with credit cards.
Damn, it sounds super bad from a 2021 perspective.

No elite coach in his outright senses will make Vinicius the main man of a football club. I repeat no one. Xabi didn’t even try and was sacked. Arbeloa was tasked to make him that guy and he failed, he couldn’t lead. Vini is a Di Maria, A Rashford, an OZIL or maybe an Alvarez. These are support players not leaders of a project.
These guys mentioned are talented but they simply can’t lead. They aren’t that consistent. Yes, they can have moments but it ends there. You make a player who can always step up your main player. For example if Cristiano or Messi is having a bad game and there’s a penalty you expect them to convert. You can rely on them to convert it, Vini on the other hand can’t be trusted with such responsibilities . It’s not about hate or dislike, he simply isn’t that guy everyone is forcing him to be and he knows it. That’s why in one of his interviews he said I’m here to help Kylian score goals.
Off course he knows he can’t handle that pressure of being depended on for goals each game. And that’s exactly why after going 20+ matches without a goal it was accepted. 10 games without a goal from Kylian wouldn’t be tolerated at all, Like Messi or Ronaldo.
The club didn’t want to accept that because they thought he was the main reason why we won the double in 23/24. That’s not true by a mile. Jude, A midfielder was the top scorer in La liga with 19 goals and 4 in the UCL. Vini on the other hand scored 15 La liga goals and only 6 in the UCL. Rodrygo, Joselu and Brahim had their fair shares of goals in that season.
The face of that project wasn’t Vini and he wasn’t the main player that season as well. With 15 league goals and 6 UCL goals you can’t lead a project and that’s why France football didn’t give him Ballon Do’r award, and since then he’s actually shown that he didn’t deserve it, although he promised to do it 10x more whatever he achieved that season.
So those calling on Vinicius to be the main man just calm down, he’s a support player not a main man. I already gave examples of his caliber of players who are clearly ahead of him when it comes to Talent and Achievements but they accepted the support role to enable the main men to deliver without any jealousy or envy.
Honestly I don’t care how anyone responds to this but that’s just the fact.
Xabi’s project was ruined because he wasn’t getting the accolades he thinks he deserved, but after the Cone came in to make him his main man what happened? Ghosts in 8 games and show up in two. That’s not his fault, that’s his level.
