They have offered the NFT holders membership to the restaurant once it launched. David Rodolitz, one of the restaurant founders explained why membership was sold as tokens. It was to avoid taking investments from people who would not actually visit the restaurant. 501 of these tokens were sold initially and they now command up to 22.8 ETH on marketplaces like OpenSea, proving that they were not just a one-off success.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The resale of these NFTs also provides an income to the restaurant which takes 10% royalties.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Flyfish Club Location Announcement\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8xxzvNYwu5Y?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, the restaurant is moving forward with its plans, having leased its first space. The new space is an <strong>11,000 square feet location in Manhattan<\/strong>, showing just how ambitious the project is. The restaurant, which is due to fully open in 2023, was strategically placed in line with its vision for the future, according to the owners.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>\u201cWe chose this location due to the dynamic neighborhood, the beauty of the building, and the shared vision with ownership of the future of members clubs,<\/em>\u201d Rodolitz said.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Follow the Flyfish Club &gt;&gt; <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Flyfishclub\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Here<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><b>Want more?
