Popular beer brand Bud Light has partnered with the decentralized autonomous organization Nouns DAO.
The partnership is expected to be for its Super Bowl ad, which will air on Sunday and come days after Bud Light entered into the non-fungible token space with Bud Light NEXT NFT. In line with the partnership, Bud Light will use the Nouns DAO iconic glasses in the ad.
Nouns is an NFT project based on Ethereum that generates avatars based on nouns, i.e., people, things, and places.
Every day, one noun is generated and auctioned off. The Nouns DAO is responsible for the governance of the project and receives all ETH proceeds from the sale of Nouns NFT.
