The Problem
Cocktail culture generates enduring economic and cultural value, yet ownership remains fragmented and informal. Recipes circulate freely, venues capture episodic upside, and the creators responsible for differentiation rarely participate beyond wages and tips.
Mission
Crypto Cocktail Club exists to establish ownership infrastructure for cocktail culture — aligning incentives without introducing speculative dynamics, operational burden, or consumer friction.
How the Protocol Works
Cocktail NFTs
Cocktail NFTs represent single-use execution rights for original recipes. They are created by bartenders, executed by venues, and redeemed by guests.
Each NFT can only be redeemed once. Upon redemption, it is burned — ensuring attribution integrity.
TIPZ Incentive Layer
TIPZ functions as an incentive coordination layer, not a consumer payment rail.
Guests never pay with TIPZ. Venues never accept TIPZ. Allocation occurs automatically based on execution and participation.
Venue Participation
Venues incur no crypto exposure and no custodial burden. Participation mirrors familiar brand activations and sponsored hospitality events.
Settlement occurs off-chain in stable rails, insulating operators from volatility and regulatory complexity.
Compliance by Design
Crypto Cocktail Club does not custody consumer funds, does not process payments, and does not require crypto usage at point of service.
The protocol is intentionally constrained to minimize regulatory exposure and operational risk.
Founder Perspective
Crypto Cocktail Club was born from a decade behind the bar — witnessing how cultural value is created long before it is captured.
Now is the time to implement a protocol that realigns cocktail culture to be more equitable for the professionals who make the industry work night after night.
