Tobu Top Tours Launches Infinite Fruit Ticket NFT in Ibaraki Prefecture!

Infinite Fruit Ticket NFT: A New Era of Engagement in Yachiyo, Ibaraki

Tobu Top Tours, under the leadership of President Koji Hyakuda, has announced an innovative initiative in partnership with Yachiyo Town, Ibaraki Prefecture, spearheaded by Mayor Isamu Nomura. Starting from May 30, 2025, at 7 PM, the Infinite Fruit Ticket NFT will be available on HEXA, one of Japan's largest NFT marketplaces.

This unique NFT allows holders to receive fresh fruits annually—worth up to 1,000 yen (tax included)—from local farms, forever! In addition to the yearly harvest, owners can also resell their NFTs, contributing to Yachiyo’s ongoing revenue.

The Infinite Fruit Ticket NFT is not merely a commodity; it encompasses a digital residency function that fosters community and enhances local engagement. Holders will gain access to exclusive local projects such as brainstorming for special products, voting on names, and participating in initiatives aimed at revitalizing the area. Additionally, by presenting their NFT at the Yachiyo Onsen, holders will enjoy discounted bathing rates, further incentivizing visits to this lovely town.

Four Key Benefits of Holding the Infinite Fruit Ticket NFT:

1. Annual Fresh Produce: For every NFT purchased, 1,000 yen worth of fresh fruits or agricultural products will be provided at the JA Joso Hikari Yachiyo direct sales store once a year. Present your NFT and confirm its usage with the store staff. The store is located at 1306 Waka, Yachiyo-machi, Ibaraki, and operates until March 31, 2026, with annual renewal.
Note: The offered items may vary by season and may include items other than fruit, such as eggs or processed foods.

2. Discounts at Local Facilities: Enjoy reduced entrance fees at Yachiyo Onsen. Starting June 2, 2025, customers will receive a discount of 200 yen at local attractions, including the Yachiyo Green Village, which features a hot spring and campground.

3. Monthly Cup Noodle Giveaway: The first 20 visitors who utilize their NFT for discounted admission are eligible to receive Yamadai cup noodles each month, enriching your culinary experience.
