Details Announced about the OPJ NFT + Live Tour!
Event #1: 
When: March 30, 2023; 6-8pm ET
Where: Ampersand Studios, 31 NE 17th Street, Miami FL 33132
Who: Julian Holguin, Doodles CEO

There are 150 open spots. OPJ NFT holders can begin reserving their seat on Thursday, March 16, 2023.

One OPJ NFT gives you the opportunity to reserve one seat for each of our 6 live events. 

We are airdropping you a new NFT that will (effectively) replace your old NFT. This is how that is going to work:

Tuesday (March 14th) we are going to take a snapshot of all our NFT holders
Wednesday (March 15th) all holders will be airdropped a new NFT that looks just like the original with new functionality and metadata. The original NFT will be changed so that it clearly is not the current NFT. 
Thursday (March 16th) you will be able to start reserving seats for the Miami event using your new NFT.

This new NFT will be used for everything. The old NFT will be commemorative with no utility, though the visuals will change to something fun.
