NFT project plans crowdfund purchase of Cold War nuclear bunker

The pseudonymous co-founder of Dead Bruv, said the initiative was about trying to “make NFTs fun again” and was sparked by a joke that turned into a “lightbulb moment.”

A doomsday-themed Solana NFT project is looking to sell 100,000 non-fungible tokens (NFTs) to buy a Cold War-era nuclear bunker in Rutland, England.

Dead Bruv, the creators of the narrative-driven NFT project Meatbags, plan to mint 100,000 NFTs, with Meatbags holders being airdropped 10,000. The the rest will be sold off starting April 21, starting at $14 a pop, according to a post on the Meatbags X account.
