🟢 Introducing Beansterdam: The First DAO-Governed NFT Cannabis Lounge

A phygital venture bridging cannabis culture, tokenized utility, and decentralized governance — right in the heart of Amsterdam.

🚬 The Vision

Beansterdam is building the first real-world coffeeshop operated through NFT access and a DAO. This is a multi-layered Web3 project that blends:

  • Cannabis lifestyle & monthly utility

  • NFT membership tiers with on-chain governance

  • Physical space + metaverse integration

  • Cultural, community-driven curation

🧩 The Problem

The cannabis market remains heavily centralized, under-regulated in Europe, and culturally stagnant. At the same time, most NFT projects lack tangible utility or geographic grounding. We’re merging both to offer real value.
