Crypto-Fueled Rekt Drinks Sells 1 Millionth Can Amid MoonPay Collab

The post Crypto-Fueled Rekt Drinks Sells 1 Millionth Can Amid MoonPay Collab appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. In brief Rekt Brands sold its 1 millionth can of its Rekt Drinks flavored sparkling water. The Web3 firm collaborated with payments infrastructure company MoonPay on a peach-raspberry flavor called “Moon Crush.” Rekt incentivizes purchasers of its drinks with the REKT token, which hit an all-time high market cap of $583 million in August. Web3 consumer firm Rekt Brands sold its 1 millionth can of its Rekt Drinks sparkling water on Friday, surpassing its first major milestone with the sold-out drop of its “Moon Crush” flavor—a peach raspberry-flavored collaboration with payments infrastructure firm MoonPay.  The sale follows Rekt’s previous sellout collaborations with leading Web3 brands like Solana DeFi protocol Jupiter, Ethereum layer-2 network Abstract, and Coinbase’s layer-2 network, Base.

In particular, Faruq highlighted MoonPay’s role as a “gateway” between non-crypto and crypto users as a reason the collaboration made “perfect sense.”  “We’re thrilled to bring something to life that is both delicious and deeply connected to the crypto community,” MoonPay President Keith Grossman told Decrypt.  Rekt Brands has been bridging the gap between Web3 and the real world with sales of its sparkling water since November 2024. In its first sale,…
