In a new blog post, Shiba Inu developer Shytoshi Kusama has announced a partnership with an Italian fast-food restaurant called Welly’s.
Welly’s has already conducted a full rebrand, making the Shiba Inu dog its new mascot and adopting a new tagline that refers to the meme coin’s anonymous creator. It has also adjusted its menu and marketing strategy.
The SHIB cryptocurrency will be used as a means of payment at the store, with rival cryptocurrency Dogecoin being another possible payment option.
Kusama claims that the obscure restaurant is known for “extremely high-quality food.” The restaurant will have healthy food options:
Welly’s is a “burger joint” but we understand the importance of having vegetarian, vegan, and “healthy” fast food options. Upon the opening of our flagship store, we will introduce more options to cater to these needs.
Presently, there is only one store located in Naples, but the team plans to reach global scale, rejecting the idea of partnering with “huge centralized conglomerates.”
As reported by U.Today, Tesla CEO Elon Musk recently asked McDonald’s to accept Dogecoin, but the fast-food behemoth laughed the suggestion off.
MrBeast Burger, a restaurant chain opened by famous YouTuber MrBeast, recently said that it would add support for Dogecoin if Musk retweeted its proposal.
