SBI VC Trade launches NFT campaign with “FRUITS ZIPPER” idol group

SBI VC Trade, a consolidated subsidiary of SBI Holdings that operates a cryptocurrency exchange business, will launch an NFT and signed shikishi board presentation campaign in collaboration with Asobi System and Social Marketing.

FRUITS ZIPPER is an idol group born from the “KAWAII LAB.” project, which aims to transmit Japanese idol culture to the world, managed by Asobi System.

The group’s producer is Misa Kimura, who was previously the leader of Musubizm and is currently the comprehensive producer of “KAWAII LAB.” and active as a model and talent. The group name combines “FRUIT” (meaning “to bear fruit”) with “ZIP” (meaning “to give energy”), creating FRUITS ZIPPER.

With the concept of “From Harajuku to the World”, they aim to transmit “NEW KAWAII” from Harajuku, a diverse cultural hub and a gathering place of unique personalities.
