Oasis Digital Studios together with McCartney Multimedia and Renowned Chef and Entrepreneur, David Skinner Launch Gourmet NFTs for the Culinary Industry and Fans

Recipes from famous restaurants, award-winning culinary talents and chef’s kitchen recipes available as digital collectibles and NFTs.

Toronto, Canada / Los Angeles, California / Houston, Texas – October 19, 2021Oasis Digital Studios Limited (“Oasis”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Liquid Avatar Technologies Inc. (CSE: LQID / OTCQB:LQAVF / FRA:4T51), a global blockchain, digital identity and fintech solutions company, is pleased to announce that together with McCartney Multimedia, Inc. and renowned Chef-owner of Houston’s eculent restaurant, and entrepreneur, David Skinner are working with award-winning chefs and culinary experts to officially launch Gourmet NFT. Creating NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) and digital collectibles for restaurant, tournament, secret and chefs’ own kitchen recipes, Gourmet NFT will enable foodies, fans and those that just want to be better and more diverse cooks to collect, organize and own legendary recipes. As part of the founding group and exclusive agency for this program, earning up to 35% from each sale, Oasis is leading the development of new technology to enable recipe holders to use their NFTs as “keys” to unlock web features for easy access to online videos, recipes and exclusive information and tips.  NFTs can be resold, allowing new holders to have access to the online content.

According to Foodnetwork.com and their article The Biggest Food Trends We’ll Be Talking About in 2021, 2020 saw online grocery sales increasing by 53% and foresees the growth in online grocery sales continuing as the pandemic disrupted the way people cook and eat.  With millions of North Americans spending more time at home, cooking everything from cookies to family meals has increased and many people are venturing to expand their culinary expertise.  Users will be able to search the site by mealtime, allergen, food ingredients and a whole host of meta tags to hone in on the recipes they wish to download and collect in their wallet. Meanwhile Chefs and culinary creators will have a way to augment their income with residual royalties from their digital downloads.

Recipes will range in price allowing everyone who is interested in expanding their food knowledge and culinary repertoire to collect Gourmet NFT recipes. There will also be a higher price range for the true “unobtanium” type of recipes that fall into off-menu or “secret sauce” categories. In addition, a select few Chefs will be offering a one-off experiential NFT opportunity ranging from dinner with the Chef in person, to skip-the-line / golden ticket offerings for those impossible to get into restaurants.

“Chef and I have worked together on several projects over the last few years, including branding his Kemah, TX based Meticulous Spirits Distillery, and filming his record-breaking brainchild event “Around The World In 10,000 Bites”, where Chef and 43 of his closest, world-renowned chef friends from 10 countries fed a 101 course meal to 120 diners in the dinosaur exhibit of the Houston Natural History Museum. We’ve always had our eye on technology integration for marketing using QR, and now AR labels, and when we came up with GourmetNFT.com, the concept just seemed to fit right into the futuristic perception of Chef David’s reputation” said Ruth McCartney CEO and Digital Diva of McCartney Multimedia.

With over 650 recipes already submitted, Gourmet NFT advises that it is expected to start testing later this month, and go live before US Thanksgiving. Gourmet NFT is among the first professional platforms to empower the culinary industry to create residual value from their famous and unpublished recipes. Gourmet NFT has amassed over 400 leading restauranteurs, executive, private, celebrity and award-winning Chefs whose accolades include James Beard nominations and awards; Michelin Star recognition; A5 Wagyu Certification; UK’s prestigious AAA 3Rosette awards; Food Network, Discovery Channel and Fox TV featured Chefs as well as Instagram / social media sensations. The cuisines run the gamut from, North America to North Africa, England to Egypt, encompassing 15 countries’ foods. Gourmet NFT enables these culinary experts to share their family, secret and restaurant favorites directly on the upcoming sales pages or through active QR codes that can be scanned at their website and / or restaurant for easy purchase.

“I’m excited to be able to give my friends and peers a way to easily realize revenue from recipes in a much simpler format than publishing a cookbook. The added value that a Chef can earn RESIDUAL royalties on the blockchain aftermarket is also something the industry has never seen before. Plus, hopefully we will now finally be able to copyright our creations as digital files.” added Chef Skinner, proprietor of Houston’s eculent restaurant, which has a three-year waiting list.

“Gourmet NFT provides the opportunity for anyone who wants to collect or expand their culinary skills to own coveted recipes from some of the world’s leading chefs who may not yet have had the chance to publish an entire cookbook,” said David Lucatch, CEO of Liquid Avatar Technologies, and Managing Director of Oasis Digital Studios. “Oasis is proud to be part of this program as we expand our range of digital collectibles to the online market.”

By identifying such information and statements in this manner, the Company is alerting the reader that such information and statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results, level of activity, performance, or achievements of the Company to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such information and statements. In addition, in connection with the forward-looking information and forward-looking statements contained in this press release, the Company has made certain assumptions. With respect to (i) the future launch of Company Services is based on the fact that the Company has substantially completed the current build of its offering(s) as specified and that the Company believes that there are currently there no material outstanding items; (ii) statements regarding the future capabilities of Company Services, the Company has assumed that the partnerships and / or current blockchain technology and infrastructure will remain substantially unchanged, and that new technologies will need to be developed as required; (iii) statements suggesting Company Services will be successfully launched and integrated into the Liquid Avatar platform(s), the Company has assumed that government, industry and market conditions will remain relatively focused on the testing and presentation of Covid testing, vaccination record presentation and other credential requirements for identity and access to venues, facilities, hospitality, education, healthcare, travel and other destinations; that rules, laws and jurisdictional regulation for crypto currency and related token offerings will remain substantially unchanged.

Among the key factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking information and statements are the following: failure to obtain necessary approvals from governments and other jurisdictional regulatory bodies;  lack of sufficient capital to expand the Company’s geographic footprint or to add new features to the Company’s offerings, including to launch an integrated offering engine and to successfully complete the development of and launch and integrate LAVCE or an Indicio Network Node; changes in general economic, business, and political conditions, including changes in the financial markets; changes in applicable laws; compliance with extensive government regulation.

Although the Company believes that the assumptions and factors used in preparing, and the expectations contained in, the forward-looking information and statements are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on such information and statements, and no assurance or guarantee can be given that such forward-looking information and statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such information and statements. The forward-looking information and forward-looking statements contained in this press release are made as of the date of this press release, and the Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking information and/or forward-looking statements that are contained or referenced herein, except in accordance with applicable securities laws.
