AMBUSH Reveals Limited Edition NFT With Avalanche
AMBUSH is not new to NFTs or the Web3 world and already has a number of successful token releases under its belt and a growing ecosystem. This is largely due to the brand’s creative director, Yoon Ahnwhich shows massive support and a vision for Web3’s place in fashion.
The latest offer is a collaboration with Avalanche blockchain’s Culture Catalyst program – a USD 100 million fund created with NFT platform OP3N to fuel culturally relevant projects for the Avax ecosystem.
Through the collaboration, AMBUSH produces a limited edition necklace in the form of a wearable NFT, based on the popular lighter case pendant. Titled “A3”, the necklace comes in a limited edition AVAX RED colorway and includes several tools.
Holders of the NFT will receive an associated physical version of the chain and will be given virtual access to an exclusive event happening in Milan on September 23, as well as several other benefits that have yet to be revealed.

The A3 NFT also includes a chance to enter a raffle for access to an IRL experience in Milan, as well as access to the token-gated room in AMBUSH’s SILVER FCTRY Metaverse. This will allow holders to join the virtual experience and potentially discover virtual treats while there.
“On AMBUSH we’re all about exploring new frontiers. Since launching our POW!® NFT and SILVER FCTRY metaverse earlier this year, we’ve been trying to merge real touch points and products with Web3,” Ahn shared, adding “A3 in collaboration with Avalanche and OP3N is an exciting project for us where we will further explore how real products and digital experience can interact and create new values and standards for the space.”
A total of 2,023 A3 NFTs will be available on September 12th, with winners announced on September 15th — holders of both AMBUSH POW!®️ REBOOT and POW!®️ GITD NFTs will be on the A3 permission list and have access to buy NFTs.
“Fashion is such an integral part of culture, and this partnership with AMBUSH is a perfect addition to the list of Culture Catalyst projects shared by OP3N’s co-CEO Jaeson Ma, adding that “AMBUSH’s first two NFT drops, which sold out on few minutes, demonstrates the appetite and demand for exclusive access to brands in Web3 and we are excited to partner with them on the A3 NFT decline.”
