Friends of George (FOG) NIL and Coach Chris Caputo are teaming up to release an experiential NFT drop benefiting the GW Basketball Team and its student-athletes on the ReserveBlock RBX Network commemorating Coach Caputo’s first season in 2023 and the team’s appearance in the Atlantic Ten Tournament at the Barclay’s Center in Caputo’s hometown of Brooklyn, NY The exclusive “Raise High” drop consists of six exclusive one-of-one NFTs each as a multi-asset token minted on the RBX network containing unique digital and physical assets, each with unique experiences that can be redeemed by the holder directly with Coach Caputo himself as he interacts IRL with GW Basketball players. The exclusive commemorative FOG drop will be the first for any NIL where fans, students, FOG sponsors/supporters, will have direct access to the extremely rare tokens directly without any third party, enabling true on-chain tools for collection, interaction and redemption.
Furthermore, the “Raise High” commemorative collectibles can also be easily traded peer-to-peer through the RBX Web Wallet and can potentially unlock benefits for holders associated with FOG NIL events in the future. All proceeds will be donated by Coach Caputo to benefit the program and its student-athletes.
“While bringing a title home to GW is always our primary goal, it starts with strengthening our connection with the community for the benefit of our student-athletes, the university and all GW fans. I believe this is a unique way to bring our players and fans together in a more engaging way and using blockchain technology gives us a unique opportunity to do just that.” Coach Caputo said “We welcome this kind of commitment for our student-athletes! As NIL empowers them, we want to encourage forward-looking usage that goes far beyond mere earning potential. I believe this will help give fans a front-row seat to our journey for a title, while democratizing the landscape for all of our student-athletes and continuing to raise the bar of excellence our program stands for.” Coach Caputo stated
The exclusive “Raise High” commemorative series will be available immediately at Coach Caputo’s RBX Web Wallet Auction on Friday the 12th. May at 1 p.m. ET.

About ReserveBlock
ReserveBlock RBX (ReserveBlock.IO) is an open source p2p layer 1 blockchain built in C# that is fully autonomous, decentralized and governed by validators through on-chain voting. RBX was developed with a limited purpose, to democratize mining without the burdens and frictions of Proof of Work (PoW) or Proof of Stake (PoS), but rather a fluid Proof of Assurance (PoA) consensus while earning randomized block rewards in a carbon neutral environment, such as a laptop computer with participation at will. The network is gas-free with no lock-in or holding periods and gives zero weight to a user’s balance. The RBX network is also a complete self-governing ecosystem that provides any user with on-chain tools and features to tokenize any digital or physical resource with native minting through self-executing NFT smart contracts (SEN). RBX SENs can be distributed natively with peer-to-peer transfer of the underlying media and files associated with any NFT and through a non-custodial core wallet without any third-party application.
