Chipotle’s press release

What is known about the company? Chipotle is a chain of Mexican restaurants specializing in burritos and tacos. The chain has locations in cities in the US, UK, Canada, Germany, and France. Since June, restaurants in the United States began accepting cryptocurrency payments through the Flexa platform.

Chris Brandt, Chief Marketing Officer at Chipotle, said that the company wants “to build the next generation of Chipotle fandom by connecting with the Web 3.0 community.”

What happened before? In November 2021, the fast-food chain Burger King ran a similar advertising campaign. As part of the promotion, customers of the fast-food chain who spent more than $5 received a raffle coupon. It could be redeemed on the website for one random token. The promotion included 20 BTC, 200 ETH, and 2 million DOGE.
