What is NIDT? Its Challenge to Web3 and Current Status

Operated by OVERSE Inc., NIDT (Nippon Idol Token) aims to integrate Web3 technology into Japan’s idol culture and create new fan experiences.

The project was launched with the involvement of key members connected to Yasushi Akimoto, in collaboration with crypto asset exchange operators such as Coinbook.

Currently, two idol units are active under the project: WHITE SCORPION and Rain Tree.

NIDT focuses primarily on real-world idol activities, while gradually incorporating Web3 elements to pursue co-creation. Key initiatives include:

NIDT aims to solve four key challenges facing idol groups:

  1. Overcoming restrictions on idol activities during crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic
  2. Supporting overseas expansion of Japanese female idol groups
  3. Realizing fan-oriented idol group management through token-based fundraising
  4. Addressing uncertainties in members’ career paths after their idol activities end

Among these, GET has the potential to accelerate solutions for points ①, ②, and ③.
