“Restaurants may struggle with customer acquisition and retention, but, @benleventhal notes, there are few spaces in which people are more passionate about what they’re consuming. ‘People waiting hours in line for pancakes, thousands of people on waiting lists for burger joints, people willing to travel literally around the world for a meal that year is transcendent,’ he says. ‘There aren’t many other settings where people have such an insatiable appetite—forgive the pun—for a product or service.’

we recently posted a pretty cool role @blackbird 👀

I'm biased because I've been obsessed with Flynet since long before I joined the team, but I think this is one of the best opportunities out there to bring crypto to life in a tangible, pragmatic way that restaurants and diners actually love

working here has been the most fun and fulfilling chapter of my career so far. come join me, @internetalyssa, and the rest of the team as we make Blackbird a household name and build the restaurant economy of the future!

Our @blackbird FLYNET community and and its F2 token holders have been patiently waiting for an update. Here is one of a few you’ll get from us this quarter:
—Transaction volume on the FLYNET has grown more than 1000% since we launched the mainnet in February. 🚀
—We have launched two new markets — Denver and SF — and LA is up next, at the end of this month. 📍
—Season 2 F2 airdrop particulars as well as guidance on the timing for unlocking F2 will be made clear by end of October. 📅
—Our immediate focus for FLYNET is on building out its capabilities and enhancing the utility of the chain, especially as it relates to serving our partners in the restaurant industry.🍝
—Development of FLYNET will continue to happen in lockstep with development of Blackbird's consumer platform. Hopefully you've been using the app and having fun.⭐️
—If you’ve been following along, you know that we are a highly iterative team, and we’ll continue to be that way. In this next phase of development, we’ll be calling on developers from outside the company to collaborate with us. Is that you? DM me.🧑‍🔧

It’s officially been one year since we launched in Charleston, one of America’s most elite restaurant towns, and we couldn’t be happier to be in the Holy City 🤝. As our CEO and Founder @benleventhal told the @ChasCityPaper:

“Charleston is one of the most exciting food cities in the country,” he said. “The city’s blend of history, community and a deep respect for independent restaurants makes it a natural fit for Blackbird. It’s a market where diners are curious, loyal and love discovering new experiences – exactly the kind of environment where great dining thrives.”

Reflecting on year one in the Lowcountry, Leventhal noted Charleston has been Blackbird’s most successful city launch thus far: “We’re not surprised it’s clicked, but I’m not sure we would have predicted that it is outpacing New York in terms of speed of adoption. But maybe we shouldn’t be shocked: Charleston diners love supporting local restaurants that love them back.”

Consumer crypto should unlock tangible, real world things. Like...

🍕 Pizza 🍕. We're talking some of the world's best pizza, right in Brooklyn 📍.

On Tuesday, July 15 we're bringing Frank Pinello, of cult-favorite Williamsburg slice shop Best Pizza, and Ryan Gray, who works wonders with Quebec wheat, Neapolitan techniques, and new-school creativity at Montreal’s acclaimed Elena, to the Franks' empire in Carroll Gardens for the F&F Pizza Sessions.

Expect: all-you-can-eat slices and pie, Frankies classics (crudo, arancini, the works 🤌), and cocktails all night long. Plus gelato, tiramisu, and backyard Brooklyn vibes aplenty - tell the 🏖️ body diet you're giving it the night off.

Hit the link below to grab your ticket. We got you. 🤜🤛
