The promotion will run from Jan. 27 and will continue through the end of the Super Bowl on Feb. 13. Not surprisingly, the big game is a big day for the company since buffalo wings are a popular snack for the game.
The Frank’s RedHot cryptocurrency is called Bonecoin. Fans can accumulate the digital coins by taking pictures of leftover bones from chicken wings and uploading them to Bonecoin.com.
The press release also confirmed that Bonecoin is not meant to be a real cryptocurrency and is only a spoof created for this contest.

We're excited to be a first to offer an edible NFT, or what we're calling an eNFT. What better way to enjoy football than with your own Frank's wing art – both digital and edible."
