25,000 BTZ From Bunz

In case you didn’t know, BTZ is a new-ish cryptocurrency to the Bunz app, and our lucky winner will score A LOT of it to spend trading on the app, or at over one hundred local retail, locations from Drake General Store to Get Well (full list here).

We’ve been behind BUNZ since day one and are all about reducing waste (while saving money) by trading on the app. The best part? With the introduction of BTZ, you can now get rid of the stuff that’s been collecting dust in your closet without acquiring more stuff that you probably don’t need. Instead, turn your BTZ into holiday gifts or eats—there are loads of bars and coffee shops we love on that list!
