Since the real world is quite magical, people often imagine what they would do when the world is about to end, such as stocking up on food and drinks, hiding in a well-prepared nuclear shelter or bunker, and throwing a party until the very last moment - how does that sound?
Solana Non-Fungible Token project Metabags is preparing to sell 100,000 Non-Fungible Tokens to raise funds for purchasing a nuclear bunker built during the Cold War in Rutland, UK. Meatbags' Creator Dead Bruv plans to mint 100,000 Non-Fungible Tokens, with Meatbags holders receiving 10,000 airdrops. According to a post on Meatbags X, the remaining Metabags will start selling from April 21st, with a starting price of $14.
The hashtag for this Non-Fungible Token project is #buythebunker, claiming to be the most bizarre real estate crowdfunding Non-Fungible Token project. Robert, an anonymous co-founder of Dead Bruv, stated that the plan's purpose is to make Non-Fungible Tokens fun again.

ToggleWelcome to the End of the World Club
Non-Fungible Token holders can join a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) called the "Billionaire Bunker Club", a community that manages real-world assets on-chain. If the bunker is successfully purchased, the club will vote to determine its governance. The Non-Fungible Token project team has also come up with new ideas for after buying the bunker, including a "members-only and DJ doomsday survival resort hotel" to celebrate the end of the world, and an Airbnb room offering caviar and canned beans.
UK Real Estate Auction House to List Doomsday Bunker for Sale
The UK online real estate auction house SDL Property Auctions has listed the doomsday bunker that Dead Bruv wants to purchase, with a suggested selling price of £650,000 ($862,257), and the auction date set for April 24th.
The real estate page shows that the bunker is located near a reservoir, covering 1.4 acres, and the winning bidder will obtain permission to convert it into a house. The bunker was built in 1960 and used as a nuclear radiation monitoring post during the Cold War. According to SDL Auctions' introduction, it is one of 1,500 bunkers responsible for reporting nuclear explosions and monitoring radioactive dust.
The underground bunker listed for sale is located in Uppingham, UK, and was built in 1960 as a Royal Observation Corps (ROC) Cold War monitoring station, retiring in 1968. During the peak of the Cold War, the ROC had underground monitoring stations across the UK, responsible for reporting nuclear explosions and monitoring the resulting radioactive dust.
The site has obtained planning permission, and the auctioneer describes it as a "unique large residential property" with "cathedral-like ceilings", a wide glass frontage, two levels of stunning accommodation, and views of the surrounding Leicestershire countryside.
