■Where is Yamakoshi?
Yamakoshi is a small village in the mid-mountain region of Niigata Prefecture, and is now part of Nagaoka City after a municipal merger in the past. With heavy snowfall of up to 3 meters in winter, and a rugged geographical terrain with almost no flat grounds, Yamakoshi has lived with its tough natural environment. Yamakoshi faces not only tough natural environment, but also faced natural disasters. 19 years ago, the village was hit by the Chuetsu Earthquake in 2004 which completely destroyed the area that the entire village was evacuated, and the number of residents has dropped from approximately 2,200 at the time to less than 800 today.
Yamakoshi is famous for:
The birthplace of Colored carp, Nishikigoi
Bull Fighting
■Nishikigoi NFT Project
Nishikigoi NFT is an NFT that represents being a digital villager in Yamakoshi, which functions like an "e-resident card". Yamakoshi reinvents itself as a globally open region bringing its unique cultures to the world together with the digital villagers. We believe that NFT is the best tool to redefine the way that people interact with the local regions, and we bring real and digital people together.
