Fans of the legendary Burning Man metropolis and its devoted Mayan Warrior community have a new way to preserve future prospects on and off the playa.
Blockchain technology has long been hailed as a more transparent and cost-effective method of fundraising. Now the Mayan Warrior, one of the world’s leading artistic communities embraces its possibilities.
The organization, which operates as a 501(c)(3), announced the “Mayan Warrior Amulet,” an offering of digital assets to directly support the artistic endeavors that have built the community into a creative powerhouse over the past decade. By purchasing blockchain-powered assets, community members can directly fund artists to help “create, transport, and display their live interactive art on the playa and their performances,” according to a press release shared by EDM.com.

The not-for-profit effort will also raise funds for expenses associated with the iconic Mayan Warrior Art Car, which features toured all over North America and remains a beloved staple of Black Rock City.
“Amulet” holders can enjoy the promise of exclusive gifts, including a physical version of the digital collectible, as well as VIP and backstage access to the group’s fundraising events. Read more about the collection HERE.
The first stop of the Mayan Warrior in 2023 will be January 13 in Tulum, revealed the founder of the organization, Pablo González Vargas. The event will be part of a tour of Mexico.
