Description: Our objective was to reverse the effect of lockdowns on sales, while building on the chocolate's unique tagline ‘Eat 5 Star. Do Nothing’.

While millions invest their hard-earned money in risky cryptocurrencies, we've launched a digital coin that lets people invest their downtime instead. It's called 'Nothingcoin' and it can be mined without any hardware - all one has to do is scan the QR code on a bar of 5-Star chocolate, sit down and do nothing. A mobile microsite then measures the user’s inactivity, and rewards them with nothingcoins for every minute that they spend doing nothing, without checking their phones or getting up. We even went a step further and built an actual physical bank in Mumbai’s banking district - where customers can simply sit down, do nothing, and mine nothingcoins. But the currency is no joke - it is now accepted by India's largest payment portal.

Results: 4.4 million minutes spent by miners, doing nothing. Products worth $30,000 purchased using nothingcoin. 1.2 billion impressions. 200+ earned media placements. 29% increase in sales.
