    <p>The world experienced a cultural shift on Thursday as Snoop Dogg proclaimed to be “giving up smoke,” a radical change that crypto punters have turned into another crypto bet — but could the announcement be part of an edibles and NFT business launch?</p>
    <p>The 52-year-old rapper revealed on social media this week, “After much consideration and conversation with my family, I’ve decided to give up smoke.”</p>
    <p>“Please respect my privacy at this time.”</p>
    <p>The statement sparked speculation that <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="Snoop Dogg" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/snoop-dogg.html">Snoop Dogg</a> might coincidentally be gearing up for a product <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="launch" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/launch.html">launch</a>; some say for his cannabis company Leafs By Snoop, or his <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="edibles" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/edibles.html">edibles</a> and digital cannabis brand, Uncle Snoop’s.</p>

    <p>In 2022, onion-flavored and cannabis-infused ‘Snazzle Os’ hit shelves in California — the first edibles product to launch under the Uncle Snoop’s brand. The ring-shaped snacks, described as more onion-y than Funyuns, were released in partnership with Tsumo Snacks.</p>
    <p>According to the company’s trademark filing, Uncle Snoop’s aims to provide much more: “virtual cannabis goods for use in online environments” that are “all authenticated by non-fungible tokens [<a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="NFT" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/nft.html">NFT</a>s].”</p>
    <p>Plans to sell “pre-rolled hemp cigarettes” and other smoking items are listed, alongside clothing and <strong>food products like potato chips, cookies, and iced-coffee</strong>.</p>

    <p>The rapper, TV host, Def Jam exec, and cookbook author doesn’t strike his fans as one to waste a good crisis.</p>
    <p>“This is probably just gonna be some viral campaign where he launches his own line of vapes or edibles or something,” reads a top comment on Snoop Dogg’s announcement on X (formerly Twitter). One X user speculated, “Snoop about to become an edibles legend.”</p>
