the most popular NFTs right now are reducing friction no discord, the magic is on twitter where you are no payment, free to mint no roadmap, doesn't mean we're not building no IP contracts, it's cc0 so make whatever you want free flowing memes are what the internet does best

people who sell cash grab NFTs are just bearish on NFT tech, or they don't understand it yet. they think it's a flash moment and they need to grab as many chips before it ends. actually it's a multi-decade paradigm shift and you killed your rep to cash in at the starting line.

easily one of the biggest design flaws in web 3 right now is having to use your cold wallet to verify an NFT for all these micro events and games who doesn't love exposing their entire collection to a potential hack every time they want to attend some party

NFT volume has dried up we're seeing $20m/day on eth compared to $128m/day average in Jan yet many "blue chip" collections are still holding floor prices above what they were in Jan (doodles, clones, azuki, BAYC) feels very bullish for those communities if this lasts

if BAYC pulls off their APE token successfully it raises the value of all the other top pfps in my eyes because it lays the roadmap for going from collection to brand ecosystem which is a huge leap NFT development is open source so one breakthrough is a win for the whole space

The future of NFTs is investing in groups. Information will be shared in discords, party bids will let you punch above your weight and then DAOs will form to promote and expand the group's collection. If you try to go solo for too long you're NGMI.
