The Matrix Avatars became the first 100,000 unique pfp project, selling on Nifty’s! And after a shaky couple of days with some technical issues, they sold out.

SpiceDAO (formerly DuneDAO) raised $11.8 million to finalize the purchase of the famed Jodorowsky's Dune manuscript and was able to purchase it. However, DAO couldn’t raise enough ETH to buy the manuscript; thus the co-founder of the DAO Soban Saqib (who goes by "Soby") put his own money to complete the purchase. Now he is trying to fundraise more money so the community would buy it back from him. 👉 Read More
