💎 NFTs

  • The only drop anybody cared about this week was Moonbirds. The first PFP project by Proof Collective and Kevin Rose, Moonbirds, got hyped and delivered. The collection saw more trading volume in 48 hours than many huge projects like World of Women. It’s one of those projects that marks a change. Owners get access to Proof Collective and will get to “nest” (aka stake) their NFTs. 👉 Read More

👹 Savage of the Week

It’s especially funny when people or government agencies who are supposed to be serious make jokes. Vienna’s Tourist Board sent a Freud avatar to the metaverse, where Freud tells people to take a break from the virtual world. There’s a Trip to Vienna prize for a random person who interacts with him.
