Listen "Proof of Work Amidst the NFT Land Holidaze"
Episode Synopsis
It sure seems like a lot of folks are on vacation. Like, not just from crypto and NFT lands, but in real life.
Historically, in the period from May to the end of August, sales tend to slow down when it comes to the art-side of things. Couple that with an overall sluggish market and it makes sense that a lot of folks are starting longer vacations earlier. There is no need to be on 24/7 every single day.
But that doesn't mean there's nothing going on. On the contrary, from mega corporations like Nike and Starbucks or Red Bull launching NFT-powered projects to artists like Trevor Jones & The Evening Standard on-boarding new blood or crypto games like Axie Infinity getting their game listed on the Apple app store, there is probably more meaningful work happening now than at any period during the bull in terms of things that are growing the pie for everyone.
There are also hugely notable events that are aimed at existing participants, like Alpha Centauri Kids' epic 48 individual 1/1 auctions that grossed over a million dollars last week, amongst other events.
So, before, during or after your holiday from NFT land, make sure you take note of all the work that's being put out.
