Claynosaurz anunciou a data de mintagem para Popkins ontem.

Eles estão lançando a nova coleção na Sui no dia 29 de maio.

Ela consiste em 25 mil NFTs chamados "Popkins", que são basicamente pequenos dinossauros que expandem o universo existente de Clayno.

O processo de mintagem será interessante (e um pouco complexo), então aqui está um resumo rápido:

1) Qualquer um pode comprar ingressos na Sui a $200 USD cada, que são vinculados à alma e funcionam como ingressos de mintagem para "pacotes". Aberto ao público.

2) Os pacotes são então distribuídos, os minters podem revelar um de cada vez.

3) Existem três tipos diferentes de pacotes: Lendário (Popkin garantido), Fuga (sem Popkin, outras recompensas digitais) e Rato (Rato exclusivo), que são revelados aleatoriamente.

Os detentores de Claynosaurz recebem airdrops.

A parte legal é que se você não revelar um Popkin, você recebe um reembolso de $200 USD e pode ficar com as outras recompensas digitais, entre outras coisas:

- "Pontos de pena" que formarão sua pontuação na tabela de classificação (os 50 melhores recebem um NFT gratuito de Claynosaurz).

- "Cartões de fuga" (que são NFTs vinculados à alma que serão adicionados ao seu perfil no sistema de conquistas dos Claynosaurz).

Tanto a nova coleção quanto o sistema de conquistas funcionarão na Sui.

Claynosaurz tem estado ativo no ecossistema Sui no passado, particularmente na descentralização de armazenamento com o Walrus, um serviço que outros ecossistemas também usam agora (por exemplo, Pudgy Penguins para seus adesivos e GIFs).

Animado para ver como a mintagem vai se desenrolar, definitivamente abrirei alguns pacotes em uma transmissão ao vivo, um grande passo para o ecossistema Sui também.

Junte-se a nós mais tarde hoje enquanto discutimos a nova mintagem com a equipe do Claynosaurz, lembretes abaixo

Both $ANIME and $PENGU have outperformed their non-fungible counterparts over the last 30 days.

NFT floor price increase was largely due to the pump in ETH/USD, ETH-wise floors have been flat.

$PENGU and $ANIME reacted much differently to the more bullish crypto environment than Pudgy Penguins and Azuki NFTs, even tho there is some correlation (again, mainly due to ETH pumping from $1,800 USD to $2,700 USD).

Interesting.

Would you rather hold the NFTs or the coins? Or both?

Ngl it's an incredible time to be active in this space right now

As pessoas entram em pânico quando os preços sobem porque estão completamente de lado e temem ter perdido sua entrada.

As pessoas entram em pânico quando os preços caem porque estão totalmente alocadas e não conseguem comprar a baixa.

Independentemente do que for sua tese para os próximos meses, seja você extremamente otimista ou ache que um mercado em baixa é iminente:

Sempre tenha certeza de que você cobre suas apostas.

Se você está otimista, retire um pouco de dinheiro de qualquer forma.

Se você está pessimista, certifique-se de que ainda tem alguma exposição ao mercado.

Lembre-se de que você pode sempre estar errado.

Insane volume on some of these small-cap Abstract NFT collections.

Pengztracted with 736 ETH (!) volume in the last 24 hours, more than Pudgy Penguins, CryptoPunks and BAYC combined.

5 of the top 10 most traded NFT projects are currently on Abstract - I don’t think we ever saw something like this for any other EVM L2.

The market cap of most of these collections is still relatively low, as is the number of holders, might be an indicator that the core Abstract community is driving most of this volume.

Is it Abstract NFT szn? Do you hold any?

A lot of people have told me this week that they feel like their time to "make it" in crypto is running out.

BTC is running up to prices where you can't "get rich" from it if you have a small portfolio right now.

Most alts are still a long way from ATHs, and it’s uncertain if they ever reach them.

The memecoin & NFT space it not in "get rich" territory right now.

But I think it's more nuanced than that and that time is by no means running out.

There will always be opportunities to build a portfolio from nothing.

Just look at InfoFi in the last few weeks or the success of the Virtuals ecosystem as a top AI launchpad.

And these two will not be the last big metas in crypto.

In the last four years, I've seen people "make it" in all sorts of metas: NFTs, memecoins, gaming, SocialFi, AI, hell even spamming tickers (remember Portalcoin?).

People with completely different skill sets and interests.

You have time.

Most people here don't reach their goals because they want it "too fast" and look for shortcuts (most of which are -EV).

Stick around long enough and you will come across countless opportunities to change your life in crypto

Gm, happy ATH day!

Bitcoin ATH but nobody noticed

Competition between platforms in crypto is always good for the end user.

More incentives, more rewards as different teams fight for the #1 spot.

I don't know if Kaito yaps (big lead atm), Cookie3 snaps (shiny new thing) or one of the smaller ones (Wallchain quacks, Fantasy clout etc) will win - but I do know one thing:

Creators and users will eat.

Blur attacked Opensea back then, unlocking tens of millions of dollars in airdrops.

Boop attacked Pumpfun, dropping free money to users.

Kaito, Cookie3, Fantasy Top, they all need creators and eyeballs - and these flow to the best tech and the biggest rewards.

Which one is your favorite so far?

Analytics platform Cookie3 just launched a new InfoFi product called "snaps".

Kaito yaps, Fantasy clout, and now Cookie3 snaps.

Key differences to Kaito:

1) All projects can be added (no need to pay for listing).

2) Decentralized rewards system (anyone can upload rewards).

Reply below for invite link (I have ten left).

InfoFi szn

Ethereum is the NFT chain.

If you look at the trading volume, there is no second best for digital collectibles.

And that's not even taking into account other EVM chains

It’s the golden age of being a creator in Web3.

Maybe not the golden age of content.

But the golden age of creators

Kaito Genesis NFTs and $KAITO are up today.

One reason for this are the new ecosystem airdrops that have been announced.

- Infinex has committed 200M µPatrons to the ecosystem.

- Soul Protocol allocates 0.5% of their 100M $SO supply.

- Novastro and Newton offer 0.25% of their $NOVAS and $NEWT supply respectively.

This does not include the ongoing Virtuals Virgen Points that stakers and NFT holders currently receive daily.

With the huge success of the Virtuals ecosystem at the moment (the recent $ARBUS launch did a 60x), this is another major reward for holders.

Together, all this should almost double the Kaito holder TVD ("total value distributed"), from $4.7M USD to $8M USD

In no other industry can you go from 0 to 1 as quickly as in crypto

There's a trend of every chain having their headline Milady/Remilio NFT project.

A lot of people active in the ecosystems are adopting them as pfps, we've seen it on Hyperliquid with Hypios, we're seeing it on a lot of L2s, most recently on Abstract:

Dreamilio did by far the most volume on Abstract this week, a lot of Abstract creators changed their pfps.

On Hyperliquid we saw a lot of airdrops and other opportunities available to Hypios, it's possible we could see something similar on Abstract.

Could be interesting, especially now that more eyes are on token launches/memes on Abstract in recent weeks.

Only caveat: Dev holds 42% of the supply atm, so would get 42% of all airdrops lol

My crypto portfolio allocation at the moment:

- 35% BTC.

- 35% ETH (including NFTs).

- 20% Altcoins (nine, including $KAITO).

- 5% SOL.

- 5% Stablecoins (mainly USDC)

Recently I reached a big, long-standing milestone of mine, but I didn't feel anything.

Instead, my mind immediately went "okay but that’s not enough, the REAL milestone is THIS".

And I'm pretty sure the same thing will happen again once I reach the new one.

That's probably also one of the reasons why people who have really "made it" in crypto can't just leave and sail off into the sunset (and end up giving a big chunk of their money back to the market).

Goals are like mirages. The closer you get to them, the further away they get.

"This is cool, but there could be MORE".

Ever experienced something like this? Weird feeling

Good to see a profitable grail NFT flip again.

In the recent past, most flips (even if profit in ETH terms) were done for a big USD loss.

However, today's $1.1M sale of a zombie CryptoPunk was the opposite:

Bought for 420 ETH in September 2022 when ETH was trading at $1,600 USD.

Sold now for 440 ETH with ETH at $2,500 USD.

"Only" +20 ETH, but a whopping +500k USD in USD value.

W-flip, congrats to seller and buyer

Having the right people around you can be life-changing.

That's why NFT communities can be so powerful.

Having something that signals a common interest (or a common bag) can be a very good start to building a relationship

Being "early" doesn't necessarily mean you have to be there from the beginning.

I didn't mint CryptoPunks during the NFT run (I wasn't super early), but I was early enough in 2021 to ride the wave.

Sure, the disproportionate gains come to those who are super early, but as long as you're EARLIER than the majority of people, you can still win.

I see a lot of people ignore certain metas because they feel they are no longer early.

It's good not to get caught up in the FOMO and avoid being exit liquidity, but a lot of times we underestimate how early we can still be in the grand scheme of things.

That’s true for certain, smaller metas and crypto in general
