It's a day that end in "y", and a bunch of accounts with GAN-generated face pics are having "conversations" with each other about a game called "TheUnfettered" that apparently involves both NFTs and the Metaverse. #FridayShenaniGANs

These accounts are part of a network of 23 accounts with GAN-generated profile pics that (at least for the last year) tweet exclusively via the Twitter Web App. Most were created August 2020 or later, but six were made in 2011 and have old tweets sent via a variety of apps.
Unmodified GAN-generated face pics (at least so far) have the telltale trait that the major facial features are in the same position on every image. This becomes evident when we blend the profile images of the 23 accounts in the network.
This network's content is extremely repetitive. The most frequently repeated tweets (and the most recent) promote a game called "TheUnfettered" which evidently involves both NFTs and the metaverse.
TheUnfettered is not the first project promoted by this spammy group of accounts. They previously promoted an NFT project called "Umetaworld" as well as a crypto token called MarsX that will (according to some random blog post) be used on Mars after it is colonized by Elon Musk.
H/T @EJGibney for the lead.
