Some brilliant data in this very comprehensive report.

The @nonfungibles team have done an excellent job over the past few years and it's epic to see them join forces with @latelier.

The tide is quite clearly rising.

Some of my favourite charts/info below. 👇

1/ NFTs: The Lay of The Land.

The NFT market is undeniably hot right now, the vast majority of record-breaking sales have happened within the last 30 days.

Millions of $ are changing hands daily across projects both old and new.

2/ Record engagement from high-profile figures with big audiences e.g. @mcuban, @MesutOzil1088, and even @lindsaylohan...

Crypto Art pioneer @beeple is back with the 1st ever purely digital art to be sold at the renowned auction house @ChristiesInc.

3/ At the base network level, we're seeing unprecedented dollar volumes. At the very peak of the CryptoKitties mania in late 2017, just over $2M changed hands in a 24 hour period.

On Valentines Day this past weekend, more than $6M was traded as NFTs on layer one alone. Image

As promised, a 13,000 word overview of why I think crypto is integral to the emergence of an Open Metaverse.

The essay just dropped on @master_the_meta.

📓Into The Void: Where Crypto Meets The Metaverse

TL;DR

👇👇👇

2/ Crypto is laying the foundations for a self-sovereign financial system, an open creator economy, and a universal digital representation and ownership layer via NFTs (non-fungible tokens).
3/ The Metaverse is coming; trends indicate our direction of travel. Our next great milestone as a networked species awaits us: 7B digital souls with the option to exist almost exclusively online and participate in a virtual economy with societal impact.

1/ Yesterday I pushed out a report covering the various angles of growth observed across the NFT ecosystem.

2020 was a monumental year for NFTs, and the stage is well and truly set for another record-setting year in 2021.

👇👇👇

2/ For those of you new to the topic, take a moment to familiarize with what non-fungible tokens are as well as how they might become a core driver of the evolution of online content.

Don't be afraid to let the imagination wander!
3/ Whilst data remains relatively fragmented, the numbers of active marketplace users is clearly growing with almost $90M in sales.

💰Largely driven by 4 major categories:

- Crypto Art (>$20M)
- Crypto Sandboxes/Virtual Worlds (>$16M)
- Video Games (>$15M)
- Collectibles ($16M)

1/ In yesterday's note, I covered the DeFi <> NFT symbiosis and explored how the two are mutually beneficial.

The 2020 DeFi summer drove gas fees to intolerable levels for many NFT activities. Whilst it seemed like a curse, it may have been a blessing...

2/ Some may argue that residual liquidity from a frothy market is what affored NFTs their moment in the sun.

The end of the DeFi boomed coincided with the highest volumes the NFT space had seen since 2017, before ending the year explosively with historic crypto art sales. Image
3/ Early experiments showed a clear synergy between the two.

On the one hand, DeFi can provide a dramatic expansion of utility, functionality, and access to more complex financial infrastructure through fractionalization for the NFT ecosystem.

1/ Today I pushed out a note to @Delphi_Digital subscribers covering the monumental milestone that this past weekend marked for #cryptoart with @beeple's @niftygateway drop.

delphidigital.io/reports/beeple…
2/ Legendary artist @beeple has spent the last 13 years of his life producing an artwork every single day. 4976 consecutive days of dedication eventually brought him to crypto art.

In just 48 hours, he sold over $3.5 million of digital artwork. 🤯
3/ There were three offerings:

- Open editions: ($969 fixed price, unlimited number, 5 minutes only)

- Limited editions: ($1 fixed price, 100 copies, unlimited time but sold out instantly)

- Single editions: (21 unique pieces sold in successive auctions over the weekend)

This is the way the world ends. Not with a bang but a Google error message.
Could be something serious up. Using incognito to try and log in again gives no record of existing accounts...

Imagine Google's data centres got wiped lmao
