[1] Upcoming 12 August 2021 AEDT

Hello

Late post today (was a bit hectic) but I am here now. Didn't have time today to do the 'Significant Twitter Followers' column - but also I'm still trying to figure out how I want to tweak it moving forward. Any suggestions would be greatly

[2] appreciated.

On tonight's list we have 5 projects coming out tomorrow. I'm probably only going to address three properly - @AIA_NFT and @tarfishnft just don't excite me that much. In particular the former has too big of a difference between twitter and discord numbers for

@AIA_NFT [3] me to believe that there's big community supporting the project. The latter just doesn't interest me too much - but I've been wrong before.

@AIA_NFT [4] @DragonWineryNFT is something that has piqued my interest. Their pre-mint twitter and discord numbers are very healthy and their discord community is popping. The project confuses me a bit - some pieces are amazing and some are just alright. Regardless, I really like how

@DragonWineryNFT [5] alive the discord chat is. Their road map is a bit confusing (AI system to talk to your dragon??? and a PVP game coming out within two weeks of release). If the team can deliver on these that would be amazing. This aside, what piqued my interest is the community engagement

@DragonWineryNFT [6] the team has manufactured through a process of activities on Discord. Participating members get access to pre-sale via whitelisted addresses. I personally think great idea. I will be trying to get a few of these

[7] the BIG one I'm looking out for though is @JunkyardDogsNFT. With some pretty HOOGE numbers leading up to launch and circa 3000 members online in Discord 10 minutes ago, I think the project has quite a bit of potential.

@JunkyardDogsNFT [8] the art is ugly ... but in a good way??? Idk if that makes sense it kind of grows on you. I also really like the way the team has structured its release. Similar to the dragons, it has 888 dogs reserved for OG community members. The roadmap is also quite clear - with merch

@JunkyardDogsNFT [9] drops and airdrops to participating minters. There's also hints at random airdrops that'll give minters early access to a games room that they're developing. I think they also have a system for breeding your dogs in the works. All round I like the numbers, I like the roadmap,

@JunkyardDogsNFT [10] I like the vibe and I don't hate the art. What more could you want?

Last up is @DoodleDoodz. This was brought to my attention by a comment on one of my posts. I was a bit hesitant (and still am) after seeing the numbers (693 average across two platforms and ~60 members

@DoodleDoodz [11] online when I last checked), the high mint count and the previous issues the team had with another mint. This project is only getting a special mention because I really really like the art. Idk, maybe I'm artistically impaired but I think it's really really good.

@DoodleDoodz [12] If it was based on art alone I would most definitely mint this project. But the whole ethos of what I'm trying to do here (with these daily posts) is to show that community > everything else. If the community isn't there, it's very difficult for the project to succeed.

@DoodleDoodz [13] ESPECIALLY now. There are projects coming out from every corner at any given point in the day. Everything is taking off but only a few make it. If you look at this spreadsheet - over 50% of all projects listed are in the red. Some don't even have any buyers for minters to

@DoodleDoodz [14] sell to even if they wanted. I am not saying that @DoodleDoodz will suffer this fate. Heck, it might even do extremely well - the NFT space is crazy like that. But in all this craziness, I'm trying to stick to metrics that offer some semblance of normalcy.

@DoodleDoodz [15] I'll be looking at these on OS if @DoodleDoodz has healthy levels of organic community growth in the coming days. If it does, and even if the price is waaaay above mint price then, I'll be happy to pick them up rather than take the risk now.

[16] but then again, what do I know. You're reading a post from a guy that minted some ninjas because he watched naruto 10 years ago. Those ninjas are worth exactly z e r o right now.

[17] Overall - I'm going to be picking me up some @DragonWineryNFT and @JunkyardDogsNFT. The timing here in Australia will mean that I'm going to get exactly 0 sleep - but then again, the things you do to try and eventually afford a BAYC...

[18] thanks if you've read up to here. The growth I've been seeing on this account is crazy. I want you all to know that I appreciate each and every one of you. I read all the comments (even if I don't respond). Wish everyone nothing but the best 😄😄. Cya
