Get The NFT price

Following the previous message, why do people born in the 60s and 70s not understand Pop Mart, and even some born in the 80s and 90s don't get it? It's because everyone is still thinking in terms of the "production-consumption" logic. Just like the previous NFT boom, a group of OGs in the circle couldn't understand or appreciate it, thus missing out on investment opportunities. However, looking back, it was precisely NFTs that attracted a large number of newcomers to the circle, such as today's top female KOLs who are active in the forefront, most of whom entered during that time. The essence of the entire crypto industry is actually the attention economy under the currency bubble. Today's meme craze is the culmination of all this. In a world of "overcapacity," we don't need practical value; we just need to drive emotions. The so-called "everything can be hyped."

Nice comparisons for the IP narrative, @campnetworkxyz had their raise announcement yesterday (I'm an investor), pretty interested in seeing how this entire sector plays out. I think that it's maybe a bit early for it overall but if we see more creators / production come onchain, could be very valuable. Eyes on Camp and $IP

IP Blockchains comparison Hot off @campnetworkxyz's raise yesterday, I stacked it up against @StoryProtocol and @soneium and identified each project’s differentiating below. In short: @StoryProtocol ($IP) is a bespoke IP operating system + design/content is a smart-contract-addressable LEGO brick --> DeFi + IP = IPFi. @campnetworkxyz --> provenance as the “fuel” for the agent economy. Their pitch is that nobody will run AI models without rights-cleared data. @soneium is backed by @Sony's decades of IP and mainstream consumer reach (through gaming and music) --> rather than inventing new licensing rails, it prioritises friction-free NFT & gaming exp on an @Optimism L2.

gDOT, While public hype moves in cycles, the underlying technology, @Polkadot has steadily evolved, bringing Web3 closer to mainstream adoption across industries far beyond finance. Polkadot’s technology is designed to enhance real-world use cases beyond finance, such as: decentralized identifiers (DID), decentralized storage, and on-chain gaming. Here’s how and related projects 🧵👇🏻 At the heart of Polkadot is the #RelayChain, which provides shared security for all parachains connected to it. This means that individual parachains, whether they are focused on identity systems, storage solutions, or games, do not need to establish their own separate networks of validators. Instead, they automatically inherit the security of the entire #Polkadot network. As a result, new projects can launch quickly and securely without the immense overhead typically required to secure a blockchain. In gaming, #Polkadot’s Cross-Consensus Messaging (XCM) makes it possible for in-game assets like #NFTs to move seamlessly between different titles or platforms, unlocking the potential for open, connected game economies. Because #XCM system enables different parachains to communicate directly and trustlessly. For example, a #DID created on one parachain can be verified and used on another without the need for centralized bridges or wrapping mechanisms. Here are potential projects on these sectors: [1] Gaming ✨ @playmythical (NFL Rivals, Pudgy Party, upcoming FIFA Rivals): Creating mobile-first, user-owned gaming economies at scale. ✨ @AjunaNetwork: Providing high-fidelity, decentralized gaming engines built natively on Polkadot. ✨ @Unique_NFTchain: Developing infrastructure for NFT-powered gaming, with composable in-game assets that work across ecosystems. [2] Decentralized storage @CrustNetwork: A parachain on Polkadot that provides decentralized cloud storage solutions. It leverages IPFS and blockchain incentives to ensure data is stored reliably across distributed nodes. @peaq: Powering decentralized mobility networks (vehicles, drones) where users own the infrastructure — not centralized corporations. [3] Decentralized Identity (DID) @Kiltprotocol: KILT allows users to create, manage, and present verifiable credentials without relying on centralized providers. Users own their identities (self-sovereign identity). @origin_trail: Building verifiable decentralized knowledge graphs (DKG) to power AI applications with authenticated, non-tamperable data. a decentralized identity aggregation protocol. It lets users securely manage multiple identities across blockchains and provides identity-based services like credit and reputation scoring. @OntologyNetwork: is constructing the infrastructure to give trusted access to Web3, allowing consumers and organizations to be certain that regulatory compliant digital identity solutions prioritize users and their privacy.
