Dear Bankless Nation,

One of my more popular articles from last year was a curated list of helpful NFT resources, Tools for NFT Summer. 

6 months have passed since then, though, and in that span many new developments and projects have arrived in the ecosystem. 

Accordingly, for today’s Metaversal I’ve curated a new slate of NFT resources that I think you should know about or take a closer look at. 

This won’t be a comprehensive list and some of the included projects aren’t necessarily new to the scene. What they all share in common, though, is putting varying kinds of compelling NFT powers at our fingertips!
