The NFT way 🛤️
Coinbase NFT is coming, NFTX launches a Fuse pool, Zora opens its protocol, & more!
Metaversal is a Bankless newsletter for weekly level-ups on NFTs, virtual worlds, & collectibles
Dear Bankless Nation,
There’s much to do, and much to say. One thing’s clear, though.
We’re leaving the old ways.
Yet the “new” — or rather the range of futures that can arrive through the many open paths in front of us — is extremely moldable and in flux. We should never lose sight of that, meaning we can’t get complacent.
Keep building, keep dreaming, keep educating. That’s the NFT way.
