This operation is definitely a spotlight on NFTs and we see that successful collections are gradually developing their own identity. More and more brands are effectively appropriating elements of Web3 in their communication, which: contribute to democratization.
However, it will also be possible to point out that with such news, the CryptoPunks are moving away from their original concept. These could originally be: claimed for free, but since then they have been a resounding success. Recently, one of the copies in the collection sold for $2.6 million.
If we can ask ourselves what the real value is behind the price of certain assets, note that in spite of everything it has the advantage attract influential people. For example, we can take the example of Snoop Dogg and Eminem, whose reach is helping to attract more and more people to the crypto ecosystem.

I timidly discovered the world of blockchain at the end of 2018 during my quest for financial freedom. Initially moderately invested, it was only two years later that I took the risk to bet everything on the movement that was taking shape at the time. Then I dedicate 2021 to training myself better to gain more knowledge and seriousness. As I often say, I still have a billion things to learn. And what I do know, I want to share with you.
