  • Last week, The SHINY team announced a new Shiny Feather perk! Shiny is partnering with GM, LFG which is an NFT portfolio tracker. Some features include your true profit/loss, track any wallet and stats by wallet, collection, and token. You can view the read the full set of features and read about the partnership here.
  • Big week for the Yuga Labs team starting by announcing a mysterious website that requires people to doxx themselves to have access to it. The frustration for most doesn't seem to come from the fact that people need to doxx themselves, but more so that they don't even know what they are doxxing themselves for.
  • But the biggest news (at least in NFT land) had to be that Yuga Labs announced the acquisition of the CryptoPunks and Meebits collections from LarvaLabs.
  • Stripe now supports crypto businesses: exchanges, on-ramps, wallets, and NFT marketplaces. Not just pay-ins but payouts, KYC and identity verification, fraud prevention, and lots more.
  • LimeWire is back as an NFT marketplace and hopefully with a whole lot less malware.
  • @al3xs put together a bear market shopping list that he shared. This prompted @cf to also share some additional projects that he believes are good buys and other Shiny members as well. The updated shopping list was this one.
  • The Yuga Labs acquisitions stirred up conversation in the Shiny Discord. @Practical Principles expressed surprise as Punks felt like they were in a league of their own. @Kallaway shared their opinion that Punk were devalued by the acquisition. @Sokyu felt Punks and Meebits weren't doing anything to warrant the acquisition.
  • There was lots of discussion on the GNSS mint, especially since it's officially supported by RTFKT. Although the mint was pretty expensive (0.33ETH), the floor sits at a nice 0.94ETH right now.
  • A bunch of shiny members are excited for the Muri mint that happened this weekend. The floor price is currently at 0.493ETH. @c2 seems pretty bullish on haus in general and since Muri is a project from haus, by extension he's confident in the project.
  • @jalil's PunkScape is preparing lo launch Chapter II.
  • @DiLoco.eth is building a token-gated form builder.
  • @JayMac's Arkivists NFT project has partnered with Bad Bunnies.
  • @atareh.eth is launching a newsletter.
  • @Stringcheese just launched their new NFT project's Twitter account.
  • @Binkie has gone live with his first nocode website, helped by @trist.
  • @tomjohn | Blergs is previewing new features for Basedash that would allow it to be used as an NFT marketplace for power users.
  • @gilcarlos is starting a daily Twitter thread on interesting things in crypto.
  • @jomapi started a Twitter community for Designers Who Brand.
  • @Ncls and @jess✨- @jkfinger gave us a preview of their new tool for creating Discord bots for Allowlists, and other functions, during the Shiny Community Call.
  • @charliew was a guest on Minted Podcast.
  • @Practical Principles is on a mission, to improve the copywriting in web3!
  • If you missed the SHINY Community Call, you can catch the recording here. @Ncls and @jess✨- @jkfinger shared their latest Discord bot.
