Let’s face it: the NFT space moves very fast. Considering how quickly things can change in the metaverse, a week in NFTs might as well be a month IRL.
Don’t get us wrong – the more people entered the room, the merrier. But due to the constant influx of great art and ideas, it’s getting harder and harder to keep up with all the news, launches and general happenings.
Well, you can leave the days of endless Twitter and Discord scrolling behind you as we put together a weekly list of upcoming NFT drops you definitely don’t want to miss. Here’s what to watch out for this week.
