Closing Thoughts
Big moves by NFT Now to close The Gateway: Korea. Dropping “NFT” in a shift to Now Media seems like a good move relative where things are trending (digital ownership alive and well, acronym not so much). Interested to see what they have in store for tokenized podcasts. Seems likely they have a plan to repeat (and sell?)
Just before this report was finalized the big DrifterShoots sale came through on SuperRare. This is an artwork originally minted January, 2022 and sold for 44 ETH, now re-selling for 12.5 ETH. Whether it ends up being the best example or not, 1/1 secondary opportunities are rampant in this market condition. At a smaller level, a 2020 Nifty Gateway Twisted Vacancy 1/1 also re-sold. Keep your eyes open.
