Ninja’s Super Cool World is Up 0.3 ETH and Counting. Though it does not necessarily represent a turn-around in the decline of NFTs overall, nor a particularly astronomical rise for this collection, it is good news. Now, in this article we will be discussing some of the things that may have contributed to this rise in price, and positive vector for this collection, as well as what it may mean for other collections. Of course, we have written more extensively on the subject of the NFT markets, but this is a kind of specific analysis.

Ninja’s Super Cool World

This particular collection was minted in 2019 by Nina Chanel Abney. Abney was born in 1982, Chicago, IL, and currently lives and works in New York. She has many projects and accolades to her credit, and this is one of her more profitable and notable collections.

The collection itself consists of a little over 5,000 pieces and feature a wide range of individual NFTs and combinations. Abney’s work is featured in collections all across the globe, at such fine establishments as The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), The Whitney Museum of American Art, The Brooklyn Museum, The Rubell Family Collection, and The Art Gallery of New South Wales.

“Nina Chanel’s Super Cool World is a collection of 5,080 NFTs (non-fungible tokens) that are made up of hundreds of traits designed by Nina Chanel Abney that reflect her frenetic collage-like approach to visual media. Super Cool World is a generative PFP-based project created as an alternative way to interact with fans and collectors. Nina Chanel Abney has completely embraced NFT as a new medium and is interested in the endless potential and capabilities of NFTs that allow for a much deeper engagement with one’s community.” -The Website

This NFT Collection Explodes in Value Over the Weekend

The oddly and aptly named NFT collection called CryptoDickButts is seeing an incredible increase in value. At this point, some of these collections, by analysis of the name alone, are vehicles for immense wealth shifts for the people who program them. Are they making fun of us, or do they know something we don’t? Let’s find out in the article we have prepared for you today. We want to detail some of the reasons this increase in the CryptoDickButts value has occurred, and ask the question, why should you care?

The News

Recently, if you’ve been looking into NFTs, you’ve likely seen that the markets are down. Now, whatever reasons there are for this, we want to look into how you should evaluate the pros and cons of purchasing NFTs. Just because one NFT in a wide collection of NFTs, and therefore boosts the overall value of the collection, doesn’t necessarily mean that you should invest.

Interest

“NFT gives artists and authors the opportunity to monetize their work. All creative industry enthusiasts need is to join the digital ecosystem, create their own product, and put it up for auction. Thousands of creative people no longer need to rely on galleries or auction houses which involve paying margins. They can use the BTC ecosystem to publish a variety of files — musical works, paintings, collages, animations, etc. Furthermore, any artist can do this without intermediaries by sending the work as NFT directly to the art collector. Users can program licensing fees to earn money each time their product is sold to a new owner.” -Yahoo Finance

What Makes NFTs Secure, and Will This Change For the Better?

We’ve written before about the security features that are inherent in the NFT world. We’ve even written about the nature of dynamic NFTs, which are even more interesting from a coding perspective. Yesterday, we detailed the team up between two companies that have reimagined the nature of NFT security. Today, we want to talk a little about what makes this security so important, and examine whether or not this will be the case in the future of NFTs. Even with the recent (some say temporary) decline of the NFT markets, the security aspect is still interesting.

The Prediction

Security for these assets is based on the code that makes them unique. When a buyer acquires an NFT, he or she is given a spot on the blockchain that identifies them as the sole possessor of the code that identifies the actual NFT.

With dynamic NFTs, this is slightly different. The blockchain still preserves the record of the NFT and the original purchaser, but the base code, from the Metadata to the art itself, can be programmed to change. So, this means that the cataloguing information can change, and the search engines that categorize them will shuffle them around a bit. This can add a depth to the security aspect.

“There is a very uneven distribution, and a small number of whales controlling most of the value in the system. But from my point of view, this system is so young and we are only seeing the beginning of it. The Bitcoin market cap is now 40% of the total crypto market cap, and it’s been going down consistently. In the last year, you’ve seen the rise of so many new alternative layer ones, or second generation blockchains that use proof of stake. Crypto adoption is growing at an astonishing rate worldwide.” -Time

Sony Ent. Seems to Be Ambivalent About NFTs, or Are They?

Sony Entertainment has said precious little about NFTs and what they think of them. But recently, they have constructed and launched a poll asking people whether or not they would be interested in NFTs and digital assets. This seems to be a bit of a departure from the attitude they have displayed regarding the diverse markets of NFTs in the past. Just shortly after Sony launched PS Stars, the rewards program of which is not based on NFTs, they asked participants if they would indeed be interested in being compensated with NFTs instead.

The Prediction

It sounds to many analysts that Sony is hedging its bets regarding NFTs, largely because they be back on the rise after this quarter’s impressive downturn. Basically, what has happened in Sony’s poll launching is a kind of rescinding of their previous opinion or stance toward NFTS.

This may not exactly be the case, and some experts agree that this isn’t just a corporate realignment based on a a miscalculation. Anyway, what does this mean for NFTs and Sony in general? We don’t yet know, but it does seem to be something to be paying attention to for investors.
