Los Muertos is, according to the creators, “…more than your standard NFT project. By owning an NFT in the Los Muertos collection, you become a Muerto. Los Muertos World is built to serve its members. We are a highly experienced team with wildly ambitious goals. We are upcoming digital artists, we are web3 nerds, we are community builders.” It is a rich and colorful collection from dedicated artists who have a lot to give to the industry. We took a look at the collection, and in this article we will be detailing some of the aspects of this project.

The Scoop

All of the Muertos NFTs is algorithmically generated using a process of combining many, many unique and hand-drawn traits that combine different trait categories. There are a small number, 12 in fact, legendary NFTs that you can purchase and several other types of traits and NFTs in the collection. When a persona buys an NFT from the Los Muertos Collection, they own the NFT and the art that is connected with the NFT. A person’s ownership is instantiated on the Ethereum Network and the company states that they never make any attempts to change or remove the ownership rights of the holder.

Volume of NFTs is Down Nearly 100% From Beginning of Year

It should come as no surprise that the volume of NFTs has plummeted since the beginning of the year. But what you may not know is just how bad it really is, or how bad it may yet become if things don’t turn around soon. Certainly, and we’ve written before about this, there are bright spots that suggest the valuations will turn around. However, we aren’t entirely convinced that things are going to turn around anytime soon. In this article, we will be taking a closer look at the recent assessments of the market offered by some of the sources we have.

The Scoop

Ironically, in spite of the monumental and historical decline in the valuations of NFT this year, the production and creation of new NFT projects hasn’t slowed down in proportion to the decline. This isn’t exactly a surprise considering the draw NFTs have in the overall market of entrepreneurs. What we mean is that many investors are trying to “buy the short” as it were.

They are trying to produce more NFTs that may grant them a lot of profits once, and IF, things turn around for the market. For example, as many as 15 new collections A DAY are being added to OpenSea and other platforms, and this marks a stabilizing trend in a market that is seeing an incredible decline.

The News Take

“Through the uptrends and downtrends, OpenSea has maintained its lead when it comes to NFT trading. It has made its mark as the first major NFT trading platform in the space and as such remains highly favored among investors. The addition of other networks such as the Solana network has also helped grow its popularity in the market. This does not mean that the marketplace is without competition though.” -Bitcoinist

Certain NFTs Are Lifting The Gloom Despite the “Winter”

Lately, there has been a not-so-subtle downturn in the profitability of NFTs and crypto-currencies, and everyone is watching. However, there is some good news circulating around the subject. If fact, NFTs, or a certain type in any case, are seeing a turn around. Specifically, a type of NFT called generative NFTs seem to be braced from the worst of the frost that has bitten the entire market. In this article, we will be describing the nature of the generative NFTs and how they have actually braced themselves against the downturn.

The Scoop

The sales of “generative art” have skyrocketed over the past few weeks, and several prominent collections have seen an even larger break than they enjoyed previously. An important factor in the recent uptick in sales for some of these collections was William Mapan’s Anticyclone, which minted initially at 0.75 ETH when it was revealed on the Art Blocks platform on Apr. 29.

The rock bottom price for one of the 800 generative art piece NFTs steadily rose through the month of June, and the lowest artifacts are now priced at 5.4 ETH on the secondary market. In terms of the dollars, the floor price has risen from around $2,100 to $5,800.

The News Take

“Anticyclone lives on the Ethereum blockchain, but like many other generative artists, Mapan got his start in the NFT space on Tezos. Following the rise in popularity of Anticyclone, Mapan’s Dragons collection saw a parabolic price rise on fxhash, Tezos’ equivalent to Art Blocks. The cheapest Dragons are currently priced at around 1,700 XTZ after trading under 100 XTZ at the start of the year.” -Crypto Briefing

NFTs Are Being Scrutinized by Euro Union Lawmakers Today

NFT trading platforms are, and always have been, under a high degree of scrutiny, but today they even more criticism under new EU legislation. Members of the European Parliament issued a litany of new pieces of law that may place NFT platforms in jeopardy this weekend. Politicians and legislators belonging to the Green Party as well as the new socialist representatives are in high spirits concerning the state of crypto wallets and NFT markets, mostly because they see these new legislative acts as a win for the restrictive policy makers.

The Scoop

The Green Party and their representatives Ernest Urtasun and Kira Marie Peter-Hansen, have proposed an amendment to certain policies concerning crypto and NFTs. Additionally, socialists Aurore Lalucq and Csaba Molnár are interested in making NFT platforms “obliged entities” under EU money laundering law, according to the document dated June 22.

What this means for big companies like OpenSea and Crypto.com is that they might have to balance and reexamine the risk of illicit financial instruments for which they provide a platform.

Today we put order in the Wild West of crypto assets and set clear rules for a harmonized market. The recent fall in the value of digital currencies shows us how highly risky and speculative they are and that it is fundamental to act. “ -Stephen Berger
