Metaversal is a Bankless newsletter for weekly level-ups on NFTs, virtual worlds, & collectibles


Dear Bankless Nation,

To say the least, 2022 has been a wild year for the cryptoeconomy. 

And while we might be in the throes of a crypto and NFT bear market in various regards, in other ways NFT activity is picking up like never before at this year’s end. 

For example: 

  • Blur is gaining market share

  • Music NFT mints are on the rise

  • Solana NFT trading is bear-resistant

  • Tezos NFT volume is at ATH

  • Web3 profiles are booming on Lens 

And these happenings are just scratching the surface of NFT advances right now. 

People lately ask, “what’s the difference between this bear and the last?” 

One quick answer? There are hundreds of compelling NFT projects to experience firsthand this time around compared to only a few last time. 

That definitely counts for something as the NFT ecosystem is now expanding in all directions faster than ever before, bear or bull.  

Whatever happens next, let’s focus on recent NFT news and catch you up on all the latest headlines for this weekly recap. Thanks for reading everyone ✌️
