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


Dear Bankless Nation, 

In 2018, it was a crypto bear market and there were barely any NFT projects to use. 

Four years later, crypto and NFT prices may be way down from their previous ATHs again amid this bear, yet this time around there are a ton of different things you can do around NFTs. 

For example, now you can readily create a free Halloween-themed open edition via Manifold or Zora. Or start your first web3 social media account on Lenster. Or back up your NFTs, trade NFT options, DIY your own PFP collection, and so much more!

Diving into and experimenting with these sorts of NFT quests is the best thing you can do to stay sharp on the frontiers of our ecosystem in the  years ahead. Try, try, try. In the meantime, have a great weekend everyone! Thanks kindly for reading ✌️
