Bridging the gap between NFTs and real life!

Hey Frens, and welcome back to NFToday.

You guys have been incredible lately. NFToday is now up to a 37.2% open rate. From an analytical standpoint, that's incredibly difficult to achieve!

For reference, when I used to do email marketing for my past e-commerce stores, our emails would average around a 15% open rate, which is about industry standard.

I wanted to honestly thank you from the bottom of my heart; you're all making my writing dreams come true! I'm not crying; you are!

Now, on to the news!!!

🖼️ Americana's Great Physical NFT shift!

📈 SOL at a pivotal level...

🎨 Beeple messed up.

If you've been following me for some time, you may know that I'm a massive proponent of NFTs with real-world physical utility! Just four days ago, I wrote a twelve-tweet bullish thread analysis on how I think NFTs could revolutionize how physical real estate is transacted. 

Shortly after, Twitter's lovely algorithm directed me towards Jake Frey, the brilliant mind behind Americana, a new web3-focused startup focused on tokenizing physical collectibles.

For example, let's say you become the lucky owner of an authentic Vincent Van Gogh painting. With the help of Americana's innovative NFTA Universal Chip, your one-of-a-kind masterpiece can now live on the blockchain!

Essentially, the chip can be slapped on just about anything; once set up, the physical item becomes a fully transactable NFT. 

That's right,

• Real Estate

• Collectibles

• Automobiles

ANYTHING can be turned into an NFT.

My opinion...

I couldn't imagine the jokes the team Americana makes daily because if I was there, I wouldn't be able to stop saying stuff like, "hey, I just turned my bagel into an NFT."

I'll leave it at that! 😂 

Ethereum and Bitcoin had once again had a dull day, so I had to look at the next best thing, Solana!

Despite its recent 7-hour outage, Solana seems to be consolidating nicely, just above its $80 support level.

Holding this level is critically crucial as there are virtually no support levels until around $45.

Pray for SOL!

You probably know Beeple as the guy who sold his NFT collage for $69.3 million in 2021!

Beeple has quickly become one of Web3's most influential artists, most notably for his daily 1 of 1 art pieces he calls Everydays. 

To celebrate his fifteenth anniversary, Jimmy Fallon, being the NFT connoisseur he is, invited Beeple to join him for the tonight show! Yet, in the midst of everything, Beeple forgot to post his Everyday for the day. Despite his mistake, he still created and completed the day's piece. 

He had this to say on social media:

"so funny story, this picture was done earlier today live on the tonight show with jimmy fallon in about 25 minutes during the show and revealed just now on TV.

While watching the show hours later though, I FORGOT TO POST THE ACTUAL FUCKING EVERYDAY. I remembered at 12:05 and posted on Twitter right away but I did not post any everyday that day online. So this is TECHNICALLY the first day I have missed in over 15 years.

I have literally had recurring nightmares about missing an everyday and now this ‘nightmare scanario’ has finally happened and on this day of all days.

But you know what, as fucking pissed at myself as I am for missing posting it - it is what it is. We fuck up, I fucked up, that’s what humans do. But I will learn from this and keep pushing forward — beating yourself up over failures is not going to help. Take what you can, and move on."

All-in-all, Beeple is a fantastic artist; to say he cares is an understatement. Beeple's fans were quick to reassure him that he shouldn't worry.

Such a wholesome web3 community; keep up the great work, Beeple!

Today, I had my first walk with a full energy bar!

The thrill was just as existent as it was the day before yesterday.

I've found myself checking in on the app despite the fact that I can't do anything until my energy is fully recharged! 

In total, today I made 8.15 GST which translates to approximately $53.71

I then went on to repair and upgrade my sneaker to level 6, which cost 8.16 GST.
