This year's fourth NFT NYC has always been an annual event for the industry. This year, it is expected that there will be 1,500 speakers, more than 14,000 people will participate, and there will be countless conference talks, speech discussions, peripheral activities...etc. in seven different venues in the heart of New York City simultaneously.

The artistic diversity of NFT itself, the combination of cultural and social issues, have made it the most colorful and lively exhibition in the cryptocurrency circle, known as the Superbowl of the NFT space (Super Cup in the NFT world), Crypto Coachella Festival (crypto World's Coachella Music Festival). After the third session last year, it even led to a wave of NFT gains. Therefore, this year coincides with the bear market of cryptocurrencies falling and falling. Everyone especially hopes that this lively exhibition can keep each other warm and bring some exciting (profitable) ) news, usually those who come to the site also have the opportunity to get some free airdrop rewards.

What are blue chip NFTs doing?

The first thing that cannot be missed is, of course, the blue-chip projects in NFTs. After all, these most famous ones are usually the ones who have the most opportunity to spend money on publicity.

ApeFest

The most anticipated off-site event in the entire NFT NYC can be said to be the ApeFest event of the big blue-chip NFT "Boring Monkey Yacht Club (BAYC)". Four days in a row, limited to holders, live performances by big bands, open-air bar, free food, limited merchandise sales.... Just being able to enter the ApeFest venue in front of NFT enthusiasts from all over the world is enough to make the holder's sense of honor explode.

There are also a variety of cool exclusive peripherals, which will make the holders of the event excited.

It is also worth mentioning that Yuga Labs , the company behind BAYC, announced that it has used a new APP "TokenProof" to send ApeFest tickets and control the venue personnel. Only holders of BAYC and MAYC can enter and exit. Personally, I have used several methods that are not very easy to use because of the physical empowerment of NFT exchange (such as NFT exchange for department store discount coupons, restaurant on-site exchange discounts, etc.), so I am very curious about the use of this APP.

Doodles

Doodles , also a top blue-chip project, released a new trailer for the premiere of "Doodles 2 NFT" in addition to parties and shops during the event. The new plan immediately sparked discussion and buying, and the trading volume on Opensea immediately surged that day.

Doodles trade suddenly soars

In addition, holders who have pre-registered can go to The Genesis Factory to buy a physical Genesis Box for $123USD, which seems to be a wearable device, and is related to the new project Doodles 2, guess it will be related to VR/ AR-related applications.

CryptoPunks

The original blue-chip CryptoPunks experienced a sudden surge in trading volume two days before the start of the NFT NYC event. Therefore, it is rumored that there may be positive news in the event in these days, but it is only a rumor, and no new news has been announced so far.

AZUKI

The Japanese-style NFT " Azuki ", which has always been highly discussed, will of course not be absent from this event. A series of activities with the theme of " Enter The Alley " have been launched. Summer celebration. Although there is no particular ups and downs in the transaction volume, the event site is also full of popularity.

Cool Cats

The cute cat NFT Cool Cats held a large-scale exhibition this time, which was planned to be a physical immersive playground called "Cooltopia". In addition to being open to all Cool Cats holders, other people are also open to make an appointment to enter the venue, which is completely free (holders have other benefits).

There are many small games in the exhibition hall to collect points, and the points can be exchanged for commodities. It looks very suitable for big friends and children to have fun together with their children~

In addition to the screening, the recently popular Free Mint project Goblintown ( goblintown ) will of course also participate: "Goblin Burger Food Truck" appeared outside ApeFest. It has been rumored that the Goblin project is dominated by Yuga Labs, although it was finally confirmed that it is not, but it seems that the relationship between the two projects is quite good.

Curious about the taste of Goblin Burgers...

The Taiwan NFT project that participated in the grand event

How can Taiwan be absent from such a grand world-class event! This time, many founders of the blockchain industry came to participate, and it would be good to write two projects that I have lurking in their Discord.

Elysium Shell

The " Elysium Shell " project team, oriented by the art lovers and creator community, also went to the venue to leave its mark.

And on the afternoon of 6/24 at the Superchief Gallery. Looking forward to next year, Bliss can officially enter the NFT NYC 2023 and hold a big event there.

Elysium Shell: Invading Reality NYC

Lootex

Lootex , the first blockchain virtual treasure auction venue in Taiwan, also went to New York, and held free NFT giveaways and mission airdrops that people can participate in even if they are not in New York. NFTs are so pretty, I went to Mint right away.

star participation

In addition to the luxury concert cast on ApeFest LCD Soundsystem , Questlove , Haim , Lil Baby , Timbaland , The Roots ...

The well-known World of Women NFT (WoW) also made a surprise announcement on Twitter that superstar Madonna will perform at the party to celebrate Pride Month.

Madonna has always been an NFT advocate, in addition to holding WoW, she also holds BAYC.



The above is the content of this week. I don’t know if you can’t wait to be there in New York like me. I also hope that there will be more Taiwanese projects participating in the exhibition next year, and then hold super powerful live events to let the world see Taiwan with your strength. Or Taiwan can also come and host an Asian NFT event, which is great! I don't know what you have in mind? Feel free to share with me in the comments below.
