Anyone else think @doodles and mutant @BoredApeYC are an absolute steal at these prices! Way I see it is if you are into NFTs and here to stay, you will want to own at least one of these legendary pieces! Will always be culturally relevant! How can you think of NFTs and not be reminded of @doodles and @BoredApeYC Supply shock is imminent! Welcome in next round of diamond hands! 🤙🏽
Before I am liquidated. Thank you all, thank you for the wonderful years I was able to experience with you.
It looks like everything is coming to an end. We have touched the bottom and yet we continue to go down. I'm going back to selling drugs and robbing people.
There are 273,000 NFT projects.
Only 6,000 (2.3%) show any trading activity within 0–90 days.
That means 97.7% are effectively dead.
Most people are in at least 10 projects.
If you’re expecting all ten of your projects to land in that 2.3%, and you were just guessing or picking them out of a hat, your odds would be about 1 in 16 quadrillion.
To put that in perspective, you’ve got a better chance of being struck by lightning twice, on your birthday.
So if your NFT project is above mint, and the founders are still showing up and putting in the work, cut them some slack.
They’re fighting against the odds.
BUT…
The longer they stick around and keep building, the better their chances of surviving into the future.
Onwards and upwards.
It's been under works for a while now but combining strengths to push both projects ahead is the way. Tenset's tech and Redacted's network and runway brings in endless possibilities.

In the same way the NFTs aren't for everyone, neither are telegram stickers, but as someone in crypto who spends ALOT of time on TG, getting to use these stickers, and the one of ME is awesome.
Along with the billion people who use TG every month 😏
2021/2022 NFT market will never be beaten, but 2025 hasn't been that bad tbh.
I know most will probably disagree, but back in 2021/2022 was a complete circus.
Easy to make money, but also easier to get rugged and grinding for WL spots was a full-time job itself.
Also filled with fake promises of roadmaps, metaverses (lol), utility, etc.
Now look at what's left standing:
Pudgy Penguins, Azuki, Clayno, Doodles, Moonbirds, Rekt, and many more who are building real sh*t.
Now it's about who can execute, and there ain't the room for fake promises like before.
Feels like the market has matured a lot more, and personally, I prefer it.
This is great for the future sustainability and growth of the best brands!
Either way, we're just getting started.
NFTs ran last cycle because $ETH ripped and the whole ecosystem went off.
Whales who stacked 500 ETH under $500 had no problem dropping 100 ETH on a BAYC or other NFTs, that ETH was cheap to them. When your cost basis is that low, spending 6 figures on a JPEG feels like dust.
Right now, ETH feels expensive. Most players don’t have that “free ETH” mindset anymore. This changes once ETH makes its run over $10,000.
We don’t see a real NFT season until it's time for alts. Look at most alts, they are around FTX levels, why would our NFTs be at ATHs? The ecosystem will heat up soon with the liquidity cycle. Then ETH will FEEL "cheap" again.... not WHEN it's cheap.
Until then, I’m just staying patient, stacking when I can, and waiting for that wave of liquidity. Stay calm, cool, and collected.

I have so much empathy for the top NFT founders. They are the ones who stayed, 4+ years after mint when they could have walked away with millions.
Royalties to 0, insane $$$ given in airdrops, and execution at a higher level than when they started.
Most of the people that made the most, made the most because they sold and left. The people that I know who roundtripped many a houses were because they didnt want to sell on friends, but that was their decision.
The past is the past and that’s the reality of it. I think there’s a bright future for the best NFTs, but you really have to pivot to a long term mindset. See what is in front of you.
