Metaversal is a Bankless newsletter for weekly level-ups on NFTs, virtual worlds, & collectibles
Dear Bankless Nation,
Twitter. Meta and Instagram. Walmart. The world’s biggest brands are starting to move into NFTs in big ways.
These sorts of major pivots are inevitable as NFTs continue to make serious inroads into the mainstream.
Yet at the same time, let’s never ever forget how we got here. And that’s by innovating for ourselves grassroots style with DIY decentralized infrastructure. Infra that for many has provided direct avenues of escape from the various suffocations of corporate hegemonies.
So yeah, us NFTers are cultural trendsetters, and the rest of the world’s just now catching up. We’re not crusading to make everyone use NFTs; rather, in the not so distant future it’ll just be silly not to.
