Our Blue Chip NFTs 101 series is now approaching six months in the making, and we’ve taken healthy deep dives into some of the biggest NFT projects in the market; while everyone has heard of Bored Apes and CryptoPunks, we’ve taken the time to provide hefty due diligence around other major blue chip projects like World of Women, Art Blocks, DeGods, Moonbirds, and more.
We’re back in the mix and looking to keep you ahead of the curb as an upcoming mint for NFT project ‘y00ts’ has generated so much traction and talk, we suspect it could easily be a blue chip in the making. It’s invite-only whitelist thus far, which brings all the pros and cons of exclusivity, and most notably the hype and anticipation that limited access can bring. Let’s take a deep dive into y00ts and what we’ve seen thus far.
From DeGods To y00ts: Is Blue Chip Status Really That Easy?
It’s been over three months since we published our Blue Chip NFTs 101 piece on DeGods, the standout Solana project that really took Solana-based NFTs over the top and helped surge the blockchain into the firm #2 position in the NFT marketplace, second to only Ethereum. At the time, DeGods were commanding a floor price at roughly 200 SOL (roughly $15K with SOL prices at the time). Despite an ongoing bear market for NFTs, today the DeGods collection stands at nearly a 600 SOL floor, which at today’s SOL prices, equals almost $20K. Step aside, bear market, because DeGods have been enduring the storm.
Why do DeGods fit into the equation in this discussion? The team behind DeGods is largely that behind y00ts, with both projects spearheaded by increasingly popular NFT figure, Frank. We’ve taken the time to review DeGods at length, so let’s shift back to y00ts; is Frank simply a community mastermind who understands the secret sauce of NFT projects, or is DeGods the exception to the rule, with y00ts riding the hype train? Only time will tell, but in the meantime we can take an objective look at what has gotten so much excitement behind y00ts to carry it to where it is today. This year, DeGods have certainly exceeded many expectations, securing a firm position as the top Solana NFT project with few competitors even coming close.
Solana (SOL) has been showing real potential at being a top NFT blockchain; can y00ts help secure the blockchain's #2 spot, and even look to have Solana contest Ethereum in the NFT realm? | Source: SOL-USD on TradingView.com
