📊 Art Gobblers Find Instant Success After Halloween Launch

• On Oct. 31, Paradigm and Justin Roiland launched Art Gobblers. Justin Roiland is best known as the co-creator of Rick and Morty, an animated sitcom.
• On the first day of the launch, the project generated volumes of more than 4.7K ETH with a floor price of 10.6 ETH. Currently, the floor price sits at 13.9 ETH.
• Out of a total supply of 10K Art Gobblers, 2K were made available as a free mint to the project’s community. From this allocation, 300 were reserved for initial contributors.
• The project’s ecosystem begins with Blank Page NFTs. Artists can acquire these NFTs by paying GOO tokens and use them to mint their own drawings as 1/1 NFTs.
• Minted artwork can be gobbled by Art Gobblers. This transfers the ownership of the artwork to the Art Gobbler, which acts as an art gallery to display all gobbled artwork.
• Each Art Gobbler produces GOO tokens, which can be used to mint Blank Page NFTs and summon more Art Gobblers. The more GOO held, the faster each Art Gobbler will produce additional GOO.
• Each Art Gobbler also has a unique multiplier that factors into the amount of GOO produced by the Gobbler. This multiplier increases if a wallet holds multiple Gobblers.
• This has led to many NFT collectors teaming up via multi-signature wallets and DAOs to get a larger share of the ecosystem.  Currently, the largest group titled “gobbledeeznuts.eth” holds 69 Gobblers with a total multiplier of 518x.

Do Web2 platforms have Web3 strategies?

Ive been talking about this for a while – I know personally every major big Web 2 platform has a Web 3 strategy they are rolling out.

They get it.
They get that their model will change.
They get decentralisation.
Don’t underestimate them.
