It makes sense then that this would expand into web3 and we would leverage blockchain technology and the benefits it provides to facilitate the exploration of strange worlds. Today, we have with us the co-creator and artist for one such new...

In the five years I’ve been watching NFTs, I have seen a lot of projects launch. I’ve seen some that have exploded and some that have been epic fails. What I love to see is a project I get into that has the legs to stick around and truly work out and develop their roadmap. This is the case for SuperYetis. I minted three SuperYetis over a year ago and not only have these guys survived, they are thriving and have airdropped additional NFTs to holders, have land, and more announcements around...
