1/12 My new favourite tool for NFTs and why everyone needs to hop on @degenmint_xyz https://degenmint.xyz/ 

2/12 In this free mint meta being profitable comes down to quick decision-making and safety. With the wider availability of minting tools, the ability to catch free mints quickly and read smart contracts quickly will give an edge to your profitability. @degenmint_xyz enables that

3/12 With the mint monitor on the website, you can see what is being minted and the speed of transactions. 

4/12 By clicking on the collection page you are presented with the necessary information to make your decision whether or not to mint quickly. 

5/12 These include 1. consolidated links to other marketplaces and tools. 2. notable groups that minted 3. average entry point and successful transactions. 4. code snippet 5. profit calculator

6/12 1. consolidated links to other marketplaces and tools. These are essential links direct you quickly to check on the mint. @opensea to check the nft, @etherscan to mint from contract @Twitter to check following @NFTNerdsAI to check secondary trading. all at your fingertips.

7/12 2. notable groups that minted. one way to estimate whether a mint will do well if there are traders who tend to perform well have minted with you.

8/12 3. average entry point. one quick look and you can tell the average gas that others have paid. use this information to decide whether the contract is optimised, whether it is worthwhile to mint multiple especially if it is a 721A contract (multiple mints more cost effective)

9/12 4. code snippet. degenmint pulls out important code from the smart contract so that you can have a quick scan through the important parameters and mint function to decide whether or not it is worthwhile to mint. I usually prefer a lower supply and lower max per wallet.

10/12 5. profit calculator. quickly see your breakeven after mint and decide your breakeven. i usually sell enough to cover the cost for degen minting and ladder (list in increments) the rest out to ensure profitability while not bricking the floor.

12/12 As always when degen minting makes sure to use a burner wallet that does not hold your valuable NFTs as you are susceptible to making mistakes. Reduce the risk of making mistakes so you can focus on the above.

Shout out to @Metaverse_HQ for the great minds inside and being a great community for my journey in Web3. https://twitter.com/Metaverse_HQ/status/1543351436821647364?s=20&t=xceXOvsDlJ7XTRwlZ6DuoA

SOULS @souls_galaxy, a mint that i am looking forward to. https://www.premint.xyz/souls/

SOULS are living artworks created in collaboration between international pop star Sia and renowned visual artist David OReilly. 

They began as a series of simple colourful paintings that grew over time into an expansive collection of never before seen digital beings built with love and shaped between two friends. 10,000 SOULS exist as virtual objects that can bounce, wiggle, dance, sleep, and even sing.

Team
FOUNDER: Bianca de’ Medici (SIA) @BiancaMedici69
Bianca de’ Medici is a crypto influencer and NFT collector, also known in the real world as Sia, a world-famous artist, singer and songwriter.

FOUNDER: David OReilly https://instagram.com/davidoreilly
David is an Irish artist, filmmaker and game developer based in the USA.

Utility/Roadmap
The team has teased that SOULS will help Sia create new music and make an impact with cause projects.

Engagement
Sia is an international pop star and is followed by millions of people worldwide. In the NFT space she takes up the personality of Bianca de’ Medici, goddaughter of famous NFT collector Cozomo de’ Medici and not many people know that Bianca and Sia are the same people.

Pros:
• Sia is a world-famous artist and has a broad appeal.
• The website and sneak peeks put out are extremely high quality.
• There are not many NFTs that integrate both art and music and this project looks to be a trend setter.

Things I'm wary of:
• The only thing I am wary of is the market conditions into which SOULS is launching.

SOULS

Many people are unsure about Unseen Universe (https://the-art-of-progress.com/), here's a 🧵 

OMR & AUDI are raising funds for UN Refugee Aid Germany with an NFT drop of the AI sculpture ‘UNSEEN UNIVERSE’ by Eylul Alici and Ferdi Alici from Studio OUCHHH. The digital work of art is created live at the Audi trade fair stand in the OMR Festival 2022 in Hamburg.

Team

FOUNDER: AUDI @AudiOfficial

AUDI AG stands for sporty vehicles, high build quality and progressive design. It was founded in 1899 and is among the world’s leading producers of premium cars.

FOUNDER: OMR @OMRockstars

OMR is Europe’s leading platform for digital marketing makers. It launched as an online marketing conference in 2011 and has since advanced to a 360° digital media company based in Hamburg, Germany that employs a full-time staff of 140.

ARTIST: Studio OUCHHH (Ferdi & Eylul Alici) 

@hello_ouchhhOUCHHH is an award-winning independent New Media Studio with cross-discipline expertise in AI, data sculpture/painting, Art, Science and Technology. 

Directors Ferdi and Eylul have over a decade of experience in the public arts and new media industry. They have received numerous design awards for their pioneering work in the field of digital arts.

Utility/Roadmap

The proceeds generated through the sale of NFTs will support the work of UNO-Flüchtlingshilfe, the national partner of UNHCR - the refugee agency of the United Nations, in Germany. It has been supporting its aid programs for refugees all over the world since 1980

Engagement

Unseen Universe has nailed their Web 3 marketing campaign, they have countless partnership giveaways with different communities and key opinion leaders in the space.

Pros:
• 100% of proceeds go to charity.

Pros(cont): 

• The work is AUDI’s first foray into NFTs, there might be long term utility to hold one of these for future utilities.
• There is a lot of demand for obtaining the WL for this project. Their public premint has over 40k submissions at the time of writing this.

Things I'm wary of:

The previous Web 2 native brand drop, D&G did not live up to expectations, especially with regard to their delivery method. 

@Audiofficial is a top company and they definitely have the brand power to fuel a successful product but can they smoothly enter the web 3 space, we will have to wait and see.
