The Spark (ep. #2)

Hello and welcome to the second episode of “The Spark“ newsletter!

Here you can find everything you need to stay up-to-date with upcoming NFT projects and web3 games.

Now let’s get into it

[Early alpha] section:

1. Way To Gods (2050 followers)

• Web3 project made in collaboration between Alibaba (Chinese multinational technology company) and [redacted]

• In 2024 they will be releasing a movie attached to project’s IP; it was in production for several years so far

• Artwork made by studio which worked with such titles as Kung-Fu Panda, God of War, Final Fantasy

• Project will utilize new AI technologies - for example they already launched an AI influencer, which has over 1M followers up to date; this influencer will collaborate with huge Chinese music band early next year, helping to broad project’s IP

My take:

Another project by web2 giant in the making. Not sure what’s the end goal and how it will benefit holders. Mint details are obviously TBA as project is super early. However, i think it makes sense to get involved early as you never know how it can turn out, and it doesn’t make sense to fade projects with big financial/knowledgable backing

2. CLIQ (110 followers)

• Self stated as “anonymous forum for verified Web3 professionals to share insight and seek advice”

• VC backed (not yet disclosed)

• Team members are ex Binance employees

My take:

Another social-fi app is here, trying to capitalize on the meta. The fact that team is experienced is certainly a good sign. There should not be any mints, hence the only way you can benefit is being early or/and possible aidrop (which makes sense for them to introduce). Worth to keep an eye on this one if you’re into social-fi side of things

[Updates] section:

• Forge announced mint details for their genesis collection

• San FranTokyo started marketing for their PFP collection

• CREEP CREW announced their mint date

• SkyArk Chronicles opened their limited partnership slots

• JIO revealed mint details for their upcoming PFP collection

• The GRAPES opened GrapeCoin presale registration for holders and Golden Ticked activation for non-holders

• PROJECT ZIRCON (by Konami) shared their roadmap

[News] section:

• Blur announced season 2 airdrop, which is set to occur on November 20th

• Sugartown teased a reveal that will happen on the next week

• Magic Eden introduced a tokenized digital collectibles drop, featuring 100 different Pokemon cards, which are physically backed and redeemable

• 0N1 FORCE launched their ‘Season 1’ points system

• Parallel TGC is now listed on Steam

• Big Time pre-season is now live

That’s the wrap for this time!
