Why not deposit them into a custom FWA pool with a higher spin price, pool the ETH backing from their NFT holders, and favorably split (60/40) the current 50%+ APR with them?

Punks. MoonCats. Azuki. Pudgy. BAYC. Doodles. Cool Cats. Fwogs. Pickles.

That’s not just random nostalgia.

That’s old NFT culture, meme culture, art culture and community history all being pulled into one mint.

And the best part?

It’s"

That’s where you find out who is here for the hype and who is here for the vision.
I’m still backing BackPunks. 
NFTs are a long game. Communities take time to grow, builders need time to execute, and real brands aren’t created overnight."
