Fractal Marketplace Joins Polygon, Porsche Launch Falls Short, Web3 Data Analytics, Social Wallets, Crypto Analytics, and more!
💡 Intro
In another major win for Polygon: Fractal announced today that they’re expanding onto Polygon:
Why This Matters:
Fractal is the 3rd major project/platform in the last month to be Solana first and then move onto Polygon (Magic Eden and DeGods/Yoots were the other 2).
Momentum is clearly on Polygon’s side and these recent moves will encourage other platforms to migrate over as well.
Porsche’s official NFT mint struggled yesterday + today: with just over 1k NFTs minted out of 7500 total.
Their launch results shows that NFT minters are much more picky than during the bull run. And to mint a collection out: even big brands like Porsche need to provide real utility to their NFTs.
