The TRIP: Genesis NFT Library is a Colorful Artistic Journey

Published

A peaceful, serene, but sometimes psychedelic and mind-bending collection of the TRIP: Genesis, is a great example of artistic expression that relies on the mind of the viewer for most of its valuation. What I mean by this, is that the profile-picture style of the mixed traits from this collection are always a pleasure to look at, and almost all of them share a common trait. However, the few extremely rare NFTs that are completely different are what make searching the collections for something truly unique kind of exhilarating.

A Little Background

Interestingly, there is a lot of story behind the creation of the artwork and the community at the foundation of the NFT collection here. There appears to be a robust and vibrant collective of people, which is spoken of positively by the co-creator. “When we started the project over a year ago, we originally set forth to create a scene that was supposed to be similar to a mushroom trip experience. Like art, everyone’s experience [is] different. As we progressed through example animations, we realized the picture was much bigger — so we created a fictional character that went on the journey through their TRIP to tell the origin and ultimately created the entire storyline like a movie.”

From the Website

“The TRIP: Origin” is inspired by everyone’s individual journey — where they are, where they’re going and where they [will] ultimately end up. Each scene was crafted so that each viewer can see and feel something different than the next.”

The famous British luxury car designer Bentley Motors Limited is finally doing what we all hoped they would do all along. They will be designing something for the future Web3 ecosystem. This is going to take the form of the launch of a non-fungible token (NFT) collection, which will be on the Ethereum scaling platform Polygon, the company announced today. According to a recent announcement, the new NFT collection is slated to hit the markets in September 2022 and will feature a collection of a total of 208 pieces.

The News

Bentley Design is going to be in charge of making the NFT collection. Investors and purchasers that obtain the NFTs will receive special access and rewards from Bentley Motors. The car manufacturer did not release the NFTs’ price tag as yet.

Additionally, Bentley Motors has told sources that they plan to contribute the proceeds of the sale of all the NFTs to supporting students interested in engineering, design, and manufacturing. Additionally, the company plans to use the funds to support organizations that push for sustainability, especially in the transportation industry.

The Scoop

“The car manufacturer chose to drop its NFT collection on Polygon because the network is carbon neutral. Per the announcement, the Bentley NFTs will be eco-friendly, helping the company build on its commitment to achieving end-to-end carbon neutrality by 2030.” -Bentley

This collection will eventually set a precedent that all car companies and will hopefully result in more than a few collections getting fast-tracked.

Cryptoys, the internet start-up, is getting a boost in funding to achieve its goal. That goal is, in short, building a blockchain-based toy infrastructure that will get younger users used to the ideas of digital ownership and complex NFT mechanics. They have just finished raising $23 million which was headed up by Mattel, Dapper Labs, Draper & Associates, Acrew Capital, CoinFund, Animoca Brands and Sound Ventures. Cryptoys recently announced a $7.5 million seed round as well, and in this article we will examine the plan.

The News

Why should kids care about their in-app purchases being blockchain-ordained? This is a question put forward by the company as it finishes the round of funding. Weinraub, the CEO, says that “kids bouncing from platform to platform means a lot of digital asset value being lost, and he thinks his own children would be interested in reselling in-game items they’ve bought and grown tired of to fund new digital purchases.” Weinraub has stated that he believes that the occurrences of parents spending large amounts of money on cartoon animal NFTs means that they can get closer to their kids this way, and they want to continue that trend by enhancing the parental voice in the markets.

The Scoop

“For those parents that have gotten involved in the NFT space in the past several months, it’s fair to say that many investments haven’t turned out as profitable as anticipated even as many of the companies involved have seen big paydays.” -Tech Crunch
