From application upgrades to DEX-ridden-drama (or perhaps, CEX is more appropriate), the Cardano Community never sleeps! Let’s check in on what the talk of the town has been this week.

🖌 NFT of the Week with Noodz 🍜

Each week, we check in with our resident NFT connoisseur, Noodz. Let’s see what he’s got cookin’ for us…

Thanks to our good friends at Sick City and NEWM, the first ever NFT on Cardano that features full page turning score sheet music along with an audio recording!

This work was composed by Jordan Chase, a guitarist-composer who graduated from Peabody Institute at Johns Hopkins University.

Check it out along with other selections from NEWM’s Record Store.

Full disclosure: Alan Buxbaum, one of the authors for this newsletter, is splitting a small portion of ADA proceeds from the sale of this NFT. The rest goes to Jordan, the Record Store and Sick City.

1 TX and 248 unique recipients with a whopping fee of 0.87₳. 👀

We’re starting off slow, as our first priority is longevity. We’ll be building out our platform over time.

As they say, slow and steady wins the race!
