💸 Blockchain Headlines

If you’re reading this and happen to be an American citizen, then a big GM to you, fellow traitor! 🤝

There are many takeaways from such a sentiment being expressed, but perhaps the most ironic one is how Mr. Stoller’s country was literally founded on “traitors”.

To quote the late-and-great John Lewis:

"Do not get lost in a sea of despair. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Our struggle is not the struggle of a day, a week, a month, or a year, it is the struggle of a lifetime. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble."

📢 Cardano Community Corner

From parameter updates to meme coins-galore, 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…

This time, we’re featuring none other than our fantastic NFT-curator himself, Noodz! He’s being featured in CardanoSpace’s OG-and-amazing Where’s Waldo puzzle.

Here’s the gist: CaradnoSpace helps promote various NFT projects in our awesome ecosystem by dressing them up in Waldo-fashion and hiding them in what is now a beautiful tapestry of Cardano history. If you find it (or rather, when you find it), you can click on it and mint the Waldo-permutation right there and then!

Pretty neat, right?

But don’t take your time on this one, as there’s only one week before this Noodz-Waldo disappears forever! (December 26th in this case).

And if you’re not familiar, make sure to check out CardanoSpace and what they’re all about! Props to being a steady foundation to NFTs across our wonderful blockchain. 🙏

That's all for now!

Feels a bit brief? Don’t worry, we’re right there with ya!

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!
