Hello rocketeers!

November is filled with high notes, we’re back in the bull and we’ve got so much optimism about EVERYTHING! Ironically, crypto winter ends during IRL winter. But what would degens know, it’s not like we step outside anyway…

Here’s all you need to know in web3 this week to get you to the moon!

📈📉NFT Tokens Making Moves

Digital Collectibles Market Movements: 

Back from the Dead, fellaz! While many thought the popular Zombie collection Deadfellaz were done and dusted, their resilience in the bear market is now booming in the bull!

🌚Full Moons - ETH ETF, Roblox NFTs, & Bitcoin Flipping ETH…WE ARE SO BACK!

First Bitcoin, Now Ethereum ETF Incoming?!

BlackRock, the world's largest asset manager, plans to launch an Ethereum-based ETF, intensifying its involvement in cryptocurrencies. This announcement drove Ethereum's price up to around $2,100, signaling a strong market response. BlackRock aims to list this new ETF on Nasdaq, pending regulatory approval.

• The ETF's introduction follows BlackRock's registration of "iShares Ethereum Trust" in Delaware, part of its ETF division.

• Previously engaging in a Bitcoin ETF, the company's move represents a significant shift in CEO Larry Fink's stance towards crypto.

The ETF will be custodied by Coinbase, with BlackRock leveraging a market-surveillance agreement to address potential SEC concerns regarding price integrity and fraud detection in the crypto market.

Roblox To Go All-In On NFTs soon!

Roblox CEO David Baszucki envisions a future where NFTs could be integrated into the platform, allowing items like limited-edition digital goods to move in and out of Roblox. He imagines creators playing a key role in this process, with possibilities like charity items by celebrities being sold off-platform as NFTs.

• While Roblox recently introduced 'Limiteds' – virtual items with resale value but not based on blockchain – the concept is similar to NFTs.

• Baszucki's thoughts open the door to potential NFT integration, though Roblox hasn't committed to adding blockchain technology yet.

This idea taps into Roblox's vast user base, particularly among younger audiences, expanding digital ownership and commerce possibilities.

BTC NFTs Flip ETH NFTs For The First Time EVER!

In a historic shift on November 8, 2023, Bitcoin's NFT sales surpassed Ethereum's for the first time in a single day, reaching $17.17 million compared to Ethereum's $15.77 million.

This remarkable event, captured by Cryptoslam analytics, follows Bitcoin's recent trend of increasing NFT transactions. The surge was led by Bitcoin's unique Ordinal inscriptions, which recently saw a significant uptick in activity.

Despite Ethereum's overall weekly lead in NFT sales, this single-day achievement for Bitcoin, highlighted by collections like "$SATS BRC-20 NFTs," marks a notable moment in the evolving landscape of NFT markets and the rising prominence of Bitcoin in this domain.

🔭The Scope

Nothing matters anymore…just PUMP IT…that is all…

Bull run, baby!
