NFT Market Recap
After the turmoil in the markets over the past few days, ETH and BTC finally found some support which allowed NFTs some reprieve. Whilst most NFT projects have seen nice bounces from their lows, Opensea volume still remains low, trading just $57 million yesterday, which is close to the lows of the year.
If you still haven't caught up with the downfall of Terra and the reason that the markets dumped over the past few days, I highly recommend you read the thread below for a solid breakdown.

Yuga Labs projects saw much of the volume yesterday, Otherdeed (2.97 ETH, +18.8%) saw solid volume as some teasers were released (looks like a re-skinned Fornite to us but better than expected). Bored Ape Yacht Club (98.5 ETH, +4.76%), and Mutant Ape Yacht Club (20.90 ETH, +22.94%) also saw solid gains as buyers speculated that these projects were some of the safest investments in the space.
Azuki also saw a strong bounce yesterday, with the floor bouncing from lows of 8 ETH up 50% to 13.86 ETH (at time of writing). After much hate following the Zabagond news on Monday, seemingly from outsiders and holders of other projects, the Azuki community seems to have banded together, one of the cofounders @steamboy33 thanked the community for their support.
Other projects which saw bounces yesterday include:
CLONE X | 13.20 ETH, +12.82%
Meebits | 4.8 ETH, +15.29%
Cool Cats | 3.99 ETH, +14.33%
Adidas Originals | 1.37 ETH, +21.15%
Doodles "dooplicator" launched yesterday, a free NFT for Doodles holders, so far the project's price has continued to decline, now sitting at 12.95 ETH, down -15.36% over the past 24 hours.

Latest NFT News ๐ฐ
๐ฎ OpenSea announced that it is implementing features to โimprove authenticity" that will automatically detect and remove so called 'copycat NFTs' that aim to trick the buyer into thinking that they're buying the real thing! Opensea says it will use image recognition tech to scan NFTs and compare them with authentic collections, removing ones that are the same, flipped or rotated.
๐ The Otherside project from Yuga Labs has now released some more info surrounding it's lore. Yuga Labs added an โObelisk: The Voyagerโs Journeyโ tab to its website, detailing some key points of the project, including their long awaited rough roadmap.
Scam Warnings ๐จ
โ Be careful of scam links even on Google - We'd recommend bookmarking official pages!
Using an exploit with Google ads, scammers are able to make the real and scam URL look exactly the same.
