☞ The week in NFTs - Volume 31

#ProbablyNothingDigest 🧵 by SODIUM

Week 31 - Period 08/01-08/07:

What a draining week.

Major news included mainly moves from Web 2 companies (META), as well as negative headlines from exploit wallets (Solana, Crypto exchange ZB) with over 8k affected users, and the current positive Crypto wave (upcoming ETH triple fork).

Fun fact before we kick-off the week:
El Salvador’s President said the country’s international tourism has increased mostly due to Bitcoin.
