Post-Merge NFTs 💚 – by William M. Peaster

Metaversal is one Bankless newsletter for weekly levels on NFTs, virtual worlds and digital collectibles

Dear Bankless Nation,

The vast majority of NFT activity takes place on Ethereum.

And with the merger lowering Ethereum’s energy usage by over 99% this week, NFTs have gone green accordingly!

Due to inertia, it will still take some time to fend off the “NFTs are terrible for the environment” crowd. But there is no doubt that the public image of NFTs will improve because of this major development, and that is worth celebrating.

In the meantime, have a great weekend everyone and thanks for reading ✌️
