Floor acquires WGMI.io

January 24, 2023 (updated January 24, 2023) Published by

Floor acquires WGMI.io in an effort to make non-fungible tokens (NFTs) more understandable and accessible to the public.

WGMI.io, a leading provider of NFT analytics, has helped early adopters of NFTs understand the value and potential of these unique digital assets through powerful comparison and valuation tools. The WGMI API also powers NFT experiences embedded in various web3 products, aligning with Floor’s vision for a more collaborative industry.

With this acquisition, Floor will integrate WGMI’s deep analytics features into its platform, enhancing the portfolio experience for users and expanding the reach of WGMI to Floor’s 10,000+ active users. This shared platform will also power new app features such as trait-floor pricing, and extend content from Floor’s content platform to WGMI.

The WGMI team and community will be joining Floor on this mission to make NFTs more accessible to the public, bringing their years of experience in web3 analytics to the table. We are excited to see the impact this acquisition will have on the NFT industry.

y00ts granted $3 million by Polygon to leave Solana​

January 23, 2023 (updated January 23, 2023) Published by

DeLabs, a startup focused on transferring y00ts to Polygon, has announced that it has received a $3 million grant from Polygon. The grant will be used to expand the DeLabs team across various departments, including graphic design, event coordination, business development, and content creation. Additionally, the funds will be used to launch high-quality projects and pursue collaborations and deals with established businesses.

y00ts, a spinoff PNP NFT collection from DeLabs, gained success on Solana with its DeGods PFP collection. According to the founder of y00ts, Frank, the grant is in the form of a “non-equity grant,” which means that Polygon does not have a stake in DeLabs in exchange. The funds will help DeLabs, which has been understaffed, to have more runway to expand their projects.

A spokesperson from Polygon stated that they support the determination of Frank and the y00ts team and are excited about the projects that will be established on Polygon through their launchpad.

DeLabs’s move to Polygon comes a month after the collision of FTX. Sam Bankman-Fried, former CEO of FTX, was a key investor in Solana as well as many other projects on the network, including Serum, a now-defunct decentralized exchange.

Frank has teased that in the future, y00ts will play a major role in big-brand collaborations on Polygon, similar to deals that Polygon has entered into with popular brands like Disney, Starbucks, and Coca-Cola.

The world of web3 is rapidly growing and becoming increasingly popular, with artists, musicians, and other creators using the technology to monetize their work. Building a strong community is essential for success if you’re launching or running a web3 project. However, growing a community can be a daunting task. To make it easier, we’ve compiled a list of three tools that can help you grow your community.

ZooTools Panda

ZooTools Panda helps you collect leads and build your audience organically. They provide three main use cases to help you acquire and engage users. Each use case allows you to create a unique form and add the fields you want to collect data from your users. You can also add different types of fields to your forms to capture additional information.

y00ts used a similar approach for their scholarship program, which was wildly successful.

1. Pre-launch waitlists

Creating a pre-launch waitlist allows you to reward your most loyal users when completing actions like sharing their email, joining a Discord server, connecting a wallet address, and referring their friends.

2. NFT allowlists

NFT allowlists are simpler forms that allow you to collect wallet addresses easily.

3. Newsletters

Newletter signup forms are the most basic and allow you to collect a name and email.
