On this fine Thursday, GM Web3 reports live from Art Blocks X Ledger in Paris, featuring special guests and discussions on macro topics and NFTs. The recent FOMC minutes were brought up and how the community is in unison about slowly increasing rates. The crypto market has been shaky but has returned to similar levels, with $BLUR falling below $1. NFT collections are down around 2-3%, with speculations about $2 million being spent a day in Blur farming cycles.

The Bored Ape Sewer Pass "Toad Mode" went live and seems to be more difficult than the first version of the donkey dash.

Ledger has announced a browser extension that allows safe connections to Dapps and identifies scams, with plans to make it available on Safari and Chrome. John Karp, the founder/owner of NFT Factory Paris, discusses how he entered the NFT space, created a daily show, and developed a physical space to attract the masses. Ariel Wengroff highlights how Ledger has legitimized Paris as the hub for NFTs, embedding culture and art into a prime location.

This episode was really just a great vibe!
