On this episode, we're rounding up the latest news in Metaverse & NFT Gaming. Apple is under fire for their standard 30% transaction fees for all transactions, a mechanism that many NFT firms argue is unreasonable and simply not feasible for their existence in the store. We're also taking a look at our favorite Metaverse Tokens to watch while breaking down sentiment data. Meanwhile, Meta (Quest VR) has been making some groundbreaking tech leaps in VR with a major showcase due at Meta Connect in October, which may fuel a massive metaverse rally again.

METAGOLDEN is: a web3 emporium showcasing the finest luxury collectibes (art, jewelry, fashion) by way of collaborations between digital creators and IRL artists and brands. In an increasingly digital world, digital assets have become much more popular and widely used. An NFT (non-fungible token) can represent a “wearable” for your avatar (VR), a signature accessory to be worn on your social media profile picture (AR) or a piece of digital art to be displayed via (QR) code in your home or office. NFTs are traditionally "tokenized" by blockchain code. However, when one purchases an NFT from Metagolden, one also receives the physical item that it represents. And those assets have the ability to increase in value over time versus being discarded season after season.

Gala Music is a curated, decentralized platform where music can be hosted, shared, and listened to through a network of decentralized Player Nodes. Each node can host music NFTs, which may then be accessed through the network, rewarding both the operator of the node who hosts the track as well as the NFT owner and artist for each listen. Fans that don’t own an NFT or a Node will be able to earn rewards when they listen to music from emerging artists, new talent and undiscovered voices.

Several Bored Ape NFT holders borrowed against their NFT on BendDAO. Liquidation risk has been rising because Bored Ape NFTs floor price has been falling. BendDAO cofounder also risks being liquidated on his platform. To make matters worse, BendDAO is experiencing a bank run. The so-called “NFTfi” protocol saw its Ethereum reserves drained over the weekend, meaning ETH lenders are now unable to recoup their deposits from the protocol’s reserves. Bored Ape NFTs have long been the gold standard of NFTs, a sudden supply shock with no buyers could spell doom for the entire NFT market as a whole.
