Google x Dapper Labs 🤝
The First Mint
Featuring Google Partnership, New TFM Pod, TFM Live and More
Good Morning, NBA Top Shot Squad — Happy Thursday! Not too much going on so far in Top Shot right now, but let’s get into all the action from the last few days:
Together With Evaluate.Market
Maintaining an NBA Top Shot portfolio and researching new NFTs can be a challenging task. Evaluate.Market makes it easy to monitor your account value, discover market trends, and analyze NFT collections including NBA Top Shot, Bored Ape Yacht Club, Cool Cats, and more. Try it for yourself at Evaluate.Market!
Google x Dapper Labs 🤝
For all of our focus on Top Shot, it’s sometimes easy to forget that Dapper Labs has grandiose plans for the entire Web3 space, not just our NBA digital collectibles.
A great reminder of that? A partnership with Google to help scale the FLOW blockchain. Yes, that Google.
Via Yahoo! Finance:
Google Partners With Dapper Labs to Power Flow Blockchain
Two respective industry giants, Google and Dapper Labs, came together in an effort for enhanced blockchain support as Web 3.0 approaches.
As resident Crypto/NFT guru @andy0852 noted on Tuesday’s Club Top Shot, Google has many partnerships, and not all of them are earth-shattering in the grand scheme of things. However, it’s certainly a positive, however you slice it. And Roham certainly seems excited about it:
Amped to welcome Google to @flow_blockchain 🌊
In <1 year since #onFlow mainnet:
- 2.2M unique wallets, less than half from @nbatopshot
- 248 mainnet contracts (cf @flowverse_)
- 18.5M blocks and 49.7M tx
Now with 3000+ new devs building, Google jumps onboard to help scale 💪 https://t.co/0QmEdvogXh
The real question on all of our minds — wen $FLOW in the US? Or better yet, wen $FLOW airdrop to NBA Top Shot collectors?
