Happy birthday Moonly!

One year ago, on May 26th, we successfully crashed Magice Eden's website and minted it out. I will never forget those moments.

This is a marathon, not a sprint. Which means we are here for long-term goals. One year passed quickly, and another will as well. Right now, at this moment, we are preparing for better days, so when they come, we will be there and ready.

Here is a short bullet list of what is next:

Make an upgrade on our SaaS, to support pNFTs and help Kaimana guys solve their issue
Finish the WL flow that we have building \"secretly\" for the last few weeks. We gonna use it for our own purpose, but I believe other projects will want that because it's gonna be super funny, unique, and useful. More on that later, and you gonna help us test.
Work on Moonly Discord bot, to support new features. Like SPL tokens, but also different blockchains. The future is cross-chain.
Finalize and release our Raffle platform.
Role-based functionality, which means to wrap all our tools in packages, for easier onboarding of our future partners and clients.
Finalize the Sniper bot. We have a functional version, but since some emerging things popped up, we needed to put it on the side.

The Solana Foundation has launched a ChatGPT plugin developed by Solana Labs into its network to help users navigate the blockchain and get answers to Solana network-related questions. According to the Solana Foundation, this makes Solana the first Layer 1 blockchain to adopt the popular AI to serve crypto users.

— Solana (@solana) May 23, 2023

\n\n

Although Solana made the official announcement on May 23, 2023, Solana Labs had hinted in April that it was building the plugin. The new plugin revolves around users getting a grip on the Solana blockchain, allowing them to engage the Solana network directly from OpenAI's ChatGPT. According to Solana, the plugin is now available for forking via its GitHub repository.

In its extended use case, \"users will be able to check wallet balances, transfer tokens, and even purchase NFTs using the plugin.\" While it won't mint an NFT outright, Solana's ChatGPT plugin can recommend the type and number of NFTs the Sol in a user's wallet can buy.

— Solana Labs (@solanalabs) April 25, 2023

\n\n

Solana's co-founder and CEO of Solana Labs, Anatoly Yakovenko, in an interview, says, \"The plugin just gives you a text interface, like a text-based block explorer. You can describe an object on-chain and it will respond by telling you that it is an NFT account or something like that. So that's kind of cool but it won't yet mint an NFT set. What I want it to do is be able to write to the chain but we're not there yet.\"

To further show its full backing of AI innovations, the Solana Foundation also says it has extended its grant program from the initial $1 million to $10 million in funding to include support for AI innovations on the Solana network. \"Every dev building consumer-oriented apps should be thinking about how their app is going to be interacted with through an AI model because this is a new paradigm for telling computers what to do,\" Anatoly Yakovenko says in his interview.

The Solana network has always boasted of a faster and more scalable network than Ethereum, which many consider its closest rival. Besides this claim, users of Solana, a proof-of-stake network, agree that it can withstand heavy network tussles and offer lower gas fees even if the network seems congested.

Most NFT marketplaces feature a drop calendar for upcoming NFTs. These are only limited to NFTs dropping on their platform. But an NFT aggregator and analytics tool not only show more NFT drops from various marketplaces. It reveals more information about them.

However, narrowing these NFT drops to potentially profitable ones often feels like gambling. But with some background checks, you can research an NFT project's credibility and determine if it's an investment you want to join. Easier said. It requires some tactics.

This blog will explain how to leverage social stats to research an NFT project pre-mint.

Disclaimer:
Ensure you do your research before investing in any NFT or crypto project. The information in this article is only informational and for tutorial purposes. Any information by Moonly isn't financial advice to invest in a cryptocurrency or NFT. Moonly is not responsible for any loss incurred while investing in any crypto. DYOR.

Find Upcoming NFT Projects

You'll need to narrow down a list of upcoming NFT projects to get the most promising ones. We'll use some NFT drops as examples in this article—to show how to analyze your way down.

There are many NFT analytics tools out there. But we'll use the Moonly analytics tool to demonstrate our examples.

To begin, log on to the Moonly website. The Moonly landing page is subdivided into different sections. The featured sections include Top floor movers, Sales of the day, Bottom floor movers, and Top volume changes.

Scrolling down, you'll see the Upcoming NFT Drops section. Ensure you click the Upcoming button to filter the listing to only upcoming drops.

Some of these listings are free while others come at a price, depending on the creator. The listing features the Price, Supply, and Mint Date for each NFT.

You'll also see the social overview of each NFT right below its name. For instance, as shown above, SportX Metaverse mints on May 23, 2023, has a total supply of 3,444 with zero Discord members and 7.2k Twitter followers.

Moonly is also multichain. To view NFTs for a specific chain instead, hover over Upcoming NFTs towards the top left. Select any of the listed chains to narrow the listing to your selection.

Scroll through the upcoming listings. Peruse their social stats and mint date (Twitter followers and Discord members). Once you find an NFT project that catches your attention, click it to view more activities.

There are many upcoming NFT projects. Seeing one that catches your interest might not mean you'll ultimately mint it. However, like any investor, there are ways to see if a project is worth your money.

For this article only, we'll use unrevealed NFTs on Moonly to demonstrate how to use statistics to find the top upcoming mints. I've based my selection on the social numbers (number of Twitter followers and Discord members).

💡

Warning:
While we've based our selection on the social stats in this article, it doesn't in any way imply that the social stats is the only way to determine the potential worth of an NFT or crypto project. There are many other metrics. A project with low social followers but with verifiable social engagement, an intentional and sustainable roadmap, a verifiable web presence, and a comprehensive and transparent organizational structure has more potential than one with thousands of followers without any of these qualities.

Here's an overview of the chosen NFT page on Moonly:

As shown, the selected NFT is a 2.5k-supply Solana NFT with 9k Twitter followers and 5.3k Discord members, minting on May 26, 2023, for 3 Sol (shown on the right). According to the stat, its Twitter followers have grown by 0.19%, while its Discord server has increased by 0.49% in the last 24 hours. Don't flip over the number of Alphas, too. Twenty-two Alphas is an impressive number.

There's more. The percentage of engagements on its tweets is also fair at 0.12%. The 16% Ratio metric defines the proportion of Discord members currently online. This is 852 of 5.3k Discord members, according to the Online section.

Looking to the left (below the NFT's name), you'll see the NFT's website link, the Discord link, and the Twitter handle. All these tell us three things; the target project has a verifiable website, an active Discord server, and a Twitter account.

Despite the incredible social stats, clicking the website link for my chosen NFT turned me off, as it had no content as of writing. It was almost blank!

This neither invalidates nor marks the project as a potential rug, though. And while they might be building a website at the time, I expected some transparent statements on the website with the progress information. But a blank web page? That's a red flag!

I sampled another NFT. This time, it's a 9,999 PFP collection minting on September 22, 2023, for 3 Sol. According to the stats, it had 2.2k Twitter followers and 1.9k Discord members at the time of writing.

Despite its fewer followers when compared to the previously sampled NFT, its 24-hour tweet engagement stood at 0.4%. This is 0.28% higher than the previous NFT. This higher engagement proportion denotes a more active community.

For what it's worth, this is better than an NFT with thousands of followers but with low engagements. Although its Discord online member ratio was lower at 1.5%, this is typical of projects at their early stage.

The project's website appears professional, with appropriate call-to-actions, mission statement, goal, whitepaper, and other information. So it's easy for anyone to know where they're coming from and where they're going.

I still trust this type of NFT to one with more followers but without a working website that describes its goals.

Note:‌
We've censored the NFTs sampled in this article to avoid promoting a particular NFT project over another. As mentioned, they're only for tutorial purposes to show how to leverage social stats to determine a project's potential worth.

When you scroll down a project's page on Moonly, you'll see a chart showing the social trends within a specific period. The default selection for this visualization is seven days. You can select between one month (1M) or three months (3M). Or you can click All to view the data for all time.

Ensure the chart selection is on Social stats. The Market stats section is always blank for upcoming projects since they're not yet in the market.

Your research doesn't stop there. If a project interests you, you want to join its Discord channel to see what they're discussing. You should also follow their Twitter handle to see if their tweets align with their purpose. This is one of the ways to spot fake NFTs.

Be Sure You Want to Invest in That NFT

Investing in any crypto project requires a deliberate decision. And the truth is you might lose money in the process. No one can certainly predict the future of any project. But some trends point to how they'll likely turn out.

I've shown you some tips for picking an upcoming NFT in this blog. But you might research its nooks and crannies as done here and still lose out. So ensure you want to risk your funds before investing in any NFT.

Remember, research heavily until you're convinced.

We know the amount of tedious work it requires to find potentially profitable upcoming NFT drops. While it's hard to tell the future, we base our selection on past statistics and current pointers to pick upcoming NFTs with potential value.

Looks like we're leaning more toward utility NFTs in this edition, though. Here are our top upcoming NFT drops for this week.

1. Paraverse

Minting on May 21, 2023, Paraverse is a collection of 1,200 AR Land NFTs on the Ethereum network—representing the link between the physical and virtual worlds. Although it's a free mint, only onboarded members and those with special roles will have access to the free mint. Paraverse has approximately 44.4k Twitter followers (3.62% tweet engagement) and 37.7k Discord members at the time of writing.

— paraverse_official (@paraverse_world) March 10, 2023

\n\n

The Paraverse project leverages blockchain technology, augmented reality, and geolocation to help you experience the \"limitless possibilities of the metaverse.\" The company is looking to launch its mobile app later in 2023, where users can immerse themselves in the \"PARAVERSE\" via their smartphone camera. In addition to navigation features, the company says the app will feature a \"Find-To-Earn\" scheme to gamify users' experience.

Holders of the upcoming NFT, AR Lands, will have a premium experience with access to specific geolocations, including the ownership of a piece of transferable AR land.

2. SOUL SAVER

The Soul Saver is a play-to-earn (P2E) game featuring 3,333 Soul Savers Random Boxes as NFTs minting on May 2, 2023, on the Polygon network. The social stats are also impressive. As of writing, its Twitter and Discord numbers stand at 29k and 19.7K, respectively.

The Soul Saver has been a martial art gaming service since 2005. It's venturing into Web 3 with a P2E game described as \"an idle RPG genre that offers low-fatigue farming, mining, and strategic combat fun with various classes and skill combinations.\"

Each Random Box NFT goes for 30 Matic and contains three NFTs. Each box will give holders access to gaming buff effects and the ability to mine its governance token, the SOUL. You can get more mint information on its Medium page.

3. Shockwaves

The Shockwaves NFT is a phenomenal drop offering 2,222 NFTs as AI and minting on May 22, 2023, on the Ethereum network at no cost for Whitelist slots. It's a music-based first-person shooter game where holders can engage other players in the metaverse using their AI NFT collections.

\n\n

The Shockwaves NFT boasts approximately 43.3k Twitter followers with about 0.22% engagement. Its Discord community is also impressive at 54.8k.

Once you own a Shwowaves NFT, you get a virtual wallet for receiving in-game rewards in Neuros$, the DAO's native token. Another uniqueness of Shockwaves is holder can flexibly re-train their NFTs for specific purposes using a language model-based chat, giving them higher odds while playing against human opponents.

4. DELUXEGOAT-Dimensions

Deluxegoat-Dimensions NFT got our attention for its compelling roadmap. It's an Ethereum-based collection of 10,000 4K ultra-high-quality 2D art from Deluxe Labs, the creator of the popular Genesis collection, which boasts a floor of 0.185 ETH as of writing.

The Dimensions NFT is minting on May 26, 2023, in a 24-hour \"minting party,\" with each mint going for 0.021 Eth. The Genesis collection gained popularity for its highly valued utilities. But the Dimensions isn't holding back either. The NFT company is offering an allowlist draw to give special minting privileges. You might want to hop in to try your luck.

\n\n

In addition to getting future free mints, each NFT hands you a $DLX, its native loyalty token, and early access to its staking chambers, among many other holders' perks.

5. Overlords

Overlords, the Ethereum-based gaming experience, is here with 3,333 ultra HD 8000 x 8000 pixels NFTs. Each Overlords NFT collection provides immersive technology from Arkana Labs.

The Overlords NFT will mint on May 24, 2023. And each NFT goes for 0.075 ETH. Holders of the new NFT will enjoy a unique multiplayer experience in an enhanced environment.

As of writing, its Twitter following is also impressive at 20.8k. Plus, it has 9.2k dedicated Discord members. Although Overlords has lost 0.01% and 0.29% of its Twitter and Discord followers in the last seven days, its tweet engagement ratio is 4.44%. This isn't quite common for most upcoming NFTs.

6. AssetDash Vanta

AssetDash Vanta is the last on our list of top upcoming NFT picks. But it's not the least. It's one of the most valuable utility collections this week's watch. And we anticipate this unique release. AssetDash Vanta is a Solana-based collection featuring 10000 NFTs minting on May 23, 2023, at an undisclosed price.

AssetDash is a rewarding web 3.0 portfolio tracker that now features a Vanta tier, hence, the idea behind the Vanta NFT. The Vanta NFT offers holders a membership privilege with free access to the platform. Thus, while anyone can join the Web 2 model for $19 monthly, its Web 3 version will only grant free access to Vanta NFT holders.

The legacy Web2 model looks like this 📉
• Monthly fee ($19.99 a month)
• No fixed supply
• Anyone can join

The new Vanta Web3 model looks like this 📈
• Sold as a one-time NFT mint to earliest supporters
• Fixed supply
• Can only join through ownership of a Vanta NFT
— AssetDash (@assetdash) May 19, 2023

\n\n

Although the Vanta NFT is minting on the Solana network, AssetDash is network-agnostic. Thus, it helps you keep all your assets in one place regardless of their parent blockchain.

Do Your Research

The upcoming NFTs featured in this edition of our NFT picks all look promising to us. However, this is only our opinion---not financial advice for investing in any NFT project.

Key Points:

The European Union (EU) has adopted a new rule that makes crypto transactions traceable.
The new rule applies to all crypto asset providers and services.
The bill is part of the EU's fight against international and national money laundering and terrorist financing.
Crypto asset providers and services must disclose all parties' identities during transactions.
The newly adopted rule further extends the EU standards for fiat payment service providers to crypto assets.

The European Union (EU) has adopted new rules to ensure that crypto transactions are traceable to all parties involved. The update is available in a press release by the European Council yesterday, 16 April 2023. Notably, the bill maintains that all crypto asset providers, including crypto exchanges, must provide certain information about those using their services to transact cryptocurrencies.

According to the release, this new rule is set out against criminals and international threat actors who leverage crypto for money laundering and terrorist financing.

\"Today’s decision is bad news for those who have misused crypto-assets for their illegal activities, to circumvent EU sanctions or to finance terrorism and war. Doing so will no longer be possible in Europe without exposure – it is an important step forward in the fight against money laundering,\" says Elisabeth Svantesson, Sweden's Minister for Finance.

Although the regulation has been a requirement for payment service providers since 2015 when it was first adopted by the EU. The new adoption has extended this scope to digital assets.

The newly adopted bill holds that further to previous rules on fiat payments services, \"virtual asset service providers are to accompany transfers of virtual assets with information on the originators and beneficiaries of those transfers of virtual assets. Virtual asset service providers are also required to obtain, hold and share that information with their counterpart on the other end of the virtual assets transfer and make it available on request to competent authorities.\"

This implies that all crypto users will now provide their identities to crypto asset providers during transactions. Hence, instead of featuring only wallet addresses (a set of cryptographic strings), information, including names, locations, and other details about all parties involved in a crypto transaction, won't be hidden anymore.

The war on crypto has been going on for a while, with countries US placing sanctions on crypto exchange giants, including Binance and Coinbase. Many crypto businesses have expressed concern that the crypto regulation framework in many regions isn't clear.
