There’s several steps every NFT project requires you to do if you want to get in early.
First, join their Discord. This will allow you to verify yourself and gain access to the community. Next, you’ll follow the instructions in their discord server on how to get whitelisted. A whitelist is a list of approved or registered community members that are given exclusive access to a capped pre-sale of the NFT project. The whitelisted NFTs will be set at a price, something which ideally will rise once the NFT release date arrives, although this is no guarantee. Once you’ve done this, you’ll be required to connect your wallet to purchase the NFTs, which will appear in said-wallet.
The advantage of gaining whitelist access to any major NFT drop is that you have the opportunity to buy it at a low price. While you’re taking more risk, for successful NFT drops, this is where astronomical price gains are made.
Always do your own research, as NFT projects are far more subjective and speculative than cryptocurrency. Having siap that, these three upcoming projects may present a great way to make some money while the market is down.
CPG Pop: by “Crypto Packaged” GOODS – This art project, though already whitelisted, is a second project by Crypto Packaged Goods, a team of successful artists and business owners. With 190K followers on Twitter alone, along with a highly active and involved community + a flood price of 1.8 ETH, this freshly dropped project could see an insane price increase over the coming months. The team’s first project only offered 11 NFTs, and currently holds a floor price over 14.75 ETH.
Trippin’ Ape Tribe – Yes, another mockery Ape club. While the long term success of this project isn’t very likely, the hype behind this project has swept its 460K Twitter followers into one of the most active discord servers right now. With the whitelist still open but just days away, this pure hype train will likely be a total success or failure. Whitelist spots have nearly run out, so this is one good indicator the community is following through with the project.
Veefriends Series 2 – GaryVee is known for many things, but especially to the younger generation as the NFT guy. His 2nd collection of NFTs has 52K available, with a floor price of 0.6 ETH having just dropped live on OpenSea hours ago. Each NFT comes with a particular, non-disclosed value package that translates to winnings, opportunities, and experiences virtually and in the real world. With 23K owners already, this is a project that is unlikely to fail.
Bonus: The Paradox Metaverse is still hovering at a low floor price of 0.17 ETH on OpenSea. The team is working hard on building up to the token launch and game debut over the next 2-3 months.
