Dear frens of the enterverse, 

Summer is officially over, and with that, we’re turning up the heat here in the enter HQ. While the last month has been on the quieter side announcement-wise, we’ve been immensely happy to see a rise of activity in the enterverse from creators and collectors alike. To see all those gems being dug up from the archives and new ones being added for future enjoyment is an absolute thrill, and a lot of collectors have secured themselves some great steals over the past month. 

Find a good handful of the amazing new works that have dropped this month, and a little in-depth info on some of the enter artist-driven initiatives we’ve seen unroll this month gathered in this recap. 

Even though announcements have been few, lots of work is going on behind the scenes to ensure a successful launch of the $ENTER IDO and more, which we're excited to shed more light on in the following time.

Strays 🧬 - Officially sold out!

We kicked off August with a Strays giveaway on Twitter, to give an opportunity for new people to hold a Stray of their own as we gear up for Project Symbiosis, where the Strays offer additional voting power through emission boosters. The task was to apply to adopt a Stray, and we got some brilliant submissions from lovely potential foster homes. Congratulations to the winner, with a soppy movie-inspired storyline - we’re sure Stray 58 will be well taken care of. 

Stay tuned for new opportunities to join the squad through giveaways or secondary listings, as the Strays are now officially 100% sold out of mint and free to embark on their mission to discover the mysteries of this strange (crypto) world we live in.

Next to the Stray utilities of token gated merch, chats, and emission boosters in Project Symbiosis, the Strays are up to a story-driven mission of their own. We can’t wait to embark on the journey of the Strays' purpose and to let the story evolve, now that all the Strays are out and ready to fly.  

Minor Updates

This month we’ve introduced a couple of small updates in the enterverse. 

• A minting bot in the secret Stray chat to keep tabs on the Stray minting activities. 

• Change in the Featured NFT section logic, which allows the featuring of previously sold NFTs, meaning opportunities to highlight more gems from the archive. 
• New forms for artist onboarding, Featured Artist applications & blog submissions. 
• Bug fixes.
  
  

Artist projects in the enterverse

The most beautiful part of the enterverse, is the brilliant initiatives that flourish in the community amongst artists and collectors, banding together to create awesome projects. This month has been particularly interesting in that regard. 

We’ve already covered the Enteria project in previous recaps, and if you’ve been active in the community for a while, you might have caught up on one of the previous Enteria streams dedicated to showcasing this expanding world, made by and in collaboration with several enter creators and even community team members. The broad and intricate world of Enteria is accompanied by a soundtrack: “Compilation Tribes Of Enteria, Vol. 1” is now available internationally on all streaming platforms! 

Another brilliant initiative we’ve had the pleasure of seeing come together lately is W3C3, a growing artist and collector community, with several of the Featured Artists taking the lead of the project. The stakeable art collection is already out on enter.market, and holders will receive a collector key that can be staked beginning September 1. Get ready to bask in beautiful art and receive rewards in the form of $NFTART. We can highly recommend checking out the W3C3 website for the full project overview and jumping on one of their Twitter Spaces.

This month we’ve taken a deep dive into a topic that’s been raging hot in the NFT community the last couple of months, NFT scarcity, and revisited the ever-so-popular topic of the AI surge we’ve seen flourish since Midjourney and OpenAI took the stage last year.
