Yuga Labs is gearing up to launch a new game in the Otherside metaverse, but it’s not 3D,
while NFT trading volume for NFL All Day pumped 570% over the past seven days.
The Adidas /// Studio, or Triple Stripes Studio, has launched a Web3-based digital artist in
residency program to showcase and support budding creators in the nonfungible token (NFT) space.
The program was announced on Aug. 31 and will officially launch on Sept. 4 via a series of online and in-person events until Sept. 11.
According to the program’s website, the aim is to collaborate with
up-and-coming artists and provide a “creative pathway for digital artists to further connect with the brand and their passionate community of collectors and connoisseurs.”
Adra Kandil, also known as Dearnostalgia and Moto (Monkeemoto), has been
unveiled as the first two resident artists of the program, and things will kick off with the sale of two open edition and two limited edition NFT art sales on Sept. 6.

Bored Ape Yacht Club creator Yuga Labs announced on Aug. 31 that it will
roll out the open beta for its upcoming Otherside metaverse-based Legends of the Mara (LoTM) later this month.

Mutant Ape fetches 500 ETH despite downtrend
In other Yuga-related news, a Mutant Ape Yacht Club (MAYC) NFT sold for a whopping 500 ETH ($817,000) on Sept.1.
The NFT in question is MAYC NFT #30002, which is the only token in the collection to have the Mega Zombie trait. It was snapped up by NFT whale and Taiwanese music celebrity Jeffrey Huang, also known as MachiBigBrother.
Despite its rarity, it certainly marks an eye-watering sale, given that Yuga Labs’ NFT
projects have been facing significant downturns in 2023, with the MAYC floor price currently sitting at around 5.2 ETH ($8,500).

According to data from CryptoSlam, the NFT trading volume for Dapper Labs’ NFL All Day project has surged 570% over the past seven days.
That 570% increase marks the biggest trading volume increase out of any
of the top 20 highest-selling NFT projects over the past week, with roughly $976,000 worth of NFL ALL Day NFTs changing hands.
While it is hard to pinpoint a specific reason for that significant uptick in interest,

On Aug. 26, the project unveiled “dynamic” NFTs that gradually update or evolve to showcase the player’s best highlights of the new season, adding an extra layer of interactivity with the tokens.
