We have made the decision to close the general chat and continue providing more value for active token holders. (We will continue to allow established artists who request access to gain access to the platform in the form of gifted tokens from NFTCulture staff). Additionally, we\u2019re developing two bots that will drive community engagement and rewards.\u00a0 Finally, I have passed the merch baton to Ashley who will make sure we finally get it done in a reasonable amount of time. We\u2019ve been working on quite a few things but waiting for the bull market to start to return to implement them. More announcements to follow.<\/p>\n
