Halbzeit – 26/52 – und ein bisschen Müde . . . aber auch immer wieder ´excited´, wenn ich mich dann doch wieder in NFTspace und Metaverses vertiefe . . . Und trotz Bear-Market ist es doch eine beflügelnde Stimmung in all den Spaces, während man sich in good old Germany mental dem „MANGEL“ und „VERZICHT“ nähert . . .
dazu auch der LANZ & PRECHT Podcast Ausgabe VIERUNDVIERZIG:
https://www.podcast.de/episode/594815229/ausgabe-vierundvierzig
Perspektiven – neue Programme – Visionen – kreative Ansätze zum Umbau . . . Der Raum ist zu eng, der Space ist zu klein.
Hmm . . . ich will ja auch eher anregen als erklären.

Also Halbzeit – halftime going on with English . . .

OK selected.pictures NEWSFLASH turns to English. Hello world – hello NFTspace – hello metaverses.

Metaverse 2 – MONAVERSE

For smaller wallets ?? I have an eye on any metaverse options related to art crossing my way . . .

So I stopped at MONAVERSE some time ago . . . checked some pages, walked through the NEON CITY STREETS and passed away. Now I read at:

https://venturebeat.com/2022/06/30/mona-raises-14-6m-for-metaverse-platform-for-creators/

“ Mona raises $14.6M for metaverse platform for creators “

So I will offer some more time to get more insights.
