Today’s NFTCulture daily digest covers several important developments in the NFT industry, including a misleading headline regarding Dapper Labs’ court case, an airdrop from Collab Land, and a cryptic teaser video from Coinbase.
A recent Bloomberg headline claiming that NBA Top Shot Moments NFTs are securities caused panic in the NFT and crypto communities, but the headline was incorrect. The judge has not ruled on the case, and instead denied Dapper’s motion to dismiss the class-action complaint against them. Dapper is being sued in Federal Court for allegedly violating securities laws by offering NFTs for sale without filing appropriate registration statements.
Collab Land is airdropping its governance token, $COLLAB, to its Top 100 Discord communities, NFT holders, and more. The airdrop begins today and could potentially see a brief run from those who missed out on previous airdrops.
Coinbase launched a cryptic teaser video that features a blue circle inscribed with 02.23.23, leading to rampant speculation about what it could mean. NFT sleuths found that several Coinbase employees held this NFT, causing it to gain traction and a 5.4 ETH floor.
