Director David Lynch and The Band Interpol Join Forces For NFT Collection

This isn’t the first time that legendary director David Lynch works with Interpol. In 2010, Lynch’s animated short film “I Touch a Red Button Man” used Interpol’s song “Lights” as a soundtrack.

Solana-Based Yield Aggregator Tulip Raises $5M

Solana-based decentralized finance (DeFi) app Tulip raised $5 million in a bid to expand its yield aggregation and crypto lending products. The seven-month-old protocol, which at press time held over $800 million in cryptossets, said Jump Capital and Alameda Research led the “strategic investment.” Tulip recently rebranded; it won a $25,000 hackathon prize as “SolFarm” in June.

A  shortage of Solana-focused engineers could complicate that goal, he said, underscoring the heated competition for DeFi…

The iconic art piece is based on a publicity photograph of Marilyn Monroe for the 1953 noir thriller Niagara. Regardless of the actress’ undeniable appeal, the photo itself didn’t stand out until Warhol put a spin on it, turning it into one of the 20th century’s…
