Women’s Day in the Metaverse, Potion Unlock NFT auction, and Papa John’s brand new bag

NFT platform HeyLayer has partnered with the Stacks Foundation to host an event in the vSpace Metaverse to celebrate International Women’s Day.

The ‘HerNFT’ event will feature the work of more than 30 women nonfungible token (NFT) artists, including Goldy Succi, Mother Pop, Kaylee Hawley, and others. Their work on the Stacks blockchain will be on display in a virtual gallery curated specifically for this event which starts on March 8.

Participants in the event will be able to purchase NFTs on the HeyLayer Marketplace. 2.5% of sales from the event will be donated to the Just Love Film Academy charitable organization for Ibero-American female filmmakers.

CEO and Co-founder of HeyLayer Alla Koretsky said “We created HerNFT as a way to tap into more feminine energy and celebrate and showcase more female points of view within NFT art.” She added:

“These women all have something that they want to say and when it comes to our theme of #BreaktheBias, art can be a very powerful medium of getting that message across.”

PotionLabs NFT auction to fund project and community

Potion Protocol developers PotionLabs have launched the Potion Unlock NFT auction to help it complete the “aggressive decentralization” by maximizing community involvement and sidestep the pitfalls of traditional project launches.

The funds raised in the auction of 10,000 unique NFTs will support the growth of the community and the Potion Protocol project moving forward. It will be a Dutch auction that runs from March 14 to 24.

Each NFT in the collection contains a small portion of the code for Potion Protocol. When all the lines of code are combined, the code will become part of the public domain. This means that community members are encouraged to closely collaborate to release the code rather than work against each other.

Major early investors in Potion Protocol include Polychain, Pantera, MetaCartel, Compound’s Robert Leshner, and others. Potion Unlocked is a novel project launch mechanic that debuted on Feb. 22 by Potion Labs.

The newest thing Papa John’s has is filled with cheese

Global pizza chain Papa John’s is giving away 19,840 NFTs meant to promote its new Cheddar range in at least six countries including the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Spain, Ecuador, and El Salvador.

The NFT Hot Bags collection will display nine different bag designs based on iconic pizza delivery bags. They were designed by NFT artists Tom Hoss and Ash Sketch.

Papa John’s minted the NFTs on the Tezos blockchain, which it says is an “energy-efficient blockchain, which means the NFTs are also energy-efficient.”
