The NFT bridges are coming… will collectors use them?
A user bridges a PudyPenguin to Optimism from Ethereum using the Quix bridge.
Earlier this week Quix, an NFT marketplace on the layer 2 blockchain Optimism, released an NFT bridge that allows collectors to move their Ethereum NFTs to Optimism and back again. Although NFT bridges have been theorized for a long time, Quix’s bridge is one of the first to link Ethereum to a layer two.
By now, many crypto users are familiar with the concept of a bridge. In simple terms, bridges transport tokens between blockchains. Until now, these tokens have been fungible. Now the concept has been extended to include NFTs.
Advocates of bridging argue that it’ll allow for cheaper NFT marketplaces because the gas fees on layer two blockchains are less than on layer one blockchains. These cheaper fees won’t impact the inherent value of the NFT, the argument goes, because the NFT can be bridged back to the layer one blockchain at any time.
Critics of bridging point to the numerous and frequent bridge hacks. In fact, some of the biggest hacks in crypto have been carried out against bridges—such as, the recent $550+ million hack of Binance’s BNB Chain bridge. Critics argue that bridges are inherently risky and therefore not suitable for NFTs.
Ultimately, the fact is NFT bridges now exist. And we can reasonably assume that many more will be released in the weeks and months ahead. The real question is: will collectors use them?
Will you use NFT bridges? If so, which blockchains do you want to bridge between? If you will not use NFT bridges, is there anything that would make you change your mind or is the risk simply too great?

For many people, NFTs are synonymous with visual art. That might be changing as big players in the world of music are increasingly embracing NFTs.
Earlier this week, Billboard, a mainstay publication of the music industry, declared: “there are signs of life in the music NFT space again after a slow summer.” Noting that Grammy Award-winning producers are starting to release music NFT projects, and that the late David Bowie made a debut on the blockchain, Billboard reported that the sale of music NFTs exceeded 1,434 ETH (around $2 million) in September.
And it is not just big name artists who are embracing audio NFTs. We are also seeing the rise of blockchain-based Digital Audio Workstations, such as Arpeggi Labs, that simplify the process of creating on-chain music. When an artist uploads a sound or song to Arpeggi, the sound is registered on-chain and the creator receives NFT as a certificate of their contribution—an innovation that could disrupt a core component of the music creation process.
From albums that share royalties with NFT owners to on-chain collections of remixable music, the potential of music NFTs is starting to become clearer.
Have you collected any music NFTs? What motivated you? If you haven’t explored music NFTs yet, what is holding you back?

In a recent poll of Lazy.com users, we learned that utility is the #1 most valued feature in an NFT project. This week, we want to explore some of the many different ways that NFTs have added utility to their collection.
There are, at least, four kinds of NFT utility:
Exclusive perks & access to communities and tools
One of the most common forms of utility is access to exclusive perks, communities, tools, or opportunities. For instance, some NFTs can be used to unlock exclusive in-game content or rewards, or to gain access to private chats.
Financial Benefits like passive income opportunities
Another common use case for NFTs is to provide financial benefits such as passive income opportunities. For example, some NFTs earn a secondary token when held.
Fundraising and support for impact projects or charitable causes
NFTs can also be used to make a social impact. For instance, some NFTs have been created specifically to raise funds for various charitable causes. This type of utility is sometimes known as “NFTs for Good”.
Real world applications
Finally, NFTs can be used to streamline and authenticate existing services and processes. For example, a live event might use NFTs as entry tickets.
This is not an exhaustive list and more forms of NFT utility will likely be invented. If we missed anything, send us an email at info@lazy.com and tell us all about it!

Poll Results: What do collectors value most in an NFT? Utility and Beauty.
In last week’s newsletter, we asked “What do you value most in an NFT?”
The results are now in. And, to be honest, we’re a bit surprised.
Utility was ranked #1 with 38% of respondents picking it. Next was Beauty (23%) and Technological Innovation (18%).
To our surprise, community—a previously much touted selling point for many NFTs—ranked last. Is this because of recent drama in various NFT communities? Or is there another reason why 91% of collectors valued a different aspect more highly?
Now that we know Utility is #1 for many collectors, we’re curious to hear about the NFT projects that have the most utility. Send your picks to us at info@lazy.com and we might feature them in a future newsletter.
