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.

NFT royalties have become a hotly debated topic lately. Royalties are fees paid to the NFT’s creator whenever secondary sales are made. Some projects have released their NFTs for free on the expectation that if the collection became popular they would be compensated through royalties. Now that assumption is being challenged by the rise of NFT marketplaces that do not pay royalties.
The royalty debate was sparked by the release of SudoSwap, an innovative new NFT marketplace that uses an “automated market maker.” Similar to Uniswap, and unlike traditional marketplaces like OpenSea, users buy and sell NFTs from a pool instead of from other people.
SudoSwap has proven to be immensely popular and has already achieved close to 10% of OpenSea’s volume.
The problem is that SudoSwap does not pay royalties. And if it continues to grow in size then NFT creators could see a big source of revenue dry up.
At the heart of the issue is the fact that NFT royalties have always been a voluntary standard. There is no way to enforce royalties. Creators have relied on their collectors to use marketplaces that respect royalties. This worked until SudoSwap created a marketplace whose advantages—such as instant liquidity—have lured many collectors.
Now NFT creators are being forced to adapt. Royalties are no longer guaranteed. What innovation will replace that lost potential income?

It used to be that once minted, NFTs stayed the same. The NFT’s image, or video, didn’t change on a day-to-day basis. This basic assumption is now being challenged by a new kind of NFT that is designed to be dynamic.
These so-called “living NFTs” query oracles to get information about the world and then change themselves based on the data.
One recent project that has pioneered the dynamic NFT approach is Finiliar.
Finiliar NFTs change their mood based on the price of various cryptocurrencies. If the price of their associated cryptocurrency goes down then the Finiliar gets sad. If it goes up, they are happy.
Dynamic NFTs clearly have a lot of potential. The implications for the Metaverse and on-chain gaming, for example, could be profound. We’ll be keeping an eye on this trend as we expect many more living NFTs will be released in the months ahead.

Lazy’s Rabbit Hole is great for when when you’re searching for visually similar artworks. However, when you’re in the mood for something different, you’ll want to check out BizarroWorld.
Unlike the RabbitHole, BizarroWorld displays NFTs that are visually the opposite. It is a counterintuitive approach that yields wild results.
To access BizarroWorld, click the three dots on any NFT and select “BizarroWorld.”
Here’s an example of how we recently used BizarroWorld’s visual anti-similarity engine to find new artworks.
Browsing NFTs based on difference, not similarity, is a great way to expose yourself to wide ranging artwork. It is impossible to know what you’ll discover in BizarroWorld.
Explore BizarroWorld and let us know what you think. If you’d like to integrate the Rabbit Hole or BizarroWorld into your website, get in touch.
