Let\u2019s face it: The NFT space moves really fast. Considering how quickly things can change in the metaverse, a week in NFTs might as well be a month IRL.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t get us wrong \u2014 the more people onboarded into the space, the merrier. But because of the constant influx of great art and ideas, it\u2019s becoming increasingly difficult to keep up with all the news, launches, and general happenings.<\/p>\n

Well, you can put the days of endless Twitter and Discord scrolling behind you as we pull together a weekly list of upcoming NFT drops you definitely don\u2019t want to miss. Here\u2019s what to look out for this week.<\/p>\n
