There\u2019s nothing quite like the feeling of waking up on a Monday and realizing you missed out on some incredible drops over the weekend.<\/p>\n

It can be truly disheartening to find out that an awesome project launched, minted and sold out all while you were tied up with a wedding, camping trip, or multiday metaverse bender.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t go FOMOing into anything just yet though, because every Monday, we\u2019re bringing you a roundup of the art, collectibles, airdrops and more you missed while you were away.<\/p>\n

Over the past year, Aku has undoubtedly become one of the most lovable characters in all of NFTs. As the main focus of a 10-chapter series created by Micah Johnson, Aku has gone on a fantastic series of adventures throughout 2021, with his story soon coming to a close in 2022.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, \u201cAku Chapter IX: The Mission\u201d was released as an open edition via Nifty Gateway. Priced at $999 each, the collection sold a total of 1,623 editions, exemplifying the vibrant community surrounding Johnson\u2019s coveted character. <\/p>\n

Towards the end of last week, RTFKT \u2014 creators of the popular CLONE X project \u2014 released a barrage of Tweets hinting at something to come. Although the digital wearables powerhouse simply announced that they would be making an announcement in the next week or so, that didn\u2019t stop the collection from experiencing a massive rise in secondary sales.<\/p>\n

Prior to the announcement, the CLONE X floor was consistently sitting around 6 \u2013 7 ETH. But over the weekend RTFKT continued their cryptic Tweetstorm, which caused the floor to skyrocket to a whopping 18 ETH.= by Monday morning. Considering the news of Nike acquiring the company initiated a similar pump back in December, it seems collectors aren\u2019t taking any chances on the potential impact of RTFKTs forthcoming announcement.<\/p>\n

A Bathing Ape (BAPE) made a splash over the weekend by teasing its entrance into the NFT ecosystem. Taking to social media, the influential streetwear brand dropped a single, cryptic image of linking to a new account<\/a> and website for what they\u2019re calling the (B)APETAVERSE. Billed as BAPE\u2019s very own NFT community, the brand is gearing up for what will likely be a large-scale PFP project complete with membership benefits.<\/p>\n
