“The market has grown uninterested in low-quality, rug-pull pump-n-dumps and vaguely conceived, cash-grab metaverses. A gentle stream of rubbish profile footage has turned off shoppers. It’s time for one thing contemporary.”

Winkles & Flam Co-Creator Dele Nuga provides: “We’re thrilled to associate with OpenSea Drops and grateful to the geniuses at Mintplex Labs for devising an answer for our unconventional launch technique. We imagine Winkles & Flam would be the first of many initiatives to maneuver to a character-based, weekly launch technique, specializing in character, storytelling and group.”
