Gucci & Yuga make it official 👀
Gucci x Yuga Labs, Art Blocks marketplace, and DYDX v4
50 shades of blue
GM Baos,
Happy Friday or Saturday, depending on where you are in the world 🙂
Today we cover:
Gucci x Yuga Labs
Art Blocks NFT marketplace
DYDX Cosmos blockchain
Gucci & Yuga Labs multi-year partnership
This isn't Gucci's first venture into web3... 👀They've previously done a collab with 10KTF (a start up acquired by Yuga Labs), started accepting payments in $APE, and bought land in The Sandbox.
Not many details on the partnership have been released, but we know that Gucci will play a part in Otherside and 10KTF. They tweeted, "Stay tuned as a new narrative takes shape, blurring the boundaries between the physical and digital."
Continuing to explore the Metaverse, the House comes together with @yugalabs. Stay tuned as a new narrative takes shape, blurring the boundaries between the physical and digital.

Art Blocks NFT marketplace
Art Blocks launched a secondary marketplace. They created the marketplace to address 3 problems: authenticity, scams, and royalties. Because Art Blocks has always wanted to support artists, there are no platform fees and creator royalties will be fully honored.
Considering the ongoing war between major NFT marketplaces, it wouldn't be surprising to see community marketplaces become the future. What are your thoughts? 🧐
🧵 Hey y’all. In response to diminishing enforcement of creator royalties, we launched our own secondary market… It’s a big deal, and you can try it out on our newest Curated release, Cargo: bit.ly/40mv0NE. Let’s get started and find out why this matters so much 👇

Wen DYDX v4? SOON
A year ago DYDX announced that they were building their own blockchain using the Cosmos SDK. This week, they launched the v4 private testnet and said that the platform should be completely on Cosmos by the end of September.
Why move away from ETH? It got to the point where ETH can't process transactions fast enough. Interestingly, DYDX isn't the first decentralized exchange (DEX) to announce a move to the Cosmos ecosystem. SushiSwap also plans to build on Cosmos, as it allows devs to spin up a blockchain that is tailored to their needs.
We are back with another update regarding our progress building out the dYdX V4 Blockchain; we are excited to announce the completion of our third of five milestones! You can read more at:
