Fly Frogs Are Hoppin
These guys have not been lazy. There’s always something happening in the pond and the variety of the activities is staggering. Some of them are created by the team, while others are made by the community for the community. The main event so far has been the mating season, a love fest that has given birth to some great offspring.
Introducing the Tadpoles
Put two Fly Frogs together, feed them a fly and give them some privacy and you will be minting a Tadpole. A clever play utilizing the Polygon blockchain keeps the minting price for these lovely little weirdos very low. The Tadpoles themselves are printed on the Ethereum blockchain when all is said and done.
The Plot Thickens
There’s a frog version of Sherlock Holmes hopping about in the pond. Meet Detective Frog, who usually solves mysteries - but this time he created one for the members of the pond to solve.
The objective was to save Frog #8103 from a villain yet to be uncovered .The solver of the mystery could win NFTs and cold hard ETH.
You had to find and puzzle together clues on Twitter, OpenSea and even Etherscan to solve it. The Frog Army didn’t give up until the villain was found and it turned out to be the Sneaky Salamander, that then was minted as an NFT into the Doodle Pond which is filled with 1/1 NFTs made by the Fly Frogs. In the doodle pond you’ll find all kinds of interesting 1/1 NFTs that all have their own stories behind their existence.
These are just two highlights from what’s been going on in the busiest NFT community on the web3 planet, we’re considering hiring a beat reporter who follows everything that happens in the pond so we can keep up.
In other news the price of the Fly Frogs exploded around 4000% last week showing that there might be some big movements coming soon. I wouldn’t sleep on this project.
Check out our introduction to the Fly Frogs here: Fly Frogs - Making The Internet Fun Again.
Studio TBD has added a bunch of Fly Frogs to our DAO Collection. When we launch our own NFT membership token in early February we will look to add to this position.
Untamed Elephants
The from rugs to riches story continues under new leadership.
The herd is moving. Adam who took over this project last year has together with his team done some excellent work with this project and there is only good news to report.
The herd itself is also under new leadership since the Matriarchs have started minting. These new NFTs have taken the style one step further and came out super stylish.
The original plants are also getting an art update that is coming soon and it’s going to be a huge lift for the holders. We smuggled this image out of the verified channel in the discord and the difference is quite striking.
Adam is also taking part of the community on a trip to Sri Lanka for the most ambitious IRL event in the history of NFTs.
The trip will take the visitors on a tour of the entire country with an emphasis on elephants led by representatives from Saving Ganesh, the charity that the project allocates some of the proceeds to. They'll be on-the-job with their elephant rescue activities so the guests will get to see the work up close.
That’s a story you can tell when someone scoffs at your jpegs and mutters about right clicking…
The Untamed Elephants are doing everything right and we wouldn’t be surprised to see that project getting a lot of attention when the outside world wakes up to the revolution that is NFTs.
Check out our initial story on this project here: Saving The Elephants In Order To Save The Elephants: Part 1 & Part 2.
Studio TBD has an initial position in the Untamed Elephants DAO Collection. When we launch our own NFT membership token in early February we will look to add to the herd.
LinksDAO - We’re Buying a Golf Course Y’all!
They’ve already landed a partnership with Five Iron Golf, the leading indoor golf and entertainment experience. Holders of the LinksDAO membership token will enjoy discounts on lessons, food and drinks, and fitting services.
You can check out the full press release here.
LinksDAO is one week in and it feels like this project has been around forever already because so much has happened. No NFT project has ever gotten this much attention from the outside world this early on its journey. Tapping into real world lifestyle is what is going to speed up the adoption to web3 in general and NFTs specifically over the coming months.
This is an inspiring project and we can’t wait to show you what Studio TBD DAO is planning in terms of tapping into real world lifestyle. More news on that coming next week…

Mutant Cats Keeps Bringing DeFi Vibes to NFTs
The Mutant Cats seem to be unstoppable. They have a Crypto Punk, a Fidenza, a series of Bored and Mutant Apes and a ton of Cool Cats in their vault together with over 600 ETH. Check out their collection here.
A financial powerhouse in the world of NFTs and that is just the baseline of what these geniuses are doing. They launched, staking for $FISH, the Mutant Gorillas who you can stake to get serum to cure your own Mutant Cat into a Cured Cat. And these Cured Cats look gooooood. We staked our Mutant Cat and burned through our $FISH to be able to cure our little mutated feline fren, and we have some big plans for it…
The Mutant Cats trade at a pretty approachable .25 ETH right now which we think might be a very interesting entry point…
Check out our first story on the Mutant Cats here: The Mutant Cats Are Coming
