Creator of PFP NFT projects DeGods and Yoots, DeLabs, has launched a new website ahead of the upcoming unveiling of its DeGods Season III and yoots2 feature expansion in July 2023.<\/p>\n

The cryptic website appears inspired by the early Facebook days. DeLabs founder Rohun Frank Vora dubbed the site “performance art.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

The website would be an alternative to the conventional written roadmap approach, which it claimed is obtuse. According to the website, \u201cRoadmaps are stupid.\u201d<\/p>\n

Potential Features of Upcoming DeGods and Yoots NFTs<\/h2>\n

The website launch led community members to search for clues<\/u><\/a> to the hidden surprises and extra features (Easter eggs), speculating opportunities in-store for NFT holders in the upcoming features.<\/p>\n

Clues and teasers on the website suggest DeLabs may introduce female DeGod avatars in season III and modify its gamified DUST token model.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Also, it further suggested a new approach to NFT holders’ IP rights that broadens with current models.<\/p>\n

When introduced, the IP rights could allow NFT holders to become official license holders of a brand.\u00a0<\/p>\n

DeLabs unveiled a whitepaper<\/u> for Yoots in August 2022. The whitepaper outlined a proposal for a unique NFT intellectual property.\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, the NFT creator said the whitepaper, which isn’t available on the Yoots website, is only “an approximation of the plan.”<\/p>\n

The whitepaper detailed a potential copyright-style registration for the Yoots collection. In the Twitter Spaces Q&A, Frank shared insights into the IP rights\u2019 making process.<\/p>\n

He said the team spent the last seven months working with DeLabs legal firm to draft a new form of IP rights.<\/p>\n

The Thought Behind DeLab\u2019s New Website<\/h2>\n

Following the website announcement, Frank mentioned his affiliation with evocative branding during a Twitter Spaces Q&A<\/u><\/a> session.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He said that there’s something about the early Facebook days. Back then, social media was just about connecting with people in your network.<\/p>\n

Frank explained why he released the teaser website in the old-school Facebook page style. He said the internet is losing social connectedness as it expands.\u00a0<\/p>\n

While the continuous expansion makes good opportunities for creators to earn from good content, Frank thinks preserving social connectivity is crucial.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think that NFTs help you find your tribe on the internet. As a kid that grew up on the f*cking internet, I\u2019ve always wanted a tribe. We\u2019re going to try to build what we\u2019ve always wanted here,\u201d Frank said<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Following DeGod’s launch in 2021 by Frank, the NFT project has cultivated a community around exclusive real-world events and social connections.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Among these real-world events is the beach event<\/u><\/a> organized for DeGods NFT holders last Thursday, July 29.<\/p>\n

This strategy saw DeGods become the most valuable NFT project on the Solana<\/u><\/a> blockchain in 2022, prompting DeLabs to launch<\/u><\/a> the subsequent project dubbed Yoots.\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, DeGods and Yoots left the Solana blockchain in January 2023. DeGods migrated to the Ethereum mainnet, and Yoots migrated to Polygon<\/u><\/a>, an Ethereum layer-2 scaling network.<\/p>\n

\u00a0What drove Yoots into opting for Polygon was partly a $3 million grant<\/u><\/a> from Polygon Labs.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As of the time of writing, DeGods NFTs price is down 15.2% in the last 24 hours with a floor price of 7.469 ETH (about $14,632) on secondary markets.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Yoots NFT floor price is also down 15.8% over the past 24 hours at 1.45 ETH (approx. $2,839)
