Preface:

Cats have always been loved by people. For example, famous writers such as Natsume Soseki and Haruki Murakami have written works with cats as the theme. Even the literary giant Hemingway said "Goodnight, kitty" before he committed suicide. It can be seen that people's thinking about cats is no longer just raising and being raised, but a spiritual support, a reflection of human life from the perspective of cats. Today's project is also closely related to this theme, that is, the project "LLAC" from Japan, live like a cat. This article is only some personal investigations and opinions. There is no commercial cooperation in the whole process, and it does not constitute investment advice. DYOR~

Art style:

LLAC, an NFT with cartoon cat illustrations, has 22 cats in different poses, which are very healing. The meaning of the project is also very interesting. With the concept of "living like a cat", it points out that everyone should find a comfortable way of life that suits them. It is hoped that everyone can live according to their own preferences to feel and enjoy life. At the same time, the NFT pictures are also very cute. The Q version of the two-headed cat feels very suitable for avatars and emoji expressions.

Team Information:

Compared to the NFT itself, I think there is actually more interesting information about the project leaders and operations. The project currently has three main leaders, namely designer and painter Nekomori Umuko, a very mature digital illustrator, who also drew this NFT.

The second is Shuhei, the founder of the project. His experience is quite exciting. From being in debt of 5 million yen, he accumulated a wealth of 50 million yen through four years of hard work in the web3 field and achieved a great turnaround on Xianyu. His current main job is to open offline and online web3 lectures. More than 22,000 students have learned about web3 from him, and LLAC is his first NFT project.

The last person, who is responsible for project operations, is Ikehaya. If you may not have heard of the previous two, then you may have heard of Ikehaya. Yes, he is the founder of Japan's largest NFT collections Crypto Ninja and Ninja Dao. The market value of his NFT collections such as Crypto Ninja Partners has exceeded 20,000 ETH, and the floor price is also very strong. The fan stickiness and community atmosphere are extremely strong. It is no exaggeration to say that he is a veteran in Japan's web3 community. He or his team can be seen in many popular projects in Japan, just like the previous CNP series, which was also launched by his Ninja organization. The current SNS fans have exceeded 450,000, and this time he is the operation consultant of LLAC, which is also very interesting, because according to the information revealed now, Ikehaya joined LLAC alone, not the entire organization and LLAC. Personally, I speculate that they may want to weaken the correlation between the two NFT collections and reduce the mutual influence between the two projects.

personal opinion:

Finally, let's talk about the project itself. At present, the physical peripherals of the project can actually be purchased in the e-store of the official website. The main types are stickers and color cards, but most of them have been sold out. It can be seen that the audience of this kind of cartoon cat pattern is actually very wide, and other production plans such as clothes or bags have also begun to be put on the agenda. Presumably, with the complementary relationship with peripheral products, the possibility of llac going viral in reality is also increasing. At the same time, offline and online lectures of the project will also be held, but the content may also be mainly aimed at web3 newcomers rather than investors. This is also what I think is the general direction of the web3 field in Japan at present. Like the previous shikibu, I feel that Japanese web3 practitioners will pay more attention to the spread of web3 culture in Japan, rather than rushing to harvest leeks. First, make the plate bigger and have fresh blood constantly joining in. Only then will this market be vibrant and have more possibilities. While spreading culture as a teacher, I am also attracting popularity for my project, thereby achieving a stronger consensus among players. I think this may be the key factor for Japanese projects to still maintain an excellent floor level in the current turbulent market.
