NFT Hot Spots

1. Trump-themed RTR token controversy caused the NFT series Kanpai Pandas floor price to plummet by 45%

On August 9, the floor price of the NFT series Kanpai Pandas fell sharply after the team was suspected of being involved in promoting a Trump-themed token called "Restore the Republic (RTR)". According to Blur data, the floor price of the NFT series Kanpai Pandas fell 37.44% in 24 hours and 40.13% in the past 7 days. The floor price fell from 0.775 ETH to a low of 0.42 ETH on August 9, a drop of 45%. The current floor price is 0.46 ETH, worth $1,220. The drop in the floor price of the series is widely attributed to its founder "Ice Bagz" and his team members promoting the RTR token, which is allegedly Trump's "official" token. However, Eric Trump, son of Donald Trump, strongly denied that the token had any connection with the Trump family. After the Trump family denied any connection with the RTR token, the price of the token plummeted by 95%. Because of this, the community started going after members of the Kanpai Pandas team as they were spotted promoting the token on X before any official statement from Trump. An X user going by the handle “Legacy Ape” shared a screenshot of a member of the Kanpai Pandas team promoting the token on X. On the other hand, another community member shared a screenshot claiming that Kanpai Labs was behind the Google ads for the token.

4. Arbitrum community launches vote to unlock token utility by enabling ARB staking

Golden Finance reported that according to the Snapshot governance page, Frisson, head of Tally's market operations, initiated a proposal vote in the Arbitrum community to "unlock token utility by enabling ARB staking", which will end on August 16. The proposal proposes to unlock ARB utility by enabling ARB staking and improve the governance and security of the Arbitrum protocol, but will not temporarily enable the distribution of fees to token holders. By staking ARB, token holders will be able to capture value by delegating tokens to users who actively participate in governance. The proposal will also implement a liquid staking ARB token (stARB) through the Tally protocol, which can automatically compound any future rewards, can be (re)staking, and is compatible with DeFi. In addition, the initiator of the proposal said that it will work with Arbitrum DAO to decide whether and how to fund the rewards and distribute the rewards between token holders and delegators.
