Can NFTs lead the charge to a full blown bull run? It’s still early to say, but with the outing of bad actors and a recent inflow of brands into the space, we see the redemption of trust around digital artifacts. This year has already seen its fair share of scams, hacks, and frauds, all within its first 1.5 months. The web3 ecosystem pushes forward in full force, as crypto prices seem to modulate in a stable zone.
