NiftyNoon: COCKPUNCH by Tim Ferriss Explodes in Market

COCKPUNCH dominates NFT volume as traders ready up for the next phase of this Tim Ferriss project (December 8, 2022)

Nifty Thought

• COCKPUNCH by Tim Ferriss has captured the attention of the entire NFT community. While many question the project’s long-term viability, particularly as Tim Ferriss has explicitly stated he is ready to leave the project at any moment, it is clear that COCKPUNCH is a new form of NFT. Rather than marketing itself as a piece of a new company, COCKPUNCH simply positions itself as a piece of a new storytelling medium. By every sense of the word, it is the product that is being sold to consumers. The success of this project in the long term may attract a variety of content creators to enter web3. For that reason alone, it is an important project to watch.

• Blur suggest OpenSea’s on-chain royalty enforcement is anti-competitive:

  Blur @blur_io

  Blur adopted the filter registry last month, but the current OS policy makes creators choose between earning revenue on OS or Blur, but not both. This policy is not always enforced. Pirate Nation has been earning royalties on both platforms and has earned more from Blur than OS.

  Upon further investigation, we’ve come to realize @opensea’s new policies around creators fees. For new contracts they ask you to include “on-chain enforcement” when what they really mean is: block these competitors in YOUR smart contract or we’re denying your royalty payment https://t.co/UAyda36HfV
