NiftyNoon: Welcome to Azuki's Hilumia

Azuki announces the future of their universe with Hilumia (January 13, 2023)

Nifty Thought

• Azuki’s announcement has polarized the NFT space. On one hand, the Azuki community is seemingly excited about the project and the future of the Azuki universe. On the other hand, many people were expecting some more tangible value to be returned to them in the form of an airdrop or airdrop announcement. While it would have been trivial for Chiru Labs to dilute their ecosystem with an expected airdrop, their restraint in not doing may prove to be a sign of strength in the long run. Azuki is building a web3 brand that is durable, not as a result of greed, but due to people actually aligning with the brand. Although nothing written on NiftyNoon should be taken as financial advice, we strongly believe that Azuki is one of the best-positioned NFT projects moving forward.
