Last year, Bankless entered the podcast collectibles space with a bang. Our Phase I collection was a novel journey into onchain media and gave our fans the opportunity to collect some of the most exciting moments in Bankless history.
While Phase I was a big success – with over 500 unique collectors and 2500+ mints – rising gas prices and community feedback on the weekly mints led us to take a step back and re-examine our onchain strategy.
