12/12 Alright, back to the top to read through 4 compelling reasons to purchase an NFT + the impact of remembering your why! #womeninnfts
1/12 As #nftcollectors, it’s crucial to be authentic about our reasons for purchasing. We’ve gotta know when we’re genuinely passionate about community / utility / art, vs trying to make a buck. No wrong answers in my opinion, as long as you’re honest with yourself. 🧵

11/12 All 4 reasons can be valid; just remember your why. If you buy something b/c of its high utility for you personally (e.g., donating to a nonprofit), don’t get mad if it doesn’t moon. If you buy to make a profit, focus on what the market values (vs what you find valuable).

10/12 Example: @MyBFF bracelets enabled holders to mint a YOU NFT, so therefore the YOU mint date was an event to watch. Holders who are hoping to make a profit on their bracelets should consider what additional events might be on the horizon.

9/12 (4) You believe that someone will want to buy your NFT for more than you paid. This requires believing there will be an event that will cause the value of the NFT to increase. You should have an event(s) in mind and consistently evaluate when you think the time is right.

8/12 Example: @worldofwomennft Galaxy. Their “starmap” signals compelling plans, and their founding team + key advisors represent a wealth of experience.

7/12 (3) You believe the planned utility justifies the current price and feel confident in the team’s execution. This requires knowing what you value, the roadmap, and the team’s credibility. You could sell once you’ve achieved planned utility or if any of those 3 things change.

6/12 Example: I learn a ton from @decentraliens that helps me better collector and contributor in this space.

5/12 (2) You believe the current utility is meaningful enough to justify the current price. If so, you shouldn’t worry about changing floor prices. Consider selling after achieving the utility (an advantage of Web3, imagine if you could get your money back post-college degree)!

4/12 Example: @lisachowNFT I find her concepts cool enough that I would be proud to own regardless of floor changes (and am glad to have a few of her pieces from @thehugxyz).

3/12 (1) You believe the art alone justifies its current price. If this is the case, awesome! Buy it and don’t even think about the floor price or utility.

2/12 I can think of 4 main reasons to purchase (assuming of course the item is in your budget), and each has their own implications of when to sell.

Major news from @BossBeautiesNFT: seed funding from @OfflineVentures, @SerenaVentures, @fcubedvc, and @WiedenKennedy! We know this team can deliver (remember the partnerships with @mattel and @marvel?), and now they're even better positioned to win! #womeninnfts
