20/08/2021 PUNKS Comic: What You Should Know About This Surging NFT That's Attracting Venture Capitalist Money

 
 

Volume and demand for non-fungible tokens have been surging. One project that is climbing up the leaderboards is PUNKS Comic, an NFT comic series drawn by Marvel and DC Comics artist Chris Wahl.

A burning mechanism, new NFT launch and more items for PUNKS are attracting venture capitalists to the NFT.

What Happened: Loup Ventures, a research-driven venture capitalist firm known for bullish calls on Tesla Inc (NASDAQ: TSLA), Apple Inc (NASDAQ: AAPL) and other technology stocks shared thoughts on NFTs and the hype of PUNKs in a weekend email.

“Anyone who bought a PUNKS Comic in early July is up over 4x in Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) terms and more in fiat given the appreciations of ETH,” Loup managing partner Doug Clinton said.

Clinton saw PUNKS Comic as a “no brainer” investment for NFTs because of the NFT boom and the potential of the project.

“When an NFT creates a return stream to the owner, the NFT can be valued on tangibles rather than intangibles.”

Clinton compares valuing an NFT such as PUNKS similar to buying a share of Apple based on a valuation of future earnings instead of YOLOing AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc (NYSE: AMC) based on it being a “meme stock.”

PUNKS Comic was launched by Pixel Vault and in May could be minted for 0.2 ETH, or around $720 at the time.

“That may seem like a lot for a comic but not when you consider the future cash flows it could generate,” Clinton said.

Pixel Vault builds a mechanism that provides future assets for the owner. Owners of PUNKS can stake or burn their comic after purchase. Staking a comic gets a user $PUNKS tokens over a 24 month period and fractional ownership of 16 CryptoPunks valued at 600 Ethereum when the comic launched.

Users who burn the comic get a Founder’s DAO, which gives ownership of $PUNKS tokens and other crypto assets.

In July, a new NFT project called Metahero was announced by Pixel Vault. Anyone who owns a PUNKS Comic can purchase a Mintpass that can be exchanged for a future Metahero.

Michael Jordan - Crown Collection
“All you needed was one little match to start that whole fire.”- Michael Jordan. In regards to both the action on the court and everything that happened off of it, Jordan provided a spark that changed the future in so many different ways throughout his tenure in Chicago, and even decades after the fact. And, in the end, he got everything that he wanted when he began his NBA journey: he turned the team and organization as a whole into a respected program, like the dynasties he looked up to as a child. Having steered the Chicago Bulls to an incredible six championship rings in eight years from 1991-1998, scooping up five MVP awards in the process, Jordan is one of just a handful of superstars who have truly transcended their sports. Jordan and Scottie Pippen’s (right) relationship both on and off the pitch was arguably the foundation of the Bulls’ incredible success. Scottie Pippen was present with Jordan for all six championships in eight seasons. Dennis Rodman (left) His relentless and smart play perfectly suited what Jordan and Jackson wanted to do to take the Bulls to greater heights. Although his exploits off the court earned him special fame, Rodman was unquestionably one of the greatest basketball players of his generation and one of the finest defensive players in the history of the game.
