06/08/2021 Mark Cuban’s NFT Platform Lazy.com Completes Polygon Integration

 

Billionaire entrepreneur Mark Cuban’s non-fungible tokens (NFT) platform, Lazy.com, has joined forces with Polygon, an Ethereum scaling solution offering cheaper transactions.

  • Polygon’s NFT-centric and gaming and metaverse hub Polygon Studios announced the integration on Thursday, stating it would help drive mainstream adoption of digital collectibles.

  • Users can now connect their Polygon wallet to Lazy.com, which also supports Ethereum-based NFTs.

  • Launched in March, Lazy.com is a digital art gallery designed to showcase NFTs as traditional art galleries work.

  • NFTs are all the rage this year, with sales volume surging to $2.5 billion in the first six months. That’s a 180-fold increase from the sales figure of $13.7 million in the first half of 2020.

  • The trading volume of NFTs on Ethereum reached a record high of $171 million last week, up 338% from the equivalent week in the previous month.

  • “NFTs still have their adoption hurdles, but none are as consequential as transaction fees and efficiency,” Cuban said in the press release shared with CoinDesk. “Polygon’s structured and easy-to-use scaling solution obliterates these barriers. I’m excited to see how the NFT space develops from here.”

  • Polygon is a scaling solution facilitating faster and cheaper transactions by running sidechains or tangential networks alongside the main Ethereum blockchain. Scaling refers to increasing the throughput of the system, as measured by transactions per second.

  • Several decentralized finance giants and NFT and gaming projects, including WeNew, NFT marketplaces Rarible, and OpenSea have partnered with Polygon to bypass high Ethereum transaction costs.

Auto-Erotic Sphinx with Toys
In this image, a giant sphinx spoons itself in erotic play within an aquatic styled environment littered by various denizens. These creatures include symbols and archetypes both current and nostalgic–each inhabiting a rootedness within mass cultural adolescence. Among the roster are Servbots, video game inspired mushrooms, a Pacman-like creature, a distant sea faring rubber duck, creatures sporting the symbols reminiscent of popular anime, and a Pokemon-like rabbit (a novel incarnation of Ganesha indicated by the Shiva trident on its nose). In addition, a few sea creatures partly inspired by sea monsters of western antiquity conglomerate along the mid left side of the composition. The Sphinx itself is an amalgam of aquatic, fetishist, ancient Egyptian, and 80’s style adornments, both living, as in a clown fish, or material, such as a cassette tape. Nautically colored antennae receive somatic signals from the atmosphere, perhaps from the 8 Ball moon or giant ringed planet beyond.
