为什么 Cool Sloths 要让 Aptos 生态系统的一半转向 PFP？

原文作者：Alex Liu，远见新闻

If there is still some controversy as to whether the entire crypto market has entered a bear market, the NFT track is undoubtedly in the middle of a bear market now – the floor prices of many projects are only a fraction of the 21-year highs, and the plummeting price trend chart shows no signs of reversal for the time being.

But bear markets can also hide opportunities: Mad Lads, the top 1 NFT project in the Solana ecosystem, was launched in the bear market (minted at 6.9 SOL on April 20, 2023, when the SOL price was about 22 USDT), and achieved more than 100 times the profit after the market improved.

So a project like this emerged: Cool Sloths on Aptos.

Why Aptos?

Sui is actually the most popular public chain recently, but Aptos, as the other party of Move Gemini, is also unwilling to be lonely and has begun to take action. The introduction of native USDT has once again turned around everyones attention and growth expectations. At the same time, many leading projects in the Aptos ecosystem have not yet issued tokens.

Why Cool Sloths?

Ecological support

Cool Sloths has received support and support from the Aptos ecosystem – this is why I first noticed the project. From Aptos co-founder and CTO Avery Ching to project members and community managers of the Aptos ecosystem, they all changed their avatars (PFP) to Cool Sloths more than a month ago, even before they started minting – they received a 1:1 customized avatar from the project.

Project Background

The team behind Cool Sloths is also the project owner of CRED and TowneSquare. CRED is an application for on-chain social graphs and reputation points systems. In addition to Aptos, it has recently expanded to Monad and has launched the Movement testnet. TowneSquare is a decentralized mobile social app. In addition to demonstrating the mobile development capabilities behind the team, the project owner said that it will empower Cool Sloths around this mobile app.

Cool Solths will be highly integrated with TowneSquare

At the same time, the team also received support from Bixin Ventures, monkDAO and others.

In addition, the project team clearly stated that Cool Sloths is the official NFT series of TowneSquare and CRED. Holders will enjoy the benefits, drops, content and opportunities of major ecosystem milestones.
