FAN OF CRYPTOPUNKS? YOU CAN HAVE THIS NFT PENDANT NOW
Ever seen Breakfast at Tiffany’s? Classic, right?
But today it’s not about the idyllic movie. It’s about Tiffany’s & Co - probably the best-known luxury jewelry brand in the world, and its collaboration with CryptoPunks - one of the most popular and biggest NFTs collections out there.
It is important to note, that Tiffany’s & Co belongs to LVMH - the world’s leading luxury products group (under LVMH you can find brands like Château d'Yquem, Christian Dior, Fenty Beauty, Hublot, etc.). So, if this Tiffany & Co and CryptoPunks collab will be successful, it might lead to endless possibilities for further luxurious brands and NFTs collaborations.
What is this collab about?
Tiffany’s & Co announced quite an unexpected news - the company is going to turn CryptoPunks NFTs into pendant jewelry. Like, literally, you’ll be able to wear your digital CryptoPunk NFT on your neck. Is it cool? Well, you tell me.
Sales will begin on the 5th of August, Friday.
If you’re wondering whether these pendants will cost a nice amount of money… Well, it’ll be 30 ETH for one piece. In dollars that would be more than $50k. So… yes, it will cost a bit.
Every pendant will be handcrafted and customized. Buyers can choose from 87 attributes and 159 colors to create their NFT pendant. It will be a pendant made of 18-Karat yellow or rose gold.
If diamonds are your cup of tea - those shiny stones might be also incrusted into CryptoPunk.
I mean… check this out:
So… if you already own a CryptoPunk and you imagine yourself wearing it with a gown (or another fancy clothing) - well, then you have a great chance to do it!
PHISHING ATTACKS DO NOT STOP
In a previous newsletter, I wrote about Celsius and its phishing emails caused by a human error.
This time, phishing attacks target one of the most popular crypto wallets - MetaMask. So, again, I warn you to be careful and stay alert.
So, what happened?
Halborn, a cybersecurity firm, announced an active phishing attack that uses emails to reach MetaMask users. Emails’ goal was to trick and get customers’ passphrases to access their wallets.
Halborn assured customers that those emails look just the same as the real MetaMask messages (header, logo, format, etc.). However, there were some things that alert about emails being different.
Phishing emails had a fake domain called “metamask.auction”, they also had some grammar mistakes, email sender had a fake email address. On top of that, there was no personalization in the letter, which is also a red flag. That’s why you have to read every email carefully, even if at first glance it looks legit.
MUSE IS ABOUT TO RELEASE A NEW ALBUM. JUST IN A DIFFERENT WAY
I’m sure you know Muse - the legendary British rock band.
It seems like this iconic band is innovative and like crypto-related stuff. Why? Two years ago, Muse worked with Dapper Lab’s CryptoKitties project and created these collectibles.
Now, Muse is going to release their 9th album called “Will of the People”, but not in the usual way. It will be released as NFT on the Polygon blockchain. Or, to be more precise, on a Polygon-based platform called Serenade.
Serenade is the “eco-friendly” platform that helps artists to share their music as NFTs. And, it’s also a convenient platform for music fans, because they can purchase their favorite music without creating a crypto wallet - it’s possible to do using a debit or credit card.
Back to the album. “Will of the People” will be not only as NFT on the Polygon - but it will also be a limited-edition album of 1000 copies globally. It will also contain the digital signatures of the band members. And if you’re a fan of this band - isn’t this an amazing chance to buy such a unique package?
The cherry on top: this Muse album is going to become the first NFT album that hit the charts - both in UK and Australia!
So… I guess music NFTFs continue to find their way into the huge and traditional music industry. Just like I talked about in the Crypto Owl’s channel video!

Trust me, this is just a little part of why Vita Inu is a great meme coin. If you want to find more information about this project, you can find it here, and here.
Oh, and by the way - you can compare Vita Inu to super well-known meme coins Shiba Inu and Dogecoin.
