With so much going on, it’s easy to miss some of the exciting projects going live. So we wanted to highlight a few that are bringing new communities into Web3, developing valuable tools and exploring new applications of blockchain technology. Let’s jump in.</p><h2 id="header-0">Say GM With NatGeo’s Inaugural NFT Collection</h2><p><img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/optimized-uploads/fd9753edf1d041f18ad320f8c1a734fd.png" /></p><p>National Geographic is paying tribute to the vast world of nature while celebrating 135 years by launching their inaugural NFT collection -- <em><a href="https://snowcrash.com/exclusive/natgeo" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">GM: Daybreak Around the World</a></em>. It features works by 16 illustrious photographers from Kris Graves, Cath Simard, Ben Strauss, and more, capturing daybreak along with their personal greetings from all around the world.</p><p>The Collection, which is a Snowcrash exclusive, signifies Nat Geo’s vision to push the boundaries of innovative storytelling, promote access and inclusivity and uplift creators and photography as they have for over a century. The mint has already completed, but you can still get your hands on some of the NFTs available on the <a href="https://snowcrash.com/collection/bb0f099a-6d1f-4a4c-b4af-62238246da31" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">secondary market</a>.</p><h2 id="header-1">K-Pop Meets Fashion NFTs</h2><p><img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/optimized-uploads/7fb4bc6225934881a9c974dc300d5d1c.png" /></p><p>Starting with Gangnam Style’s breakout YouTube hit and the global legion of BTS fans to Academy-winner Parasite and chart-topping Squid Game on Netflix, South Korea is a bona fide culture powerhouse. Now one of the country’s brightest music stars is making a Web3 debut. K-pop girl group <a href="https://twitter.com/aespa_official" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">aespa</a> is teaming up with <a href="https://www.papermag.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Paper Magazine</a> and Web3 fashion marketplace <a href="https://thedematerialised.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">The Dematerialised</a> to launch a digital capsule collection exclusively on the Polygon network.</p><p>The collection will debut across a series of beautiful covers for PAPERmag.com in the coming weeks, and items for the collection can be purchased on The Dematerialized’s website, like unique ae-pets and different must-have fashion accessories.

In the current environment, compliance is no longer a luxury but a survival strategy. But current compliance solutions are highly intermediated, expensive, not composable, and risk user privacy.</p><p><a href="https://stackerdaos.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">StackerDAO Labs</a> makes it easy to create and operate a legally compliant Web3 organization with a set of tools that allow founders, operators, and DAO members to raise funds, govern protocols, take action, and manage assets effectively without legal hurdles.

Rolls off the tongue better than &#34;not your 24-word recovery seed phrase,&#34; but they may as well be the same. With ZenGo, you are still the master of your wallet universe, but it is just simpler to onboard for all users, especially folks new to the space. ZenGo is a self-custodial wallet with no private key or seed phrase vulnerability.</p><p>ZenGo also employs best-in-class security features to prevent phishing scams and wallet-draining all while offering a guaranteed recovery model.
