The non-fungible token (NFT) revival seems to be well on its way for now. And today is quite a Yuga Labs day.

Last November, Yuga Labs announced a collaboration with Magic Eden to launch the Magic Eden Ethereum Marketplace by the end of the year. The team, however, said that the timeline was too “aggressive.” They haven’t provided more detail yet.

Meanwhile, Yuga Labs’ Bored Ape Yacht Club released a new Otherside trailer, following criticism from the community regarding the quality of the original one – revealed just two days earlier.

CryptoPunks, meanwhile, has launched a new hub as the “living source” for the project.

At the same time, major NFT projects under the Yuga Labs umbrella are the best and among the best performers today per sales volume.

Let’s check all this out in more detail.

Yuga Labs NFT News: ‘Apes Come Home Remastered’

On January 9, the creators of the popular NFT collection Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC), Yuga Labs, released a trailer for the third playtest of their much-anticipated metaverse project Otherside.

The 20-second trailer has been met with mixed reactions, to say the least. Most, however, expressed their disappointment over the video’s quality.

Some jokingly made suggestions:

Then, on January 11, the team re-released the trailer, calling it a remastered version. It jokingly said that it was celebrating the second-day anniversary.

It included an additional comment from the team:

“APES_COME_HOME_REMASTER_60FPS_GORDON_SAYS_WE_FUCKED_UP_OUR_BAD_FINAL_FINAL”

The reactions have again been mixed but seem much more favorable. Besides the clear improvements to the video, many appreciated the team’s comment as well.

On the other hand, some argue that increasing resolution has improved the video but hasn’t made it as good as it could’ve been.

Meanwhile, a year ago, Yuga Labs/ BAYC co-founder Wylie Aronow (Gordon Goner) announced his departure from the project as a core team member to focus on his health.

CryptoPunks Brand Hub Unveiled

One of the most popular NFT projects unveiled its brand hub. The CryptoPunks team described it as “an archive and living source for project info and initiatives.”

Per the website,

“Part iconic NFT collection, part living art and technology experiment. What began as 10,000 pixel punks born on the blockchain in 2017 is now an evolving collaboration with a community of creatives, builders, and technologists. With an archival program that preserves the collection’s significance in digital art history and pioneering initiatives and unique partnerships that build on its legacy, the punk spirit remains at the heart of CryptoPunks.”

It was created with the US-based strategy, design, and technology agency Alright Studio.

“new work in collaboration with our friends cryptopunksnfts — a living, breathing, and ever-evolving archival hub,” the agency commented. “more soon!”

The hub currently has the ‘about’, ‘legacy’, ‘index’, and ‘marketplace’ pages already up. The ‘cart’ and ‘goods’ sections are coming soon, it says.

Larva Labs created CryptoPunks in 2017. In 2022, Yuga Labs announced that it acquired the intellectual property rights to Larva Labs’ CryptoPunks and Meebits collections.

Overall, it’s been a good day for Yuga Labs.
