Have you heard? NFTs are hot again. The media (both crypto media and mainstream media) declared NFTs dead in June, citing data that showed sales volume had dropped precipitously at the largest NFT sites. But now the market for blockchain-based digital collectibles has come roaring back (along with the price of Ethereum), especially one segment of the NFT boom that probably looks particularly bizarre to skeptical onlookers: cartoon animal collections. Pudgy Penguins hit $11 million in daily sales volume. Bored Apes hit a floor (the cheapest price for one NFT)

This morning Grayscale, the world’s largest provider of cryptocurrency investment vehicles, temporarily turned its attention away from hoovering up the supply of Bitcoin to focus on arguably the most intractable problem in all of crypto: getting your stubborn friends and family on board.  Last Friday Grayscale founder and CEO Barry Silbert teased a massive ad buy on Twitter with the intention to “brrring crypto to the masses” — and this morning he delivered, with spots on CNBC, MSNBC, FOX, and FOX Business, among others.
