The CW Labs* team has created a series of articles to comprehensively understand the NFT ecosystem and various methods for earning income within it.
In this article, we have created the ultimate guide to valuable services and tools to aid in professional analytics and gem hunting within the NFT market. Also, We have a complete and well-organized database on the cryptocurrency market that can be found on our Notion*.
Basic Knowledge
For beginners, we offer a sincere piece of advice: start by reading the book "How to NFT" by CoinGecko*. This resource can provide a solid foundation and understanding of the NFT market.
If you feel that "How to NFT" does not provide enough information, we recommend reading "The NFT Bible" article by OpenSea*. This helpful resource can further expand your knowledge of the NFT market.
Spreadsheets
Be sure to add Aurelius' Excel spreadsheet "Projectlist ETH"* to your bookmarks, as it contains a list of alpha projects in the NFT sphere with links to social networks, project information, and the date of minting. It also features a column called "Hype Meter," which can help gauge a project's potential.
Another useful resource is the "NFT Lending Protocols"* table from CW Labs. While the social metrics in the table may no longer be relevant, the listed projects are still worth exploring.
The issue of lending protocols for borrowing ETH against NFTs remains unresolved in the crypto world. Our team believes it is crucial to closely monitor new and existing protocols, as this could be the next trend in the NFT ecosystem.
NFT Utilities
Are you interested in understanding the NFT market and making money from it? Then you'll want to have the following tools in your arsenal. While this information may be more useful for experienced users, you can always bookmark this article and return to it once you've learned the basics of the NFT field.
Regarding utilities, we'll be describing the most helpful NFT services and briefly explaining their functionalities. The services will be listed in descending order from most useful to least useful.
Let’s start with the Tier-1 services that you should have in your arsenal:
– Premint — a lottery-based whitelisting platform built using the Web3 concept. Premint is widely used by the world’s leading NFT artists, communities, brands, and celebrities for the best NFT projects. We’ll dedicate a separate article to this platform and tell about it as much in detail as possible, both on behalf of collectors and NFT project creators. You can buy a Pass at Opensea — Premint Collector Pass. – Premint Twitter Bot — a handy Twitter aggregator bot for finding actual raffles on ETH platforms like Premint, HeyMint, and SuperFul. Finding promising projects for people who don’t have a Premint Collector Pass saves a lot of time and effort — definitely GEM. – Magic Eden Drops — fairly fresh page on Magic Eden. The idea is close to Premint. Raffle aggregation primarily on Solana, but recently added raffles on Ethereum. – SudoSwap — to describe the service in simple words, it is a decentralized marketplace for NFT, using liquidity pools. – DegenMint — a super dashboard with real-time NFT mints. UX/UI is great. Nice to use the app. The most useful feature of the service — you can see which Blue Chip NFT holders are minting this or that collection. – NFTNerds — dashboard with various nice features. Strongly loved by members of the NFT community. – Icy Tools — analytics service for real NFT degens. – Context — allows you to follow the purchases and sales of NFT by large and influential market participants. There is a tab for the most expensive purchases/sales, and it also allows you to follow the wallets of FWB Members, CryptoPunk Holders, and PartyBid members. Usability is 10/10. – Moby — analytics service, similar to Icy Tools. – Parsec — an ultimate toolkit for professional analytics. – TraitSniper — NFT trading platform with 2M+ active users. A super handy browser extension helps track the rarity of individual NFTs in a collection based on the rarity of attributes. – Inspect — an analytics platform that has a lot of functionality. For example, it analyzes the social activity of the community of a particular collection. Allows you to analyze the PFP ranking of avatars on Twitter. There is a browser extension with the ability to identify Twitter avatars. – Flips Watch — NFT flips analytics helps you understand how much you’ve gained/lost in JPEG trading. The best tool for degens. – SuperFul — a fast-growing raffle site, an improved analogue of Premint, but not as popular yet. I suggest you keep a close eye on it. You can buy their NFT Pass on Opensea — Superuser Genesis Pass. – NFTGO — an analytics service. Primarily useful with whale wallet analytics. Flips Finance — a trading platform for NFT. – BreadCrumbs — an imba tool for finding wallet transaction links. We often use it to find wallet bundles of bots that use Free Mints and follow them and mint jpegs with the script.
