Hey everyone,

The first 6 months of 2021 have been a wild ride and we’ve grown extremely quickly while working on exciting new projects for members daily.

In May we sent the first of a series of messages to detail an important evolutionary step we’ve taken. As we work on more innovative projects, we’ve moved beyond our old cadence of monthly drops.

That timeframe didn’t align with our mission to bring our Members a lot more value than they paid, and to bring them access to unique projects that they normally would not know about. It forced us to focus on the Calendar rather than the Value. Sometimes the great opportunities we’re working on can’t be wrapped in a neat bow every 30 days.

That’s why we continue to move to a value-driven drop schedule. What that means for our Members is that you will continue to receive well-researched, expertly-curated NFTs, and have the ability to easily build a valuable NFT portfolio as projects are developed, acquired, and curated.

The Members on an annual plan and those who have been with us for a while probably won’t notice anything besides their portfolio value increasing. New Members might fall in-between a distribution and have questions about drops, schedules, and the value of their Membership (beyond the community).

As we develop projects for distribution, members will enjoy access to our community as well as consideration and access for pre-sales, GYB-exclusive deals, and skip-the-line privileges to unique opportunities. We have been developing a few projects that are going to be revealed soon and preparing for a larger valued drop next time, as we finish the development of multiple projects. We are committed to distributing high-quality and high-value NFTs as we develop and acquire them. We will post-launch dates and make regular announcements so you know what to expect, and we encourage you to contact us with questions.

Our current Members do a fantastic job of communicating our mission and results, often better than we do.

We value your continued support in helping make new Members feel welcomed and educated. This is what makes our community unique, and is very much appreciated by the entire GYB team.

We can be sure GYB will keep operating ahead of the curve!

For instance, it was a year ago that we designed the first NFT bundle! Now there are a dozen companies working on some iteration of the inaugural NFT bundle, The NiftyONEz. We knew we were right with the bundle concept and we feel equally confident that focusing on providing ultimate value and building incredible NFT portfolios for all our Members, whether that is 8 drops or 80 drops, is the right thing to do.

Update for members on July 1st, 2021

Some members did get a drop in June based on their level of membership. We had inventory for assets distributed to those members and legacy members may get a different distribution than members on the newer plans and some legacy plan members will not get as many distributions if they’ve reached the level of value for your membership.

So for example, for a legacy Nifty Annual plan that was $250/year, the expected value was $500. So if you’ve gotten $500 or more in NFT value, then your distributions have been fulfilled. If those members would like to get more distributions, please consider one of the newest plans.

As our first message in May states, we’ve moved beyond our old cadence of monthly drops and now everyone gets assets according to their membership level when we have inventory. It takes time to develop and acquire some of the best NFTs. Sometimes the best investment opportunity is being patient and waiting.

I know we’ve been quiet lately here at GYB but we’re building and developing some amazing projects. We do not want to give members ordinary assets. Our goal is to have 2–3 epic drops a year, unique/high-quality distributions. We are working on some pretty phenomenal NFTs and projects that are surely going to be trailblazing in the NFT space.

Our latest project will be unveiled on 7/3 at CrypTokyo and will be sure to AH-MAZE! I know changing our membership offerings has been confusing to some of you so please feel free to DM any of us on the GYB team to ask more questions. Also, we have our quarterly AMA for everyone in the community that you can submit your questions to!

Stay tuned for BIG announcements coming this quarter!

Sincerely,
The GYB Team
