Dear Future Whales,
In today's note, I will highlight a fun use case for NFTs tied to Portals.to's immersive and interactive game experiences, which includes the opportunity to play a metaverse-like version of Squid Game. For readers seeking to enhance their understanding of blockchain and web3, I will also share a highly educational podcast featuring the founder of Cardano. Lastly, I'll provide a brief update on Futureverse Quest 5 with some added project Alpha. Let’s dive in!

🎮 Play Squid Game
Portal's community member and builder, 0xMoney.x, has created a truly immersive playground that allows participants to experience some of the various activities featured on the popular show "Squid Game." This isn't the first time I've highlighted Portals, but this environment stands out as one of the early examples of how builders are leveraging Portals NFTs to create memorable and interactive experiences. I encourage you to give it a try!
If you're feeling lucky, consider trying the glass bridge. Selecting the wrong glass can result in a fall to the floor!
🎧Educational Podcast: Listen to the Web3 Deep Dive
During the challenging bear market we've been navigating, several podcasts unfortunately had to cease production, including some of my personal favorites. Those podcasts that persevered will undoubtedly emerge as the winners in the long run, and one such podcast worth listening to and subscribing to is Rachael Wolfson's "Web3 Deep Dive."
I recommend listening to the episode from December 6th featuring Cardano Founder Charles Hoskinson. This particular episode covers a wide range of topics that will undoubtedly enhance your understanding of the space. Pay close attention to Charles' comments regarding Wyoming's efforts to create a stable coin and the significance of establishing robust governance for projects.
🪙 Claim ROOT Token with Futureverse’s 5th quest + Alpha breakdown
Futureverse Quest 5 is now live, presenting an excellent opportunity for those who have yet to become involved in the ecosystem. You can now try your hand at claiming some ROOT tokens, which are currently available for trading on various decentralized exchanges.
The Futurescore is determined by several factors, including the rarity of the FV assets you own, the duration of your ownership, and your active participation in quests like #5. If you aim to maximize your rewards for quest 5, consider making 25 swaps or trades on one of the approved DEXs listed. Achieving the top tier will grant you the opportunity to earn the highest rewards available.
Additional Futureverse Alpha:
Thingie Portal Art is still on track to receive something special.
Swapping your Party Bear's accessories MAY be a quest - This possibility was hinted at during the 30-Minute Max AMA.
Muhammad Ali's The Next Legends Gym Bags serve a purpose even after being opened - So, don't just discard them!
Minting Karts for the upcoming RAICER’s game will count towards your future score.
There is still no word if the ASTO claim per AIFA character is based on rarity.

Cryptocurrency is a digital representation of value that functions as a medium of exchange, a unit of account, or a store of value, but it does not have legal tender status. Cryptocurrencies are sometimes exchanged for U.S. dollars or other currencies around the world, but they are not generally backed or supported by any government or central bank. Their value is completely derived by market forces of supply and demand, and they are more volatile than traditional currencies. The value of cryptocurrency may be derived from the continued willingness of market participants to exchange fiat currency for cryptocurrency, which may result in the potential for permanent and total loss of value of a particular cryptocurrency should the market for that cryptocurrency disappear. Cryptocurrencies are not covered by either FDIC or SIPC insurance. Legislative and regulatory changes or actions at the state, federal, or international level may adversely affect the use, transfer, exchange, and value of cryptocurrency.
Investing in cryptocurrencies comes with a number of risks, including volatile market price swings or flash crashes, market manipulation, and cybersecurity risks. In addition, cryptocurrency markets and exchanges are not regulated with the same controls or customer protections available in equity, option, futures, or foreign exchange investing. There is no assurance that a person who accepts a cryptocurrency as payment today will continue to do so in the future.
Investors should conduct extensive research into the legitimacy of each individual cryptocurrency, including its platform, before investing. The features, functions, characteristics, operation, use and other properties of the specific cryptocurrency may be complex, technical, or difficult to understand or evaluate. The cryptocurrency may be vulnerable to attacks on the security, integrity or operation, including attacks using computing power sufficient to overwhelm the normal operation of the cryptocurrency’s blockchain or other underlying technology. Some cryptocurrency transactions will be deemed to be made when recorded on a public ledger, which is not necessarily the date or time that a transaction may have been initiated.
· Investors must have the financial ability, sophistication and willingness to bear the risks of an investment and a potential total loss of their entire investment in cryptocurrency.
· An investment in cryptocurrency is not suitable or desirable for all investors.
· Cryptocurrency has limited operating history or performance.
· Fees and expenses associated with a cryptocurrency investment may be substantial.
There may be risks posed by the lack of regulation for cryptocurrencies and any future regulatory developments could affect the viability and expansion of the use of cryptocurrencies. Investors should conduct extensive research before investing in cryptocurrencies.
