Upcoming Drops: July 18-24
Let’s face it: The NFT space moves really fast. Considering how quickly things can change in the metaverse, a week in NFTs might as well be a month IRL.
Don’t get us wrong — the more people onboarded into the space, the merrier. But because of the constant influx of great art and ideas, it’s becoming increasingly difficult to keep up with all the news, launches, and general happenings.
Well, you can put the days of endless Twitter and Discord scrolling behind you, as we put together a weekly list of upcoming NFT drops you definitely don’t want to miss. Here’s what to look out for this week.
Nickelodeon NFT Drop
Who: Nickelodeon and Steve Aoki
What: 10,000 packs of Nickelodeon NFTs.
When: July 18 for whitelisted users, July 19 for the public.
Where: Nickelodeon NFT’s official website
Why: In partnership with RECUR, Nickelodeon is finally set to drop its long-awaited NFT collection. The initial public drop is set to consist of one-of-one PFP NFTs featuring characters from two of the most iconic cartoons of the 90s: Rugrats and Hey Arnold! Additionally, Steve Aoki has created remixes of music from the two cartoons, which will be used to launch an upcoming ‘mashup’ program that will allow collectors to combine traits from the characters to create new unique collectibles.

(@niftygateway) July 18, 2022
Who: CryptoCubes in collaboration with 15 crypto artists including Ben Mauro, Macro Mori, and more.
What: 15 one-of-one NFTs
When: July 18 @ 6:30 p.m. EDT
Where: Nifty Gateway
Why: CrytoCubes, along with the 15 crypto artists it commissioned to make pieces for this collection, is set to hold a truly limited auction later today at 6:30 P.M. EDT. Each artist combined CryptoCubes’ imagery with their own artistic style to create a one-of-one NFT. The auctions will last just five minutes each.
Universal Feelings
Who: Oscar Llorens
What: Five pieces, ranging from ten to twenty editions each.
When: July 19 @ 6:30 p.m. EDT
Where: Nifty Gateway
Why: With this collection, Spanish illustrator, painter, and artist Oscar Llorens hopes to translate what he’s identified as the “five universal feelings” — hope, distrust, spirituality, energy, and adventure — onto the proverbial canvas. Each piece in the collection carries Llorens’ characteristic playful, chaotic, and surrealist style and is fully animated in its own right.
Unholy
Beyond the Rainbow there are unholy places, haunted by primordial beings who care nothing for our existence. We are nothing more than the flesh and blood that feeds their bodies, while our bones support the pillars of their kingdom.

When: July 22 @ 6:30 p.m. EDT
