1️⃣ MarbleCards x Roll. We’re thrilled to announce that we’ve partnered with the digital collectible cards platform MarbleCards! As a result of our partnership, you can now create a unique digital card with any link on our website. On top of that, there will be Roll themed arenas with some of our creators going forward. The first one is with Skeenee, and the theme is, of course, “Skulls.”
2️⃣ Ubisoft NFTs. French video game company Ubisoft Entertainment SA, the name behind game franchises like Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry, Prince of Persia, and many more, announced that they’d be bringing NFTs to Ghost Recon: Breakpoint. The beta will start on December 9th with three free cosmetic drops. You can learn more here.
3️⃣ Fractionalized Banksy. “Love Is In The Air,” the iconic Banksy piece of a man throwing a bouquet of flowers, will be fractionalized into 10,000 NFTs by Particle Collection and will be sold to the public. You can learn more here.
New Money
$FIRST Liquidity Mining. $FIRST now has a liquidity mining program powered by Forefront. The program will run for 90 days, and liquidity providers will be able to stake, accumulate, unstake and claim their rewards at will, without any lockup. There’s a 100,000 $FIRST allocation for liquidity mining rewards. You can read more about the $FIRST liquidity mining program here.
It pays to be $FAMILY. Being a member of the $FAMILY Discord is like being a part of a big family. On top of that, it’s also a rewarding experience. In November, the ten most active members of the community were rewarded with over 2,500 $FAMILY.
$RCDY Grade. Virtual publishing house RareCandy3D just dropped their D Grade NFT investment slots, which are part of their (and the world’s first) NFT Coin Offering (NCO). You can learn more in their NCO Light paper.

Humans of Social Money: Robert Gallardo of GREY
“I started $GREY after a musician friend of mine, Mother Mary, connected me with Bradley [Roll’s CEO]. I thought I could contribute to the future of web3 and the creator economy and I decided to create a token for creatives, designers, and thinkers. The goal of $GREY is to capture the value of my community of supporters and give the culture some ownership over itself.
We recently transitioned our community into a DAO, a decentralized design house that will be focused on creating digital and physical products. We actually just voted on our first design proposal, and the community decided we should make something physical for our first product. You’ll soon be able to get discounts and free stuff from your favorite streetwear brands just for holding $GREY.
In the future, you can expect really thoughtful and well-designed products from us. We’re always looking for new members to contribute to the design process. You can find GREY DAO on Twitter, ask for an airdrop, and then you can then use that $GREY to gain access to Grey Area, our Discord.” — Robert Gallardo, founder of $GREY DAO.
