Ethereum Merge is a hotly anticipated and long-awaited upgrade.

The Merge represents the Ethereum network’s shift to proof-of-stake (PoS), its new system (also called a “consensus mechanism”) for authenticating crypto transactions. The reason the change from PoW to PoS is called “the Merge” is because the already running beacon chain will merge with the existing Ethereum mainnet chain.

On the other hand- The fork, commonly referred to as ETHPoW, will share the same transaction history as the main Ethereum network but start creating its own blocks. What does this mean to the market? Are we looking at more volatility?

Anndy Lian, book author of NFT: From Zero to Hero shares about his book on XRdoge TV.

Anndy’s book was sold out on 15 August 2022 on Bybit NFT Marketplace. 8000+ copies were sold so far. The book talks about his views on NFT, Web 3.0 and beyond.

The book’s foreword is written by Ben Zhou, CEO and Co Founder of Bybit and also Jay Hao, CEO of OKX. Many other crypto experts have also penned down their words in the book too.

He wants to share the book with people who are both curious about the world and has read many news articles about NFTs. However, I guess these articles were not able to answer all your questions, and you want to know how best to start your NFT journey.

– Why would someone be willing to pay millions of dollars for a PFP (profile picture)? What’s the value behind it?

– Many actors and singers have also released their own NFTs. However, the price quickly dropped by half after their launch. What’s going on?

– Nike, Adidas, Gucci, Hermès— it seems that big companies globally are entering the NFT market but how do we differentiate those seriously deploying from those just trying to take a cut from the hype?

– According to statistics, in the first quarter of 2022, the transaction volume of NFTs reached $26 billion, exceeding the whole of 2021. However, another set of data tells you that the NFT market is down by 92%. Who should we trust? Is NFT the future, or is it just a bubble?

We can see that the NFT market is on fire, but it also comes with a lot of chaos. This is the task I want to accomplish in this book: I will help you to discover the essence of NFTs below the surface of hype and chaos, as well as teach you how to master NFT step by step.

Start from Zero to become an NFT Hero with my book. Let’s dive into the NFT world together!

The book “NFT: From Zero to Hero” is available on Bybit, Amazon Books and Google Books at the current point.

Ethereum Merge’s impact on NFTs- Coming back? Maybe? Or maybe not?

Ethereum Merge’s impact on NFTs- Coming back? Maybe? Or maybe not?

The number of unique NFT buyers falls below 500,000. It seems like #EthereumMerge is the savior.

Ethereum merge and transition from proof-of-work to proof-of-stake (PoS) will further deliver changes to the NFT market. The Ethereum merge is expected to increase the diversification of Ethereum and revamp the tokenomics of the entire market. We could also see a short-term increase in NFT’s pricing.

Anndy Lian commented on his previous post on Anndy.com: The core message that I was trying to say is that the NFT market is at the rebuilding stage right now. The previous highs that were in the bull market are in a challenging stage. The prices were unsustainable, and it will continue this way as the macro environment is not looking too optimistic now.

There are many contributing factors to this current state but is this the end of the NFT markets? It is not.

Right now there are more projects in the markets working hard behind the scene working on content, books, music, and better gaming assets and experiences. The speculation market has died down, and this is actually very healthy for all of us to grow.

This is a time to go back to basics. We can look at the 5Ps of marketing- Product, Price, Promotion, Place, and People.

When we are in the bull market, whatever products can sell without doing anything. But in the current times, we need to look at the product. Is it value for money?

Pricing is another factor to look at. PFP in the good times can start at a 1 ETH floor price. We should watch our pricing more carefully right now. Take my NFT book, for example, I choose to launch it on Bybit NFT Marketplace at $2.99, not $29.99. This decision was made after looking at the market and the demand from my communities.

Lastly, I think people and community are what we should be building too. If you do not have this, this is the best time to look into it now. This will also help you to get better results when the market turns better.
