When it comes to NFT’s and DeFi, Solana is one of the most popular blockchains in the world. It is currently in the Top 10 cryptocurrencies by market cap, and given the growing number of underlying NFT projects, there is no doubt that interest in this sector is growing.
Users desire platforms with low fees and fast transactions, and Solana meets these requirements. As a result, several NFT projects and platforms are integrating into the blockchain, and more Solana-based NFTs are arising.
Below you will find the most ambitious Solana NFT projects to watch in 2022.
Best Solana NFT projects
- 1. Chainers:
Chainers serve as the latest addition to the Solana-based NFT universe but what an addition it is. Unlike most NFT projects, Chainers sets out to put its community at the helm not only of its virtual world, but the way its NFT collections are designed and built. The soon to be released NFT game is centered around user-generated content, limitless character personalisation, and a full-on Web3 degen culture and vibes.
- 2. Thug Birdz:
The Thug Birdz project is based on very exclusive “gangster” birds. It has been sold as one of the top Solana NFTs due to its rarity of only 3333 “OG’s” – as they refer to the arts. These cool-looking birds also have gang roles and rappers among them, such as Jay-Z, Tupac, and Biggie, and this is one of the reasons the project has a bright future and could eventually catch the attention of celebrities.
