Introducing Lucky Trader Updates! A Comprehensive NFT Newsfeed
Staying updated on the NFT industry is difficult to do. The majority of NFT collectors, traders, and bystanders can't scour Discord and Twitter at all times to gather news about their favorite projects.
But we can.
Today, we're excited to announce the launch of Lucky Trader Updates, the building blocks of the new and improved Lucky Trader newsfeed.
Updates are designed to capture all of the most important news from the NFT industry, as it happens, in one comprehensive view.
