The Deets
- The new RSVP window closes Sunday, 5/28, at 11:59 p.m. PT.

❗ Why It Matters
Registration was originally open back in mid-April, with priority given to Azuki and BEANZ holders. But Azuki is opening up more spots due to demand.
Previously, holders had to request to be put on a waitlist, so this is welcome news for those who weren't able to secure tickets last time around.

Art Blocks shared the RSVP form for the third annual Art Blocks Marfa Weekend that takes place September 21–24 in Marfa, Texas, via Twitter.
The Deets
- The Art Blocks Marfa weekend will be hosted in Marfa, TX, at the Art Blocks House, located at 109 W. San Antonio St.
- The festivities will start on Thursday, September 21, in the late afternoon and wrap up on the morning of Sunday, September 24.
- In order to have the most accurate headcount this year, Art Blocks is asking each member of your party to complete the RSVP individually.
❗ Why It Matters
Art Blocks is responsible for some of the most expensive NFT generative art in the space, and it will be n weekend full of art, conversation, and friendship, with the added bonus of the unveiling of a new art exhibition in the gallery taking place as well.
The feedback from NFT NYC was that the IRL aspect was a great change of pace as far as making connections and meeting new people, so this Art Blocks gathering could promise that same type of positive energy and enthusiasm.
🎬 Take Action
Those interested in attending should fill out the RSVP form here and consider booking their accommodations sooner rather than later, as Marfa is a small town and hotels, rental properties, and campgrounds are filling up fast.

More information regarding check-in and the weekend’s schedule will be shared in the Art Blocks Spectrum article as we get closer to the event.
DeGods, in partnership with Ordinal Gallery, is hosting an art event featuring live auctions and special collaborations on May 18.
The Deets
- Hosted at Jonathan Schultz Gallery and will include live auctions, powered by Gamma's Dutch auction tool.
- Attendees can bid on unique digital and physical art pieces.
- A special 1/1 collaboration piece between Jonathan Schultz and Pudgy Penguins will be unveiled and auctioned, with a portion of the proceeds going to charity.
❗️Why It Matters
This is the first Bitcoin Miami in which an NFT presence is actually relevant, given the relatively new rise of Bitcoin Ordinals and NFTs on the Bitcoin blockchain. DeGods is well known as one of the strongest communities in web3, but it will be interesting to see the reception from participants during a week that does not have an NFT specific focus.
🎬 Take Action
Interested participants can apply to join the event here. Attendance is subject to approval by the host.

The DeNYC Treasure Hunt will go live tomorrow at 9 a.m. ET for 48 hours, and there are over $100k in prizes, per an announcement from @DeGodsNFT.
The Deets
- The DeNYC Treasure Hunt is a multi-day scavenger hunt across NYC that is open to the public and powered by @0xPolygonLabs.
- Hundreds of 2 or 3-person teams will compete and the sign-up link is here: nyc.degods.com/treasure-hunt.
- The DeNYC Treasure Hunt Challenges will go live tomorrow at 9 a.m. EST.

Pick up an official bandana at one of the check-in events and make sure the official bandana can be seen, like in this example.
❗ Why It Matters
After DeGods bridged to Ethereum at the beginning of the month, Frank teased "going dark" until NYC. In that same tweet, an outline of an airdrop 🪂 symbol in the bottom right also sent the DeCommunity into a frenzy. This public event is a big part of DeNYC, bookended by smaller, holder-only events.
What further announcements might be in store is unclear. But we'll surely hear from Frank again (many, many times today).
🎬 Take Action
- If you're in the area and interested, assemble a team and sign up using this link: nyc.degods.com/treasure-hunt.
- Challenges will be sent via email to all registered teams. You have 48 hours to complete as many challenges as you can, and the team will update the leaderboard on their site frequently.
- Each team will need to check in to claim their DeNYC Treasure Hunt Bandana. All challenge submissions must show the DeNYC Treasure Hunt Bandana within the picture or video to earn points.
