Tip 1: Avoid Roadmaps

While it may sound incredible, it is the truth. Projects with a roadmap are 8.5% less likely to sell out, and after 7 days, they are 9.8% higher than the Mint price… but after 28 days, they are 5% lower than the Mint price. Why? Too many projects overpromise and fail.

Tip 2: Avoid Derivatives (Except Apes)

Cypherpunk derivatives were 3.7% less likely to sell out, and after 28 days, they were 65.8% less expensive than Mint. The one exception is the Boring Ape derivatives, which are 5.3% more likely to be minted, and after 28 days, they are up 1,256% from the Mint price.

Tip 3: Avoid 3D Art

While 3DNFTs are 2.2% more likely to be minted than regular NFTs, after a month, their prices have dropped by 23% overall! 3D art grabs attention quickly but can't seem to keep it up.

Tip 4: Grab animation and music projects

While minting animation items was 5.3% less likely than regular NFTs, after 28 days they were 38% more expensive than minting. And with music items, people were 7.7% likely to collect them, and after 28 days, they were 71.5% more expensive than the launch price.

Tip 5: Pay attention to artists on Twitter

Research shows that artist collections are 6.1% more likely to sell out, and after 28 days, these NFTs are up 72.2% from their launch price.
