Chaos dominated the mood for 2022, but the Potatoz NFT collection defied possibility by quietly gaining momentum in the background. But now, Potatoz is seeing sales skyrocket before the arrival of 9Gag’s second NFT drop, “The Captainz.” Memeland project.
How Potatoz climbed to the top
Potatoz is famous for being a utility-ready project that displays pixelated potatoes in various themes and settings. Keeping the NFT from your collection gave you the chance to forge a Captainz NFT.
The Captainz Mint on January 4th represents an exciting new chapter for the Memeland project. Basically, a Memelist, Potatoz, or Waitlist member can buy a Captainz NFT at the price of 1.069 ETH for a limited time of 48 hours. These assets offer specific perks, including access to exclusive events. This may have contributed to the high demand, especially given the recent success of Potatoz.
Captainz received over 9,999 deposits in 669 seconds.
Therefore, we have stopped the Waitlist mint. Rest assured, whether you attended the Mint or not, you will receive the treasure map in your wallet within a few days.

The year is still early, but it could bode well for Potatoz and the industry as a whole. For Potatoz, it could mean a recovery from an initial lukewarm market response and a chance to find a new audience. For the industry, it could represent the melting of the cryptocurrency winter ice.
