New in @sticker_bot: collections are now separated into officially released and community-made categories, making it easier to find what you’re looking for.

VeVe has launched a holders-only chat for owners of the VeVenaut Genesis collectible.

Anyone holding at least 1 VeVenaut Genesis sticker can join the exclusive community chat via Access.

Access is available exclusively to holders and is automatically verified through the Access app.

TON.org has been updated once again.

However, NFT Stickers are still nowhere to be found on the website, unlike other TON assets such as Gifts, Anonymous Numbers, Usernames, and more.

While the TON NFT sticker space has been relatively quiet, new builders are still entering the ecosystem.

One of them is GRAMBO.

GRAMBO is a TON-based launchpad where users can create and trade community-driven tokens — similar to platforms like Pump.fun, but built for TON.

But GRAMBO is also an NFT collection. The NFTs were available to mint for free, and without team buybacks or artificial growth, the floor reached around 3 $GRAM through community support.

In the future, NFT holders will be able to vote for bonded tokens, and the tokens receiving the most support will get treasury backing.

The team also mentioned that if the platform continues to grow during the upcoming TON season, early supporters and NFT holders may receive exclusive rewards and drops.

Interesting to see more projects building real products around TON.

A quick update regarding my post from a while ago.

DAOLama shut down due to internal conflicts within the DAOLama team. I hope nobody lost money because of that post.

Laffka, on the other hand, is still active, operating normally, and has no plans to shut down. (Besides, there’s no team drama to worry about 😁.)

You can still instantly borrow $GRAM using your NFT stickers as collateral and later repay the loan to get your stickers back.

Laffka has consistently offered a higher LTV than the alternatives, allowing users to borrow a larger percentage of their collateral’s value.

They also recently added the ability to sell NFT stickers even while they’re being used as collateral, making it even easier to repay your loan without having to redeem the stickers first.

Telegram has effectively killed the NFT Stickers narrative.

Projects like DOGS and Notcoin managed to bring some of the biggest IPs into NFT Stickers — and into the Telegram ecosystem — without any real support from Telegram itself.

Ironically, this was a vision Telegram originally introduced. Durov proposed the idea, while Notcoin and DOGS actually turned it into reality.

Instead of building on that momentum, Telegram chose to ignore it.

This is not financial advice, but I wouldn't call Telegram Sticker NFTs dead just yet.

Some of the biggest IPs are already involved, and it's hard to imagine major brands that care about their reputation simply abandoning their NFT sticker collections.

For example, Pudgy Penguins' plans for a sticker holder airdrop are still on the table.

With MRKT no longer supporting NFT sticker trading, Laffka is now the most liquid marketplace for NFT stickers.

It already handled 40% of the total NFT sticker trading volume before MRKT’s exit, and now it’s the #1 place to trade.

Plus, you can get instant $GRAM loans backed by your NFT stickers.
