“I don’t know that much about NFTs,” she said. “But what I do know is that they can be bad for the environment and cost a fortune. Mine won’t.”

said the misician.

Doja Cat’s NFT collection includes 26,000 collectibles, with prices ranging from $5 to $100. The “limited edition” NFTs were designed as different-colored revolving metallic busts of the artist. Some NFTs even include tickets to an upcoming Doja Cat concert.

XTZ daily chart

In hindsight, on Sep. 7, Bitcoin led the altcoin market into a downward spiral and put red candles on mots of the charts. Tezos, however, didn’t drop for long. After the brief setback on Tuesday, the digital asset not only recovered but initiated a new leg up, logging a whopping 64 percent gain amid the ubiquitous correction.

The rally halted on Sep 13, and the price action moved sideways. Should XTZ see a downward correction ahead, it could still retest the $6.53 line as support and move north. On the other hand, if Tezos continues the uptrend, it could meet and surpass the three-year top of $8.41.
