Proponents believe Goblintown’s anonymous team is filled with prominent names. Crypto Twitter has worked towards uncovering clues in NFT art and decoding Goblintown’s message, stylized in Goblin speak. 

Following a week and half since its mint, Goblintown has managed to trickle into mainstream consciousness. Kristy Tillman, Netflix Director of Product Design considers Goblintown’s Twitter space,

either an absolute new low or brilliance. The line is very thin here.

Crypto Twitter loves Goblintown NFTs

The Twitter community has explained "Goblintown" as a term that might describe a crypto bear market, and several Goblins in the collection mock NFT culture. There is a direct reference to “Kevin,” the mascot of the Pixelmon NFT collection that went bust. 

@tansanDOTeth, a web3 enthusiast and analyst, investigated the collection and revealed that Goblintown is a great example of a meticulously created “Disney-like” experience. Using their playful brand voice, creators of Goblintown are deepening the engagement with the community through "solve-the-mystery" visuals and keeping fans engaged. 

Goblintown collection features “mistryuss eggie,” 5 eggs that see artwork change as the story of the NFTs unravels. This is a visual riddle that has sparked intense discussion about the fate of five NFTs. 

Billy Markus, co-founder of Dogecoin commented on Goblintown NFT collection. Markus tweeted:

Markus revealed that he holds a Goblintown NFT and considers excessive focus on the floor or trading price could make the collection lose what makes it special. 

@NickyGee44, founder of @Bridge3_ believes Goblintown NFT collection could hit 15-20 ETH floor price by the end of the week, as more clues regarding the digital collectibles are revealed. 

FXStreet analysts have evaluated the ApeCoin price chart and noted that the NFT token has failed to hold support. ApeCoin price could continue its downward spiral. For more information watch this:
