But this episode isn't just about painting a rosy picture or being mere fanboys. We venture into a nuanced dive, addressing the recent turmoil within Azuki and Chiru Labs' communities surrounding the contentious $40 million Elementals mint, which some critics label as a mere "cash grab".

Furthermore, we spotlight the myriad derivatives and customizations that enhance Azuki's unique charm.
Treading the intricate financial pathways of NFTs might seem daunting, but we're here to demystify the maze.

In conclusion, we accentuate the profound influence of art in the NFT domain, presenting Azuki as our captivating exemplar.
