2023 is finally here, and although the previous years provided some challenges for the NFT space, there are numerous potential projects to keep on your radar.
While it's tempting to focus on what's already popular, there are plenty of new NFTs that perhaps haven’t been the talk of the town but have a special something to make them unique - many of them offer innovative ways to connect with artwork or provide new exciting game experiences.
In this post, we'll take a look at some of the most promising projects to keep an eye out for in 2023, which are sure to give everyone a taste of what the future might have in store for the NFT industry as a whole.
Projects To Discover In 2023
Whether you're an experienced collector looking for something fresh or you're simply curious about what are NFTs, there's no better time than now to explore some promising NFTs projects.
Here are 6 projects to follow closely during 2023.
Bonk
Bonk Inu (BONK) is a new meme coin growing on the SOL NFT ecosystem that launched in the end of last year and has shown really promising results already.
The developers behind the project burnt over 5 trillion tokens that make up about 5% of the total supply that was initially meant to be for the developers themselves. As the Bonk calls itself to be a project for the people, by the people, they successfully showed their intentions of really being so and actively avoiding insider token sales.
Moreover, as 50%b of the $BONK supply was airdropped to the Solana community - everyone from Solana NFT holders, DeFI members, art collectors, and developers got a piece of the pie.
This is particularly important as this just might be the necessary nudge to make Solans start growing again in 2023.
Botto
NFT projects have a long history of engaging the community, but Botto, who saw the light of day in 2021, takes it one step further by integrating AI and community ideas.
Each week 350 new artworks are presented to the community, from which they can select their favorite by voting. The most popular piece is minted as a final artwork on Ethereum and sold at auction on the SuperRare marketplace.
The new round for the artwork starts each Tuesday, and to get a membership to get into the DAO and have a say on what new piece to consider as an official artwork, a $BOTTO token is required.
Blankos Block Party
Blankos Block Party (BBP) is an earn-to-play, open-world, multiplayer NFT game developed by Mythical Games who are known for attracting notable investors. The game has similarities to Roblox and Minecraft, and the players can design their own game environment but also enjoy other types of gameplay like shooting, racing, platforming, trials, and more.

In order for the NFT industry to grow, it’s important to educate people about the different aspects of crypto and NFTs.

The first generation of their NFTs consists of 2514 manually created tokens that each hold unique properties, elements, classes, and utilities.
The holders of NSUJPG tokens are exclusive members of the community who have access to special benefits, such as the possibility to acquire rare tokens and have access to an annual online event with known speakers from the industry.
The first such event was held in May 2022, and the plan for this year is to continue with the various beneficial events and help the community to gain valuable insights about new innovations.

It’s safe to say that the way projects from different industries like games, sports, e-commerce, and digital art have started to explore the possibilities of NFTs and engage the community, we have much to look forward to.
