Frank DeGods Ditches CEO Role, DeGods NFT Project in New Hands – What Could Go Wrong?

by

So, it finally happened. Rohun Vora, or as he’s better known in the mystical land of Web3, Frank DeGods, has decided to bow out as the CEO of the DeGods NFT project. And no, this is not some elaborate prank, although it does seem like it could be. Frank, or maybe we should call him “the former face of DeGods,” made the announcement through a *very* official statement on X (the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, because that makes perfect sense). And with this farewell, the DeGods saga enters a whole new chapter—presumably with more sarcasm and less, you know, Frank).

New Leadership: The Pastafarian and the Chill One Take Over

In a plot twist that nobody saw coming (except maybe the people who have a crystal ball), Frank handed over the reins to none other than long-time DeGods team members known by their very *mysterious* pseudonyms, 0x_chill and Pastagotsauce. Yes, you read that correctly. The future of DeGods will now be guided by a Chill One and a Pasta. What could possibly go wrong? (Spoiler: probably a lot, but also maybe some really good spaghetti.)

Now, Pasta (who, by the way, has absolutely no relation to a spaghetti-based deity) has big plans. Like, really big. Apparently, the project’s goal isn’t to just build *more* crypto stuff (because, let’s face it, there’s enough of that already). No, no. Their mission is to make DeGods as gigantic as possible, as Pasta put it:

“Our job isn’t to build crypto products. It’s to make DeGods as big as it can possibly be.”

Controversy, Haters, and a Dash of Sarcasm

Now, let’s talk about the *fun* part—controversy. Because who doesn’t love a little drama? Frank’s departure didn’t just come out of nowhere. Oh no. It was preceded by what can only be described as a *fine wine of controversy*, which had been aging for months. Frank admitted that his public persona—aka the internet’s favorite punching bag—might have overshadowed the brilliance of DeGods itself. He even mentioned that “the hate was overdone,” which is probably an understatement when it comes to social media reactions.

But fear not! Frank took the opportunity to clear his name (sort of). In his statement, he made it crystal clear that he’s never, ever participated in anything *illegal* (phew, because that’s the sort of thing you want to clarify, right?). He also addressed the *very serious* rumors about insider trading involving the LIBRA token, which may or may not have involved Argentine President Javier Milei. Frank admitted that he *might* have made some sarcastic remarks about insider knowledge, but honestly, who hasn’t done that over dinner? No investigations are underway, so everything is fine… unless, of course, you’re the sort of person who enjoys getting caught up in an internet conspiracy.

Sales Boom: Who Needs Drama When You Have Sales?

And here’s where the plot really thickens. Despite (or perhaps because of) all this drama, the DeGods collection is absolutely crushing it in the market. According to CryptoSlam (who I imagine are very reliable, like a data-loving oracle), DeGods NFTs on Solana saw a 101% increase in weekly sales. That’s right, the numbers are now approaching a cool $458,000. And over the past 30 days, the Solana collection raked in a whopping $1.1 million.

But wait, there’s more! The Ethereum-based DeGods collection is also doing quite nicely, posting a 156% rise in sales with $104,000 in the last week. On a 30-day basis, they saw a 323% growth, bringing in more than $250,000. So, if you were wondering whether the NFT world is dead, it’s definitely not. At least, not yet. And if you thought Frank’s exit would be the end of DeGods, you’d be… well, not entirely correct.
