Great story and so true that the Cryptowriter community is unlike any other in the NFT space. We’re all welcomed in, like family. This family vibe laid the the foundations of success for the the DropBears and now they’re part of the story too. Looking forward to seeing where the story takes us.

I told you I couldn't write this article half as well. This was your piece to write from the get go and you killed it.

Drop bears is my favourite project bar none! When i realised the charitable side of it, it made the madness of 2021 worth it. In the UK we see these fires around the world and it just looks like hell. Amazing to see the NFT space affecting change. So much love .

This is exactly why I love this project.

Unfortunately, I was not active when drop bears went on sale and I missed the sale.

I've been in this community for a long time and I trust the managers just because of this I would like to buy.

I liken Dropbears nfts to matic punk, so the pictures are similar. matic punk was highly appreciated. I have no doubt that drop bears will also be greatly appreciated.

I don't have an nft on the ETH network. The reason for this is very simple. Gas fee. Really high fees.

It doesn't make sense if what I'm going to buy isn't too expensive. And if it's expensive, I don't buy it. A dead-end street.

But I like Drop Bears. Who knows, maybe I'll buy one.

One more question stuck in my mind. I think Finney's coming into the Eth network. That could be because of the bridge. But I wonder what it would be like if it came to the solana network, which is already a popular network right now?

I can't predict it in the long term, but it would be super in the short term.

For a moment I thought what was going on. Who's he talking about? Fortunately, I managed to understand.

Cooperation is a good thing. The two communities cover each other's shortcomings and become larger together. Both sides win. I hope this cooperation will be the same. Both communities win.

And the things that are done are beautiful. Work is being done and I don't know how much of the proceeds will be. It's spent on nature. That means we mean well.

It was different to see the first awards. I thought I was old. But I've just seen that I'm so new.

Thanks for the nice post. I think I've learned something else about Australia. I hope I get a chance to go for a ride one day.

I stumbled upon this project on Twitter and was instantly sold on the art. As I researched the project and progressed to the Discord I was hooked. The community there was lively and engaging; the transparency of the team during prelaunch and how a speed bump at drop was navigated convinced me that this team was going to succeed without doubt. Donations to a great cause and a continued focus and direction on the future road map has me exited for things to come. Keep it up Drop Bears team.

I'm a big fan of this project. It was cool to find out a bit more about how they got started.

Working in corporate tech, I had been hearing about this NFT thing. A few weeks of twitter browsing and I then stumbling upon a discord link for Drop Bears, I got myself a discord account. Well! As an Aussie, finding a home grown NFT of mythical animals mirroring many of my own lifestyle choices, how could I ignore? 4 bears later and I'm loving the community. A collective and decentralised way of improving something (koala sanctuary in this case) is such a great way of using the power of the people. When the rest of the world is ready, see you at Willows.

Mate, great to see you've found NFTs! Great news is, imo you're still early - we got sooo much more runway ahead of us. Also, you koala'd in to one of the best projects out there, which was a good mooove

Cheers mate, always learning, I even get the reference... Koala'd in rather than aped, like it 😀. Keeping an eye on Finney's imminent arrival too.

That would be another great first move 😉

Been few months now since I knew about CW, and it was when I joined a rap contest on twitter. From then on, got hooked to it. Cant help but want another finney then another. Now, for the DropBear, im not really a fan of Eth chain due to its gas fees. But... knowing that part of the team is also a great part of the CW team I wanted to hop into it. However, im lacking ETH when the minting time started. Now I can just let this chance pass by! A collab between great projects!! Real utility you see there! You get incredible art and you also see what they really are all about. Cant wait to see the future of both teams!

Thanks Awit. Hopefully you win yourself a DropBear in one of our upcoming competitions!

Fee's a big wound. He's blocking me on a lot of things. All that remains is to watch.

Thats for sure! I heard that even listing a piece hurts.

That should have been *cant just let this chance pass by. Sorry about the hiccup 😅

With so many projects dropping every day, it was a no-brainer for me to support a project that stands for more than just making money and is helping with conservation efforts in my home state of NSW. I think they have very cleverly tapped into a unique pool of buyers with their Dropbear NFTs and when combined with good old Aussie charm it's a winning combination!

I really love drop bears !

Is amazing how Cryptowriter supported this project because is made by community members.

Again, I want to congratulate to the team behind drop bears for their successful drop. I expect the next one to be even better

What a long story!

I truly understand the struggle after my country faced several fires. It's so thrilling and desperate to be in such situation as the nature, then as the nation. So I love what Drop Bears are achieving by donating the earnings to actual bears which they came up with the idea of making these NFTs.

Settlement of the crew already shows why Drop Bears had huge support by the community, things work like this if you have people behind you who supports you without boundaries. I didn't hesitate reading the whole thing and I love the story through roots to its branches.

I'm neither ETH rich nor actual rich, so ETH gas is exceeds my boundaries :D. Otherwise, I would definitely be sure to grab one bear, but maybe soon I'll be wealthy to do.

Thanks for the story.
