Key drops and content from the Rarible ecosystem

Over on the blog we’re diving into why community is at the heart of any successful web3 project, especially if it’s NFTs. 

In case you haven’t heard, the high vibes and higher mint numbers continue on MegaETH testnet. If you want to experience lightning fast minting and a solid community, RaribleFUN is the place to be.

We’ve got possibly the most adorable PFP collection there is, plus a series of unique 1/1s on Ethereum. Let’s take a look.

TL;DR:

Community is key to NFT success

In a post-hype cycle, one truth remains: strong communities sustain NFT projects long after the mint. As speculation fades, belonging and shared values drive real utility and growth, and keep users and collectors coming back for more. 

A thriving community offers feedback, spreads the word, and builds alongside the project. Holders aren’t just buyers—they’re believers, collaborators, and sometimes even co-creators. The most successful NFT ecosystems – like MegaETH, Scope, or Etherlink – build frameworks that encourage participation, creativity, and ownership.

The After School Club community on Eclipse

After School Club (ASC) is a standout example of how community-first thinking drives success in the NFT space. From daily engagement and AMAs to a sold-out mint party on Discord, the ASC team spent over seven months nurturing genuine relationships with their holders. They built momentum through pure community outreach —no influencer campaigns, no whitelist —just a clear vision, consistent presence, and shared nostalgia. The result? A sold-out 10K collection in under an hour and a community that feels more like a friend group than a fanbase.

"The energy was electric. We’ve been building momentum and trust with our community for over seven months, engaging with them daily through AMAs, gathering their feedback, and truly listening to what they wanted from this collection. It was more than a mint—it was a culmination of months of shared passion and effort"
