FarmerJoe's favorite NFTs right now & why
Everyone's collection is different. Here are my current faves and why.
The NFT market is nuts. It feels like there are 10+ drops every day and it’s getting downright expensive as a hobby. We need to come together as a Village and help sort through the riff raff to find those golden nuggets.
This first letter as your Mayor is going to focus on my current favorites among my collection and why I really love them. You probably know a lot of these and own them too, but there may be a few nuggets in there that you haven’t found yet.
Let’s take a look.
Cool Cats
Cool cats are by far one of the “Coolest” NFT collections on the market. They feature 9,999 randomly generated cartoon cats. The art is cute and fun for the whole family, the collection features a ton of great designs meaning there is something for everyone to fall in love with, and the community is absolutely phenomenal.
On top of that, the story of Clon (the creator of cool cat) is rather remarkable and it is awesome to see his creation take off in such an inspiring way.

Untamed Elephants
Untamed Elephants are one of the newer collections on the block. They are a procedurally generated series of 7,500 Elephants with over 100 different traits. With a lot of great design choices and fun artwork, the Elephants appear to be catching on quickly. Not to mention that the team behind Untamed Elephants has promised to donate to a real charity to help save the elephants from poachers and an upcoming roadmap item for companion NFTs, there is a lot to like here.
With a low entry price in the current market, this is a great place to start your collection if you are new to NFTs.

Super Nfty Floating Heads
You can thank me later for this one! Super Nfty Floating Heads are a series of 264 individually made NFTs of, you guessed it, floating heads. Each one is meticulously designed in VR by Super Nfty and features a completely unique design. These are not randomly or procedurally generated, these are individual art pieces.
Each Floating Head comes with the NFT Gif and unlockables that feature a 3D printable version of your Floating Head as well as AR files so you can do all kinds of crazy things with your new artwork. Not only that but Super Nfty has started doing a series of toys based on BAYC and is really starting to pick up steam.
This series is still ongoing and he releases new Floating Heads every Friday. You don’t want to sleep on this one.

Degen’$ Farm
This one is a little bit weird and probably not for everyone but I’m a little bit weird and came to NFTs from DeFi yield farming so it’s right up my alley. Degen’$ Farm combines 2640 unique pixel animals with 2,000 lands in a quasi-gaming like structure where animals can be bread by burning lands to try and form even rarer animals.
Basic animals have a small percentage chance to give birth to Chads and Chads have a very small chance to give birth to Degens. The catch is that if you don’t get a rare animal, your egg will hatch into $DUNG, a special token that can be farmed in a liquidity pool to buy tools that will help you gain an advantage in your next attempt at breeding.
There is a lot of luck involved and it’s all kind of silly, but if you are the right kind of person, these little pixel animals and the interesting mechanics will pique your interest like it did mine and you might just enjoy a bit of Degen Farming!

WoofBits
Woofbits are a collection of 200 individually built Voxel dogs. Each one is a unique 1/1 design and features a cool looking dog straight out of minecraft or your favorite Voxel game (but way more awesome). Not only do you get the Dog NFT, but you also get VOX and OBJ files along with your purchase, making it great for those who are looking to get into the Metaverse or if you are just looking for NFTs with a little bit more utility.
Honestly, I just love dogs and these guys look really great so I felt like I needed one. Only 115 of the 200 Dogs have been released so far so you still have time to get in early. They also have a fairly low floor so there are a lot of great deals of some really nice looking dogs. Based on how cute these little guys are, I doubt they stay this cheap for long.

Dead Freaks
These NFTs are a little bit more on the wild side but are one of my favorite lines if you are just looking for some really cool art. There 100 Dead Freaks (Vampires), 40 Dead Lycans, and a few special series like Glow Freaks (4), Glow Lycans (3), and even a planned release for Witches with The Coven drop. They also have a planned Gen 2 of Dead Freaks so there will be a lot more on the way and I am really excited to see these keep evolving.
The Dead Freaks community, or Fang Gang as they like to call themselves, are absolutely badass and a really great group to join. The creators of Dead Freaks are very active in chat and are still working on bringing additional utility and fun to their community and even have Pictionary nights in Discord.
If you are looking for something a little more outside the box and with a darker tinge to it, these are some of the best NFTs out there and I am definitely proud to have them carving out a section of my collection.
Current Floor: 0.69 ETH
So that does it folks. Those are some of my current favorites in my collection and I would definitely recommend each and every one of them to new collectors. If I had to pick my personal favorites, I would say Cool Cats for the community and PFP, but Dead Freaks if you just want some totally badass art.
Which ones are your favorites?
Until next time, keep farming those drops!
