Time for another weekly round up of all things HUG. We also have lots coming your way, so make sure you read to the end!

ICYMI... Highlights from our HUG family

• First up, sending a HUGE hug and congratulations to Sacred Skulls founder Kayla on the birth of her baby daughter 🥰 How beautiful is this stunning tribute with traits from the upcoming Sacred Souls collection?

• Boss Beauties is welcoming a new cohort to their BB Future CEO Program, mentoring 38 young women from around the world and we couldn't be more proud to support them. This is what BB is all about. 💪

• The Curious Addys continue to lead the way in making Web3 safer for us all by making sure that their new allowlist tool Heymint no longer requires us to connect our wallets!

• 8SIAN launched their first animated 3D 8SIAN at Metajam in Singapore this week and she's a little sassy.

• Glam Beckett from Sad Girls Bar was featured in the major UK publication The Observer this week, representing UnicornDAO. Congratulations!

• Stardust Generation launched their new holder rewards program, Stardust Space Cadets, and we can't wait for the airdrop of our cute pins and patches.

• hedgeHUG project xCollective launched their new website and it is beautiful! 😍 Does this mean mint is getting closer? 👀

HUG updates

If there is one thing you have to read this weekend, it's our founder Debbie's thread on what we have been up to since we got started in February.

Other things you may have missed:

• The beta to the HUG, our community review and discovery platform for NFTs, is now open to even more Huggers! Make sure you check Discord for all the instructions.

• We added two new tools - a Q&A bot from Curious Addys that allows you to ask all of your Web3-related questions from within our Discord and get an answer within 24 hours, and a daily summary email from our friends at Token Gated.

• Eislyn's incredible HUG Inclusiverse piece sold out this week! 10% of proceeds will be donated to Interact Center, as nominated by our Bear Hugging Brigade.
