## Open Projects
For some inspiration, [I am](https://twitter.com/hodlyassine) actively building [YSN](https://github.com/devey/YSN) in the open which implements and plays around with parts of the *NFTs* and *FTs* standard.
If you can read **Rust**, [Matt Lockyer](https://twitter.com/mattdlockyer) has a complete *NFT market* showcasing all types of protocol features and more complete than my **AssemblyScript** version.
