== About PSSSD ==
"THE POSSESSED NFT An innovative new NFT developed by PSSSSD Labs to enhance your creativity." "A contained outbreak of 10,000 animated NFTs."

"We believe that every human born possesses creativity. When we're 3 years old our imagination, curiosity and creativity is at an all time high. As we grow older it is educated out of us. We believe that creativity and passion is an essential ingredient for a fulfilled life, and that's why everything we do will be to help you embrace your creative inner-child."

"Human interaction is another essential ingredient for a fulfilled life. Discovering the people who share your passions and growing with them creates a real sense of meaning. We're building a community that looks after each other and encourages one-another to be the best they can be."

"Great things happen when we work together. A true collaboration is when multiple parties combine to create something greater than the sum of its parts. Challenging each other to experiment in new ways creates unexpected results - and innovation comes from the unexpected."

"Every Possessed NFT will include a fully animated character with 2 static pfps - one of each state (Blessed and Possessed). Holders will be able to select which state to use as their pfp."

"Once you interact with these fake bots they will snag your discord token, giving them instant access to your account without 2FA or your password."

"The mint took place on June 30th 2022."
