I'll be back with the results after this is all over. We have a lot to learn and will make a ton of mistakes; we are approaching this with humility. Wish us luck ♥️ 920 views · 113 likes · 0 reposts · 27 replies Open on X →

Those numbers might sound small, but a 5-10% success rate would be a victory at an event of this size And if it works as I hope, I'll roll out the idea to some larger events in the future https://t.co/YCxhzdq9gn

Some final thoughts: 1) @musicalnetta was absolutely instrumental in making this happen. She has taste and ideas I simply do not have and both were indispensible. 2) @TransientLabs have been about as easy and competent to work with as anyone around here. They are simply the best 833 views · 122 likes · 0 reposts · 5 replies Open on X →

My hunch is that by stressing simplicity and education we can take away the stigma we have around dealing with cryptoart. Note: I'm wrong a lot🤣 748 views · 107 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

So what are my goals? 1) Give away as many cards as possible. I've created 5k and if I can get ~2k into unique hands I'll be happy 2) Of those 2k or so, I'm hoping ~500 actually claim the work 3) Of that, I hope ~100 or so of those wallets remain active after 1 year 745 views · 112 likes · 0 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →

Once the piece is airdropped, the claimee will then land on a customized page where they can: 1) further explore their piece (bio, description, etc) 2) Watch 2 short videos we created that explain: - what just happened? - what's next? 3) explore trusted digital art sites https://

The point of this exercise is to support digital art. And in order to do that, I feel you need to do 2 things: 1) Show newbies what we're doing here by giving them a free piece of art 2) Inspire them to come back My hunch is that if we meet an art curious person where they are 1.5K views · 164 likes · 4 reposts · 5 replies Open on X →

While much of the world are shunning AI art, we decided to go the other direction. If you use AI in your work, this one's for you! (If you don't, don't worry we'll have a bunch more of these over the rest of the year) 5.5K views · 202 likes · 27 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

Adam did a great job on this piece by @toadswiback and I hope you enjoy it! Fun fact: it's one of my favorite @6529Collections meme cards from Season 5. It was also part of a bet between @krybharat and @phon_ro where I ended up crushing both of them won it 🤣🤣🍻🍻 4.2K views · 114 likes · 9 reposts · 10 replies Open on X →

We have a lot of issues in cryptoart but provenance isn't one of them. Paul was around LONG before the singularity and he has blockchain to prove it But it's not going to be easy for new artists. Feels like we are moving into a "guilty until proven otherwise" phase. Disturbing 14.5K views · 301 likes · 13 reposts · 65 replies Open on X →

@batsoupyum @musicalnetta @batsoupyum we would like to support this program. - all FND proceeds to be reinvested in art - all artwork submitted to be featured on the home page - Collectors joining this movement to receive a 50" Blackdove Digital Canvas after the first purchase 34.1K views · 655 likes · 49 reposts · 103 replies Open on X →

No more sitting around. The program starts new. Follow @musicalnetta who will be running the monthly callout for art. Happy to answer any questions. 10.4K views · 730 likes · 11 reposts · 95 replies Open on X →

Finally, this will be an ongoing program I think. Lanett and I have a few ideas on how to dip our toes into more patronage in 2027, so stay tuned for that one Also, I should have another fun announcement coming in the next few weeks based around education. 9.6K views · 669 likes · 3 reposts · 14 replies Open on X →

I now have even more appreciation for all their efforts. Much respect to you 3. 17.2K views · 705 likes · 5 reposts · 11 replies Open on X →

- A lot of you mentioned expanding in socials beyond Twitter so I have an Instagram account in my profile and I'm going to spend time there trying to build it out. I'll post about our purchases there too. Let's see if we can onboard a few folks over there this way. 9.7K views · 663 likes · 3 reposts · 10 replies Open on X →

- This is not a contest. As I have already stated, I have no idea wtf I'm doing and the reality is that $100k simply isn't enough. Most artists won't be a part of this. It sucks I know. But also understand that taste is subjective and maybe my taste is terrible so don't take a 10.6K views · 725 likes · 4 reposts · 11 replies Open on X →

- I have no idea wtf I'm doing. I am not a curator, nor an art critic. I have no formal art training or art history background.
