Dear

@TezosFoundation
,
I know Tezos was created for DeFi but the users have spoken and Tezos is for Art
90%+ of what occurs on the chain of Tezos is NFT Art minting, NFT Art collecting, and NFT art transfers
You need to begin to highlight and support the RIGHT people
I’m 29. My fiancée left me and moved away. I live in a city where I have no friends, I have a job I want to leave for crypto/NFT & no social life..
But at least this heartbreak opened my life up to beginning to write poetry and try to channel my pain into helping others cope 💜
We share a little “Work-in-Progress” of what we building 🤌🏼
Collection is called “Walls”
Initial mint will be 7/7/22
3D object files of actual IRL graffiti walls that I captured “in the wild”
The collection will be minted thru my Manifold contract & listed thru Foundation
I was so inspired by Fewo’s letter last night that I wrote an open letter of Degen Poetry to add to the chorus 🫡
It’s also an open edition NFT if you would like a permanent record of your discontent (details in next tweet)

Hey frens here’s some alpha for you..
When crypto has a 6 Sigma event like it just did - but then you see an amazing artist like

The market is trying to tell you something anon 🤔 are you listening?

Super proud I can finally call myself a “Collector” of your amazing art 🫶🏼✨
@farokh
I love everything you have been doing, I am addicted to your passion and enthusiasm, & I love how genuinely -you- you are instead of putting on an act 🙏🏼
I also love the mindset that you have been approaching everything from - other end of the spectrum as a rug like Tai 🙌🏼
WIP post…
We may only have 1 collector (so far) for my polygrammetry of IRL graffiti walls
We may have issues with the GLB files not properly displaying on FND which caused me to delist
But the mission to preserve Public Art via blockchain persists & we keep building 🫡
