Here are some of my strong opinions (loosely held) about NFTs that most people I know would disagree with:. 1. NFTs will not disrupt/replace the art market. The killer use case for NFTs is digital collectibles, not art. That said, NFTs will grow a segment of artists who do.

A common question I've received over the past 24 hours: How are collectibles different from art?. I know some people collect both and/or don't see the need to separate the categories. But I personally find it helpful to distinguish between the two. I define collectibles as items.

Listening to a podcast with @punk6529, this sentence stood out:. “I don’t believe people can understand anything without doing.”. 1 to that. And good advice for anybody who’s thinking about getting more seriously involved in crypto.

it feels like some of the most desirable art nfts in the future may live on tezos simply because many emerging artists publish their earliest works there. L2's may change this but it hasn't happened yet.

RIP Vera Molnár, who passed away at 99, embodying her own concept of 1% disorder – a life as art, ending just shy of a century. Her journey, marked by the beauty of imperfection, reflects her belief in the profound impact of slight, unexpected variations.

a sign that maybe you minted too much work: you're willing to burn it bc nobody bought it within 7 days
The sales will run for the next 7 days. If individual pieces still remain unsold after 7 days, I will take those pieces off the market, and - as we say in Finnish, "riipaisen kovan kännin" - I'll drink a bottle of wine, stare at them with sorrow and wonder why nobody loves.

building community is an underappreciated superpower of crypto. @brtmoments is doing this for artists all over the world.
For each new city we activate @brtmoments, we publish a new catalog that features interviews with artists and images of their work. This is the welcome letter I wrote for the Buenos Aires edition of the Bright Moments Quarterly:. 🧵

But what's different with an NFT, is that it’s also this verifiable story of every person who's touched it. And #376 will capture the narrative of the moment we’re living in, and how we’re trying to make it better.
