    1/ On-chain generative art collections will be amongst the most culturally significant works from this first era of digital art on the blockchain. In our first editorial ever at @curatedxyz, we present a comprehensive primer for on-chain gen art and how to collect it (🔗 below).

    Legit criticism on NFTs: most discord communities are a total shit show. It’s hard for newbies, so much information gets lost, and all the gms are not really true community engagement. We need better tools to build stronger communities. We’re not there yet.

    Dream NFT conference: Invite all the artists, builders, and creators to a massive resort town near a lake or mountain. We spend a week just learning from each other. Unconference style teaching. No shilling platforms or projects. Eat, drink, learn, and touch grass.

    It is absolutely bonkers to me that the most successful artists in this space have to handle marketing, communication, finance, operations — AND make art — pretty much all by themselves or with 1 other person. Not healthy nor sustainable.

    I think 1/1s on @withFND are the most undervalued opportunity in all of NFTs at the moment Change my mind.

    In 1996, Pokémon came out for gameboy. The goal was to collect all 151 creatures, with the catch phrase "Gotta Catch'em All". 25 years later, that generation of brainwashed kids now have disposable income, and well here we are. NFTs.

    I think punks, fidenzas, xcopy, squiggles, deafbeef, and ringers are all boomer nfts that are ngmi. No token, no roadmap, no utility, you can’t even get into a party with them. Let’s all list ours below floor and show em.

    My growing thesis on photography NFTs: For the best photographers, their NFTs are their social tokens. You're buying into their life's journey as artists. That's what makes it special.

    We’ve spent the past 18 months building up the Curated collection into one of the most significant digital art collections in the world. Now, we’ve built the best way to explore the collection.

    PFPs are increasingly becoming zero sum games. There is no real value being built by the average team, so it’s just LT negative expected value. By comparison, 1/1 art and gen art are positive sum games with long term players — not a game of who can get out the fastest.
