In the last 45 days I've collected #NFTs from many artists and projects. Let's discuss why for many of them...π
I should have grabbed @sabet sooner than I did. I knew his story of @pixopop and also his original artwork which I loved the instant I saw it. He's been in the space for over 20yrs and has just recently made his way into NFTs. He's just getting started.
I heard @NylaCollection in a Clubhouse room and appreciated her being able to explain the reason and context of her work at such an early age. The "Long-Neckie" collection has a story and purpose.
I've been excited about @eddiegangland and his ability to experiment with his Skulls series. I've reacted from "what is that?!" to "I want that now!". Follow this guy!
We've all seen the @WARHODL cans and his latest was for a fantastic purpose. LHS, "let her speak" is the movement and this piece was put out to combat some toxic culture on Clubhouse.
Censorship is a problem and @adultarts is the solution. Her art is unapologetic and I am glad to support her mission in a culture that claims to be open but doesn't behave as such.
Who knew overclocking and burned glitched images were art?! Not me, not until I saw @gaperartnft. He's a grinder and continue to push the limits of hardware driven artistic expression.
If you've been to France you've probably seen some of @Eltono work without knowing it! He's been an artist for over 20yrs and has recently entered the #NFT space with his Stylus, 12 Points and Sidereal generative collections.
My first photo #NFTs were from @justinaversano. The Twins Collection is powerful and have a great story to share with each featured twin. He's also been an immense positive force in the NFT world with @saveartspace
Another #Hashmasks, enough said. Limited edition digital prints monetization is coming, do with that what you want.
My favorite mixed media piece is the genesis piece from @djkirax23. Her entire collection is a story in itself and does not disappoint. Check out her collection on foundation.app/X23.
Another special curated @artblocks_io collection. Archetype by @kGolid is one of my favorite onchain generative art collections.
Almost done...@rarepizzas wants to give away at least 10K pizzas on Bitcoin Pizza Day all over the world. Looking forward to seeing the completed generated #NFT pizzas.
The only post 2017 pixel collection project I've purchased. @i3uuve1 is a big contributor on Clubhouse and I like the effort he's putting into the Mongolian community.
NFT colors? Count me in if it is 100% on-chain, all the way down to the tokenURI being onchain. @colorverse_NFT is a first of its kind. This is my Founder's token. We don't need @pantone's approval.
I like when people push the limits of what is deemed socially acceptable. This and @Stretta_4U's contributions to the #NFT Clubhouse community has been great.
Another artist that is finding her space and artistic approach. @KristinaRadiy continues to experiment with various forms and media formats.
A is for Allen. I've got a new appreciation for calligraphy after encountering @sarah_script's work. I think she's been working on very interesting and creative pieces.
Some will tell you #NFTs are dying and are in a bubble. Maybe financially there is a bubble, but what is not a bubble are the huge number of artists and developers who are onboarding onto crypto creating communities and using Web2 platforms to build the new world based on #Web3.
Add in the historic unearthing of #MoonCats, #Etheria and #CryptoCats and everyone's #NFT story is just getting started! Buckle up!

On this .earth day, letβs talk about Nomads, ENS superdomains, NFTs, digital identity and Web3 ...Definitely worth reading to the end π§΅π
1/ This is an interesting moment for Web3β¦while our Web2 identities are co-opted by a small group of platforms, each one bidding for more of our attention, our Web3 presence is determined by our wallet activity
2/ Open, accessible, transparent transaction activityβ¦with little scope for customization/personalization. What if we gave users a way to curate their on-chain presence?
The #NFT collectibles space is exploding but it isn't a zero sum game despite how some people behave. Collectibles cover many categories so the "us vs them" narratives should be ignored. Let us learn and explore π
Avatars are the hottest collectibles right now because they easily integrate directly into our digital Web 2.0 lives. Throw one on your avatar on popular social media platforms and you're good to go. We're going to have many more successful avatar projects moving forward.
Art & media are perhaps the most difficult to grasp because the utility, like art, is nebulous. As we get enhanced ways to display/experience art, music and video content the collectible art sector will expand as it is connected to a massive existing traditional art market.
