1/ Perhaps alone, I continue my Art Blocks Curated quest 😉

Today, Asemica by @emailyedelman, @andrewbadr, and @dimaofman

Full set of 6529 Museum pieces below
8/ 474

I think possibly my favorite, but not sure yet. I like them all.
9/ I think these are cool. I think @artblocks_io is cool. But that is just me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

1/ On Fiat Culture

NFTs are the scarcest cultural objects ever made, the only cultural objects with pristine provenance.

They are not BTC, but they will behave over time in ways that emotionally parallel BTC for the $100T in global intangibles.
2/ Let's start by looking at the numbers. I have read the ICOM Working Group on Collections in Storage report so you don't have to.

Here are how many objects, on average, museums have Image
3/ Or to take well-known museums:

a/ MoMA (200K objects, 2M film stills)
b/ Louvre: 615K
c/ Met: 1.5M
d/ Hermitage: 3M
e/ British Museum: 8M
f/ Smithsonian: 157M

1/ I'm back, after an 8-day o3-fueled maker's scheduler.

I naturally much prefer the maker's schedule but unfortunately spend almost all my life in the manager's schedule, stealing hours here or there for maker's schedule Image
2/ Holidays are great because people don't bother me as much so I can slip into maker's schedule

I did it at Xmas this year (solved some hard issues that were bothering me) and did it again at Easter (solved some other hard issues that were bothering me)
3/ In principle, I would like to spend a lot more time on maker's schedule but I think it is quite hard in practice.

Even a lot of people who I admire as makers seem to end up at a lot of manager events and activities.

I think it is inevitable

1/ On SZN11

The first Meme Card of SZN11 (Wed) - "Pepe X" by @Ars0nic has been selected.

This is a historic day in The Memes because it was not selected by me, it was not selected by @6529er, it was not selected by a curation board.

It was selected by a plurality of TDH... Image
2/ What is TDH? TDH is the central metric of 6529, the network state-to-be, the decentralized society-to-be.

I will explain what it means mathematically but I want to first explain what it means conceptually to me, how we got here and how this is only the beginning
3/ When 6529 booted to life in summer 2021, I had one goal and I still have one goal.

To build a decentralized "state" or "society" that can do things, at scale, without centralized points of failure

I said it would take until 2030. We are right on track.

1/ On How I Am Allocated

The punchline is not a surprise: almost all BTC and NFTs, and a smattering of other things

I am not sure, however, I've explained in one place why.

As always, this is highly personal and I'm not saying any of this is right for you
2/ 2013 to 2020 I was pretty much a BTC maxi

I traded some 2013 alts in Fall 2013 (Cryptsy!) and realized that:
a) I hated it
b) I was not any good at it
c) I was going to eventually lose all my money regardless of if BTC was GMI
3/ So one day cold turkey I just stopped trading, said

"OK, I have these BTC, stop looking at price, don't fomo, don't cope"

I was a medium sized BTC evangelist back them.

Despite this, most friends, colleagues, family dumped their BTC in 2014-2016

1/ On Infinite Inference

I used to be a good amateur photographer. A long time ago, a friend was worried that the cycle of growth in hard drives was coming to an end.

I asked him why?

"Well, my business documents are only 5 GB or whatever - isn't my 30 GB drive enough?"
2/ I said "what about photographs?"

He showed me his phone with 3Mb photos and said "but I take 5 a day so even this is 5GB/year so ok maybe we go to 100 GB"

And I laughed and laughed and laughed.
3/ Humans can visually discern the following:

Detail: ~ 1 arcminute (1/60th of a degree)
Color Depth: 8 to 12-bit color depth per channels
Channels: 3
Frames per second: 90 to 120 for decent VR

If you want to capture and store this in 360 degree angles...

1/ On So Few NFTs, So Many NFTs

Are NFTs the scarcest assets in the crypto universe?

Are NFTs an endless no-barriers-to-entry stream of good, mid and worthless tokens?

Buckle up. This is a long one. 60+
2/ A few days ago, we discussed that a necessary, but not sufficient factor, for Bitcoin’s success was its 21M hard cap on tokens.

If you have not read this thread, go ahead and read it now

3/ Today, I am going to ignore the other factors of Bitcoin’s success and focus on the scarcity aspect.

A common phrase was: “If every millionaire wanted to own a bitcoin, there are not enough bitcoins to go around"
