Let’s get started and find out why this matters so much 👇 💭We made the decision to create this feature on our website to address 3 pain points: Security, Authenticity, and Royalties.

🚨 BREAKING NEWS: The third annual Art Blocks Marfa weekend will take place September 21–24, 2023! Many of you told us you’d like the event to stretch out a bit longer. The trek to Marfa requires at least half a day for nearly everyone, and a number of you spent more than a day en route last year, traveling from places as far-flung as Thailand, India, NZ, and Singapore. 🫡

🚨 IMPORTANT: Please be aware there has been an outbreak of fake Art Blocks collections being airdropped to collectors' wallets under a variation of “Art Blocks Reveal Pass.” These are all SCAMS. We have been actively reporting to OpenSea but the scammer is spinning up dozens of new collections with slight name variations as they are being taken down.

1/19 Hey all, we wanted to address and acknowledge what many in our community have told us: that a collector’s delight in minting has lately been elusive due to botting by short-term speculators. Read on 👇 2/19 We have a lot of data that validates this concern. We are mindful that the recent spike in botting-to-flip is a result not of any platform change made by Art Blocks, but rather is an adaptation in how participants in our ecosystem operate.

The sun is setting on Art Blocks Curated collections series designations.

Here is a short look back at the incredible community, artists, and collectors who brought Art Blocks to life.

While the Curated Collection will live on, Series 8 will be the last one of its kind. Image "Curated Series 1–8 will forever memorialize the history of the earliest experiments of generative art and Web 3. Artists contained in these series are the creative pioneers who helped build the infrastructure around the blockchain-based generative art movement."

READ THIS ARTICLE FIRST!

Then read below 😉

👇 Dear NFT community,

Art Blocks escalated from an amateur-built hobby to a top NFT platform in a short period of time. While it caught me completely off guard, respectable thought leaders reached out early to express their support of the vision. 👇

Hey friends! A quick update on what to expect in the next few weeks from Art Blocks!

This Sunday Jan 7th we will see the birth of our Artist Playground. Here previously curated artists will get to deploy projects on their own with few restrictions. 👇 Artist Playground artworks are not part of the official Art Blocks curated collection, but from artists that have previously qualified as curated. This is more like a traditional platform where artists have more control of their own work and announce their own schedules, etc. 👇
