Today I took time to bridge the gap (or at least take a step in that direction) between #ArtBlocks and #FxHash
Here is a market review, including artists that have released collections on both platforms.

This chart could be misleading as #ArtBlocks volume in 2021 was much higher than in 2022, and #FxHash volume has been trending upward this year.
Again, we are only considering selected artists and collections, not all qualified collections, for practical reasons.

Let’s talk about the texture of Running Moon today. Texture development is undoubtedly the most exciting and challenging part of the dev process that took most of my time. It is also an element that has shifted dramatically over the months.

Running Moon was initially influenced by my plotter practice: It was rendered in SVG and had a very precise feeling. There were lines and subtle gradients. I think outputs at this stage would produce exciting plotter paintings, but as standalone pieces, they need more.

When robots physically render my work, they add additional layers of surprises. I hope to find that element of surprise in Running Moon. Therefore, I started experimenting with techniques that were beyond my comfort zone and ended up with many “failed’ experiments.

Today I want to share more about the color palettes of Running Moon. Running Moon has a collection of 36 color palettes. Each palette contains 6 seed colors. The final painting uses variations generated from these 6 colors.

Why 6? My plotter painting practice influences it. In my plotter watercolor practice, I found 6 to be my stable choice because 6 colors can produce a diverse range of variations with some mixing, but going above 6 could lead to some dull colors for me.

I started Running Moon with a much smaller set of color palettes, primarily in the yellow-blue range; here are some early outputs. Although I originally planned to keep Running Moon close to this range, I decided to try some other combinations for fun...

Thrilled to announce that my generative art program, Running Moon, will be launched as the first release of @artblocks_io Curated Series 8 next Wed., July 13th, at 12 pm CT.

Running Moon depicts the nuanced interaction between clouds and moonlight. It is a search for boundaries between structure and fluidity, precision and errors. It's a quest for harmony. The rendering of Running Moon is inspired by stained glass and watercolor.

1/ What is JPEG'd?
With first mover advantage in the space, JPEGd is a decentralised lending platform enabling borrowers to use their NFT's as the collateral for their loan. Truly bridging the gap between NFTs and DeFi.

2/ With liquidity being one of the most important aspects of every market and asset, it seems a natural progression for DeFi to tap in to the illiquid nature of NFTs, allowing investors to further leverage their assets whilst maintaining ownership for long term appreciation.
1/ 🧵Observations on sources of pricing efficiencies for the art NFT market
From what I see there seems to be several categories of pricing inefficiencies - read on 👇

We've gone gold! 100 unique arts and metadata generated by AI are dropping 25th September with the first collection "World Cities"! Check the mint page here: worldcities.aiphotos.art
Unique traits generated by GPT-3.
GPT-3 was trained on the context of talking about cities and then proceeded to generate metadata (traits and description) for each one of the 100 cities available in this collection.

Unique art generated using high-end deep learning focused GPUs.
We have used cloud GPUs to run deep learning AI which received the name and description of each city and then generated a unique PNG for each of them. All images do not have any human interference.

There were 100 Satoshi Lambo's created in 2018
Serial numbers 5,6,7,8,10,13,14 are on wallets dormant for 3 years
#11 wallet generates an error
These 8 Satoshi's are likely "lost" and not reclaimable

An additional 5 Vitaliks (# 8, 10, 11, 15, 34) and 5 other Lambos are also lost on the above wallets.
#1 and #4 are on active wallets with no NFT activity for 1 year. Owners are possibly unaware of their existence. These could re-surface.

1/ My three favorite too-old-to-fail #NFT projects:
> RarePepes
> CryptoArte
> CurioCards
The 3 are the oldest in their respective categories

The 3 are still greatly undervalued compared to the 2nd oldest

2/ #RarePepes
The oldest popular NFT project in history
It's older than the 2nd oldest popular project (CryptoPunks) but much cheaper.
Eg:
most expensive CryptoPunk ever sold >> $ 11.7 Million
most expensive rare pepe (a 1/1 piece) >> $300k.
That's 40x room to grow!

The oldest collectible on Ethereum
It's older than the 2nd oldest Ethereum collectible project (CryptoPunks) and yet much cheaper.
Eg:
global CryptoPunks sales to date: 328k Ξ
global CurioCards sales to date: 9k Ξ
Again, that's 40x room to grow!
