[Solana @solana]

@CandyDigital is moving fan collectibles to Solana, with migration beginning in May.

Its catalog spans sports, entertainment, and culture, built on partnerships with major IP holders.

Major fan assets are moving toward faster, more open ownership.

[Candy @CandyDigital]

Collab of the century?!

@beeple x Candy 👀

[Candy @CandyDigital]

[Tad Smith @tadtweets]

👀 We are delighted to have @mattynovo @stevenbelser @ensomniac @theantoinesolis @Versifyxo @yofrebo @AA_RonCasanova @Juliayfsmith and Laibo @CandyDigital . Hope to announce a closed deal this coming week. Progress for our fans being made anyway!🔥🚀

👀
The light comes back first.
Then the warmth. 🔥
Then the quiet stir of things
we thought were gone.

Nothing is ever truly lost —
only waiting for its season
to be reborn.🌹

@CandyDigital returns Monday. 🤫
The “interim https://t.co/MGGOC2fmLg” won’t impress,
but fans will be able to see what they own.

After Monday we race to unlock it,
give our fans self-custody,💪
many more treasures to own,🏆
and games to play chasing them. 🚀

Happy Spring‼️

[Tad Smith @tadtweets]

👀 On Friday I doubled down on my commitment to digital collectibles by agreeing to acquire most of the assets of @CandyDigital (https://t.co/MGGOC2fmLg). When the transaction closes in a week or two, I will also serve as CEO. 💪

My view is that the sustained value of digital collectibles of all kinds requires transparency, security, liquidity, scarcity, and desirability. https://t.co/MGGOC2fmLg intends to provide all five of those benefits for past and future fans. Agentic and #AI commerce will cause velocity and value to soar where crypto rails make transactions easy and clear digital ownership and rock solid authenticity exist. 🔥

https://t.co/MGGOC2fmLg will operate by a few simple values on my watch: the Golden Rule for all involved; respect for licensor brands and artists; relentless focus on fan experience; frequent communication often from me.💪

My email address is [email protected] for those who want to reach me directly. Please follow @CandyDigital as well for more communication. Our site has been in maintenance mode — frustrating (I know!) — but our many fans are about to have their patience rewarded.🙏

More details on the platform, relaunch, and some dazzling new collectibles and #NFTs you can’t get anywhere else are coming as soon as we close the deal. 👍

We’re not starting over on https://t.co/MGGOC2fmLg. We’re picking up something extraordinary and making it better. 📈🔥🚀‼️

Please join me to write the next chapter of https://t.co/MGGOC2fmLg. 🫡

@a1111ac011d0 Working on a fix for that!

[Harrison @Versifyxo]

I am super proud to announce the
“Smith Family Digital Art Collection”.

This platform is designed to help artists find a place to share their work so that it can find the right home and connect aspiring artists to collectors looking for something new!

I would like to thank @batsoupyum for inspiring @tadtweets and I to create this initiative.

The link below will take you to a portal where you can apply your works in order to join in.

https://t.co/oWfuwVXh21

Thank you so much!

A note:
Please do be aware of scammers

I will only be choosing art sent to the site itself, not in DMs or posts.

Thank you for your patience as picking the right emerging art for this collection will take time.

[Harrison @Versifyxo]

@davedaartist Currently yes- Eth provides the most convenience on the back end right now for us

[Harrison @Versifyxo]

@jricardomotta Yup just caught the missing mp4 and will iterate!

[Harrison @Versifyxo]

[Harrison @Versifyxo]

@cafromthesky @tadtweets @redbeardnft @batsoupyum Hey! I personally have no problem with you including 3-5 pieces that is totally okay with me!
