nerding out over Web3 and NFTs.

@CryptoTamilanda On the plus side, it's still very early for crypto.

This is a shitty, painful experience, but it's possible to recover.

[pluto.eth (cylu) @cyluuuu]

@CryptoTamilanda I'm sorry to say, your funds are likely permanently gone (unless you can track down the scammers through wallet analysis or determining who created the scam website). But it'll be a tough task.

You can try asking in the Yugalabs Discord, but they'll likely say the same thing.

I watch this several times a year. I always try to put myself in the shoes of others, especially when there's something difficult going on. If there's a launch being botched, I try to think of the team. When opensea is down, I try to think of the employees

I'm excited to release a mega-post that @anishagnihotri and I have been hacking away at for the last few weeks:

@gabagooldoteth @UmiHuss @0xSisyphus @ensdomains Consider springing for a Chainalysis subscription? Or a freelancer with a subscription and experience using the service.

@gabagooldoteth @DogeBrogan @sungjae_han @0xSisyphus No clue if this person is guessing or has inside info, but may be worth checking with them about what they know...

@gabagooldoteth Can never have too many, lol

[pluto.eth (cylu) @cyluuuu]

@dcinvestor Ditto. Can anyone in Marfa set up a laptop with a zoom session open, so we can pretend we're there? lol.

@natealex @artbro_eth @MicallefAnton @FLAMINGODAO @artblocks_io @natealex is modest. After Autoglyphs, his Chainfaces are among the earliest on-chain generative artworks. Check them out.

Mooncats used the blockchain to generate art, but still required a custom JavaScript parser stored on GitHub. So they're not "on-chain", but still cool.

[pluto.eth (cylu) @cyluuuu]

@jakegallen @mrTee88734384 @ponderware @midnight426 Very interesting. But yeah, it's important not to call Mooncats the "first on-chain generative art", but that's just incorrect.

[pluto.eth (cylu) @cyluuuu]

@mrTee88734384 @ponderware Read the article. "On-chain" has a precise meaning.

Maybe call Mooncats "the first blockchain generated art" or something like that. Sounds even better.

But calling it "on-chain" is just incorrect.

[pluto.eth (cylu) @cyluuuu]

@mrTee88734384 @ponderware There are tiers of how "On-chain" an artwork is, and it's a very precise designation. Here's a good article about it: https://t.co/bHSRV2qkm7

[pluto.eth (cylu) @cyluuuu]

@mrTee88734384 @ponderware Not true. Autoglyphs instructions are stored *fully* on-chain.

Art Blocks use common libraries (and refuse custom ones) in order to minimize centralized dependencies.

Mooncats used a custom parser stored on Github, a centralized database. But it was added to Arweave this year.

@gabagooldoteth @MeniRosenfeld @CounterpartyXCP @rheaplex Sounds like Rarebit?

[pluto.eth (cylu) @cyluuuu]

@niksko @MaciejBudkowski @cdixon "Ownership" in Web3 is about the user.. users owning their data, not companies.

Centralized, privacy violating corps is what decentralization fights.

[pluto.eth (cylu) @cyluuuu]

@mrTee88734384 @SurfingOtis Autoglyphs are a diff topic, but just to add re that: they do have a smart contract output that natively shows the design. Arguably, it's *still* the most on-chain of all projects we've seen to date, as it doesnt even require any in-browser assembly.

[pluto.eth (cylu) @cyluuuu]

@mrTee88734384 @SurfingOtis But I agree, Mooncats are still fascinating. Probably need to come up with a new term.. maybe "blockchain generated" art?
