Ok seriously WHAT! Came home from the hospital with my first baby and found out I hatched this @moonbirds Mythic. SICK bird and colors are inverse of my OG 👑
Mr #NewProfilePic :
Excited for @moonbirds mythics, I think that the OG Moonbirds CC0 direction will make more sense • I was talking to @shakkablood about it yesterday, as a artist to be able to have a IP you keep in tact to market your vision and one for community to play with
OpenZeppelin scouted me out on GitHub to invite me to interview for a security researcher role a few months back.
Can confirm it's a badass job title that made me feel a lot cooler than interviewing for an 'auditor' role
great insights from @kevinrose on this space. Summary of some key points synthesized. Note: these are not quotes, they are my summarized takes based on points KRO mentioned.
1) Distributing value to holders via tokens legally is a major undertaking. Rushing could lead to huge legal spend defending SEC lawsuits. For long-term success, it's smarter to proceed towards a token smart and slow.
2) The real value for @proof_xyz and @moonbirds holders lies in the long-term appreciation of art. Quality art doesn't just appear; it involves investment in artists, like the Diamond Nest initiative. The major long-term opportunity is when we identify and support up and coming artists.
3) Proof/Moonbird holder ROI expectation can't be the floor price. This may be how NFTs worked when many of us entered the space, but with royalty revenues gone, the game has changed and some people still need to update their mindset. Floor price is influenced by 1) market conditions and 2) amount of hype created. Proof has repeatedly said they won't play the hype game anymore. It's not sustainable and doesn't do anything for long term value accrual, it only benefits traders and gamblers.
Today’s Proof of Community - Los Angeles event blew me away 💯
From visiting @PaceGallery, @LACMA, and @TheBroad on a charter bus, to first-time meetings, catching up with friends, and the PROOF Happy Hour…seeing the @proof_xyz and @moonbirds community activate and empower each other is simply amazing.
And we still have another day!
Special shout-out to @MaggiRichmond and all the community members who helped plan and make this event a reality 🙏

🦉Finally a holder ! Quick story: I watched @proof_xyz and @moonbirds mint live, wishing I had the liquidity to join in. As prices soared, I thought joining the community was out of reach.
Y’ALL. I’ve been following @theMikeElf since his DBS Open Edition and 99cent NFTs and I am so thrilled with his work on my @moonbirds! Easy money may have left the space for a bit, but the art is stronger than ever
Meeting @tylerxhobbs and seeing these curated QQLs IRL was nothing short of incredible. Thank you for putting on this tour today @proof_xyz, @PaceGallery, & Tyler.
Leaving Tokyo with a full heart and excitement for the future. Thank you to all who made it out to the @moonbirds events last night. It was an honor to be here with such kind and welcoming people. Special thanks to @JapaneseNFTgirl @tt8ships@risingbirds_xyz! Until next time ❤️
