This one has it all! A Hybrid (contains all 3 masters), with the Interference Event trait and Tricolor palette. Could get lost in this one for a while. Thank you for supporting 🇻🇪🙏🏽
Mint yours at https://t.co/ksBMUp6Wp2
Great art for a great cause + learned about three legends of modern art!
Check out Cinética by @JNSilva_ minting is still going on and 100% of funds go to Venezuela earthquake relief – rebuilding airports, critical infrastructure, and cultural pathways.

‘dying is is not enough,’ site is live. you can view the whole goddamn thing now. every organ that’s poured from my body for the last year or so.
the expanse of our existence distilled in 75 poems and pieces. feels special to be sharing it with you all.
thank you.
It might not feel like it but imo the digital art & NFT space is positioned better than ever
On the art/artist side, we're seeing:
A clear rise in thoughtful, novel and well executed releases that celebrate the networked opportunities that blockchains uniquely provide — and also a rise in those leveraging the skill/creativity/functionality unlocks that AI offers
Few examples:
- Birds by @nicedayJules x @mungimungimungi
- Windows by @dave_krugman
- GLiFS by @EfdotStudio
- Economy of Words by @jackbutcher x @visualizevalue
- Vessel by @stephensantoro_ x @producedbydav
- Normies by @serc1n
- Terminal Pro by @DXRGai
- BrinkWorks by @bryanbrinkman
- "Artificial After All" by @hanrgb along with his collab w/ @jalilwahdat + @yougogirl_eth "Hello World Computer"
- Psychic Hotline by @oliviapedi w/ @Romenewmedia
- @beeple taking over Art Basel and IRL with robots, AI and live performance art + collectible releases
Amongst collectors & patrons:
• @AdamWeitsman continues to put the space on his back as a patron and builder
• @batsoupyum x @musicalnetta deploying both capital, attention and tremendous care to artists
• @redbeardnft traveling to a new city/country basically every week to champion digital/crypto artists to major institutions & collectors
• @RogerDickerman and team continuing to provide incredible, unwavering coverage of the digital art market via @24_Hours_Art
• Dan Sundheim quietly rotating some SpaceX IPO profits into 30+ @cryptopunks
On the platform/team side:
• Big recent updates from @verse_works that make the market easier to understand + engage with
• Major improvements by @SuperRare, experiments with liquid editions / editions, feed UX
• @raster_art providing a very clean UX that unifies profiles & work across chains and platforms
• @gondixyz continuing to add features that support the secondary art + collectible market
• @nodefnd thoughtfully stewarding Punks while supporting other great artists and building bridges to IRL
• @opensea's new mobile app development is very strong and could be a great first touch for new collectors/enjoyers
• @punk6529 Memes evolving from a curated artist drop into a decentralized networked society
• Rekt by @osf_rekt continuing to ship sellout products and global IRL presence evolving from an NFT collection
• @Rhynotic x @token_works endless experimentation at the intersection of mad science x NFT infra
• @derekedws, @magey_mage and @maltefr_eth continue to intentionally invest in and support artists via @glitchmarfa while nurturing the full set holder community
• @artblocks_io + @ArtOnBlockchain representing generative art at Basel, continuing to support great releases and provide space for the community to connect at Marfa 2026
• Just announced + one to watch: @Automatdotart
Outside of our 𝕏 bubble we see:
• @eli_schein putting on yet another phenomenal Zero 10 exhibition at Basel, this time alongside @trevorpaglen — leading to +$4M (est.) in Artist sales in collab with galleries like @artblocks_io, @fellowshiptrust and @AspreyStudio — many of which seem to be to trad. collectors & institutions
• @ArtBasel x UBS reported that digital art's share of the art market increased by 200% from 2024 to 2025
• Awareness, trust and use of stablecoins and neobanks is up only
• Signalling taste is up only
• Preference for true asset ownership is up only
• The TCG market is growing while increasingly behaving like savvy crypto users & digital collectors (See my 𝕏 article for more info)
• Teams like @fomo onboarding thousands of new, real users daily, realizing crypto wont grow strictly from CT — a strat that will surely catch on
• Massive platforms like @RobinhoodCrypto coming onchain in the wake of @HyperliquidX's success and regulatory + infra clarity/easing
• Major AI companies hiring & building teams of digital artists & creators to help create new media formats, technologies and steward taste in an agentic, internet-native world — also seeing creatives with deep roots in the NFT space playing key roles at growing orgs like Prime & Nous
• A wave of newly minted millionaires & billionaires in the wake of AI IPOs
• Digital products & digital creator patronage outside of crypto are on the rise, signalling both increased valuing of the intangible & preference for directly supporting creators
The thread is tangled but the scene it's weaving is clear.
The maturation of this space has been steadily accelerating since it first made global waves in 2021
Those within it — artists, patrons, participants, platforms and teams — continue to evolve and build more useful, beautiful and interesting things that exceed previous standards of being "good enough" for CT
There are vast numbers of people not yet "here" that are increasingly signalling preference & openness for what crypto, blockchains and digital assets uniquely offer
Bridges and infra are being built to and from this industry to support, connect and empower both groups
Despite the setbacks and volatility crypto & digital art markets have endured, the stage has never been set this optimally before
The future is bright and exciting
Just minted my first piece of generative art in a long time and supported a good cause while at it.
JN is a good friend and one hell of an artist.
100% of the proceeds go to victims of the Venezuela earthquakes.
If you're an enjoyer of NFTs, go check it out.
If you are from Venezuela you know it has been hard to go back to normalcy…
But i’m trying to focus on the positive creating pieces that give hope and focus on all the love we have received from around the world 🙏❤️ Gracias
I just started a 10 day open edition on @objktcom to help people in Venezuela. 100% of the primary sales of this piece will be automatically sent to @DyanelaArts and @PonseLakiva.
Serenity Now!
OE for 10 days

Cinética #89, minted by @musicalnetta.
A beautiful Hybrid with Deep Nesting composition, and the Orquídea color palette.
Fun fact: the Flor de Mayo (scientific name Cattleya mossiae) is Venezuela’s national flower.
Deeply grateful for your support!
Being a Venezuelan artist during this tragedy has been extremely challenging… 🇻🇪💔
I feel shattered and broken inside.
It hurts so much, but Art has become my only salvation.
