This is why I love Opepen. @jackbutcher doesn’t do what he thinks other people might like or want.
He expresses his artistic vision without compromise.
The limits, trade offs and risks he takes make this collection special.
@opepenedition@visualizevalue I should clarify that I am fully aware that the "VV" set above probably resonates faster (aesthetically) with the majority of people than where we ended up, but I will explain why the direction we chose feels like a stronger long term contribution to the collection
@jackbutcher To be honest: what I still don’t get is the whole voting and cummunity art part.
It used to be sets released by you, now it’s a mix, some of it from artists of the community? But they first need to be approved by some voting? Then what? Is it a set? Optin as normal? confusing.
@jackbutcher Really impressed you noticed something needed to change. It’s easy to get caught up in using something daily and not noticing its shortcomings.
I am an opepen holder and followed you for a while, but even I, after a year of distance to the space can’t figure it out. 1/2
We have been reverse engineering the XZ Utils backdoor and are sharing some initial findings: we've identified multiple hooking options to adapt to different environments, and a hardcoded fake public key that can appear in verbose SSH logs depending on attacker-controlled flags.
@jackbutcher Is there a way to subscribe to get updated on new set drops? Maybe add a newsletter just for drops?
I have the bell here active but the set drops sometimes get buried under all your other posts
@jackbutcher Is there a way to signup and get notified when a set drops?
I’ve missed the last one and i already have the bell actived here on X
Cheers mate ✌️
@fau1in@JoePompliano It’s 100k not 1M. So 500 x 200$ Tickets per Seat. Seems reasonable. Also people spend money on overpriced food, drinks, merch and other stuff while inside.
