Closing Thoughts
The thermostat is rising across art!
Two indicators of different shapes and sizes are Art Blocks and Nifty Gateway seeing a Dutch auction and an Open Edition trade up after open access release formats.
It’s been a minute since we’ve seen a sweep as hefty as Pranksy’s in art, following up the Gordon Goner pfp focused buys. Fidenza and Ringers were the choices.
Several items buried on lists would normally be key headlines - most notably The Memes by 6529 and XCOPY activity. Find the early AI buys. What else stands out to you?
