This Is My AlignDRAW
A fresh wave of excitement breaks out around ‘alignDRAW’ /2,709 by Elman Mansimov, the collection of first text-to-image artworks (2015) released with Fellowship in late 2023.
31 sales are in for 39.11 ETH (avg: 1.26 ETH), with list now at 1.49 ETH.
Via Alex:
“Previous owner of Zombie and Ape that sold two of the biggest punk grails of the year immediately rolling funds into AlignDraw and has been accumulating for at least the past 7 months”
Several collectors respond with the refrain:
“This is my AlignDRAW. There are 'few' like it, and this one is mine.”

Closing Thoughts
It is a measured close to the weekend, with alignDRAW driving the excitement.
The Summer season is just about cleared out, with its holidays behind us. My eyes are on later this week and mainly next week through end of month to see whether a Fall season surge is on the horizon line. There is plenty of macro (and US election) uncertainty, and while it’s no guarantee, it would certainly be nice to see. There will be several major primary releases acting as indicators.
