Closing Thoughts
It’s a sleepy open to the art week, following an exciting weekend (especially Saturday’s news, which included Beeple, Asprey Studio, Quasimondo, and XCOPY sales).
While macro crypto and memecoins have the virality at present, art churns along. Some may want speculative hype and sales explosions, and in that context the current phase may feel like a sobering reality. Anyone who points to aggregated charts will fail to miss the bigger picture. The landscape is more spread out than ever before across chains and L1/L2s, private sales, physical events, and small-to-moderate primary success stories. If you know, you know.
Fellowship, Sotheby’s x Lumen, BrainDrops, and more are all on tap this week. Let’s see.
