The Last Squiggle!
Quotes via Snowfro:
“The time has come to mint Squiggle #9999. I’m so excited to finally get to see what the last output will look like and get it into the hands of LACMA.”

Closing Thoughts
It’s been a minute since the last wallet art rampage, and it’s always fun to see what someone curates. Even more interesting with this selection is the wide range of costs, for example the two The Harvest high-end rares and three Trichro-matics.
Get ready for a Squiggle party next week! Snowfro deserves the stage, and I am quite certain he will have it. Any guesses on how many “sign” the contract?
