“This whole experience has been highly reenergizing for me, thinking through not just the 10 foot view that is often hard to overlook, but the 100,000 foot view of why I, and many of us, are here in the first place.
I want to share a final heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone that signed the Squiggle Farewell contract, and again to 0xDEAFBEEF for bringing the whole concept to life.”

Closing Thoughts
Collections, chains, and contracts - oh my!
It is a day to remember with a little something for everyone. Outside of top headlines, Frontline artworks distribute and see a big day on secondary and VVD continues a Die With The Most Likes surge, with Blondie23LMD joining the fun. My guess is DWTML’s first mint is about to move, with it being transferred off Foundation to OpenSea. The owner has engaged in several transactions with VVD. Is this the next (and biggest) domino to fall between the two of them?
