Closing Thoughts

Yesterday we discussed market inefficiencies, and Benji is the next to get a Beeple offer through on Nifty Gateway, with the edition of REBIRTH selling for $15k.

Patrick Amadon goes live with Disobedients today, and the distribution mechanic is worth looking into. He essentially makes bidder’s editions out of all of his multi-year, multi-chain 1/1 artworks. It’s an intriguing way to holistically look at a body of work and its participants, providing a connection. I’m still thinking it through (in a good way), but an early expectation is that we'll see others go this route in the near-ish future.
