Closing Thoughts
It’s been a year and a half since the Beeple ecosystem was at current levels in ETH terms (and longer in USD terms). Strong marker.
The collection section is where it’s at today. Volume creeps back in overall. Fellowship has a highlight week underway to close out a Daily year. Sotheby’s and Lumen close their auctions today, and a 30k USD bid is now in on Sougwen Chung’s artwork. Here comes mpkoz on Art Blocks, here comes Sasha Stiles with Iconic, here come Hayden Clay and Daniel Koeth to debut SHILLR’s season.
