Closing Thoughts
How about a day during which neither XCOPY or Beeple are in the headlines (although to be fair, both still see activity).
Instead it is Art Blocks leading the day as Squiggles dominate and Fidenza, Gazers, Meridian, Memories of Qilin, and more are active. Let’s see if this sparks a sustainable resurgence.
Also of note (I suppose we do have to discuss XCOPY after all) are a few singular collectors continuing with conviction. Rhynotic now owns 10% of Rabbles and Roses focuses on REMNANTS.
