Closing Thoughts
Yes, NFTs tend to move via groupthink and trends. Yes, it is *still* wild to see a single artist possess 5/7 collection volume slots for several days running. Jack Butcher has seized control of the narrative and hasn’t yet let go.
I’m enjoying watching Seedphrase (DANNYSECURE) move, making convicted bet after convicted bet. This time the target was CENTURY by Casey REAS and in on brand fashion, it was about targeting two rare editions, not the floor.
A few intriguing 2019 1/1s change hands. We see a Sam Spratt Player edition swap. What do you feel fair spread is between a finalist and non-finalist edition? My guess is > 1 ETH in the long run.
