24 Hours of Art: April 10, 2025

XCOPY Guzzler

You have 100 ETH and a passion for XCOPY. What do you do?

An anonymous wallet (also with 3 CryptoPunks) makes these choices for 99.04 ETH total:


The day does not stop, and separately there are 6 more sales of 14+ ETH:

Via Jediwolf:
"XCOPY 'market' is showing stunning dynamics. When we started The Doomed DAO we assumed this would happen - but not during an ETH bear. One important tip: don't buy just because prices are going up. Buy works that truly resonate with you. If none are available - wait."

Busy Art Movement

Via James Merrill:
"I am beyond honored to see the interest in BUSY materialize into a great and intense final-hour auction! It feels incredible to connect with collectors and friends over generative art, and I am more convinced than ever that we're in the midst of a major art movement with plenty of time to leave a mark."

RD Report

This is starting to remind me of the outset of 2024. 24 Hours of Art had recently shifted to every day reporting and daily ART designs. "XCOPY again?" was a familiar refrain. Yes, indeed it is XCOPY again. A fresh cycle is upon us.

Lots of art talk variety this week with 5 consecutive days of hosted shows and guest appearances. Bring on day 4, as we head to DarrenSRS's 'The Metaverse Show' at 10:00am ET. See you out there!


Today Reported:
Sales thresholds of 3 ETH+ Collection, 0.3 ETH+ 1/1, 0.6 ETH+ 1/1/X, and 0.3 ETH+ Edition

Catch Up: The DAM Show - SuperRare Special

Yesterday it was a SuperRare Special, as we welcomed John Crain, Jonathan Perkins, and Zack Yanger to The DAM Show. They shared perspectives on the recent Offline Gallery opening, Transient Labs partnership, and of course our recently announced 2025 partnership.

mARTch Madness:

In the end, it is...

Chromie Squiggle by Snowfro!

The not at all official, for art and vibes only, mARTch Madness 2025 Tournament, spearheaded by Ryland with bracket design love from Deconstruct has concluded.

This was enjoyable. Ryland - what a successful beta test for future group endeavors. Onward!


Yesterday's ART:

Print ART.

The 98th design of 2025 riffs off of a Jack Butcher 'Print Screen' framework to reflect on this moment in XCOPY.
