Run on Lucho Poletti

'Bank Runners' by Lucho Poletti sells out 1,776 unique, animated digital banknotes with Buildtree between 0.021 and 0.028 ETH each across 322 unique owners.

The collection secondary market sees an additional 1.86 ETH, with current list at 0.03 ETH.

Via Lucho Poletti:
"twelve art layer groups danced to my database’s tune, pumping out unique compositions to be rendered

each banknote is a bold, one-of-a-kind story of monetary revolution - looping in 4k resolution"

Via Curator Niftytime:
"This is being the change we want to see in action.

Running together. Collecting for the culture. Inspired by art."

RD Report


It is a slow digital art market with a backdrop of crypto uncertainty.

Rays of sunshine include the Lucho Poletti sellout, the ideal art, message, and mechanic for the present moment. OpenSea welcoming Shape L2 is a win for art. Alice Gordon continues to shine on Solana. Hafftka editions continue to move.

Botto auctions kick off today.

Today Reported:
Sales thresholds of 3 ETH+ Collection, 0.25 ETH+ 1/1, 0.7 ETH+ 1/1/X, and 0.2 ETH+ Edition artworks

Under Threshold...
...but interesting to me are two 'Chimera' /986 (Art Blocks) by mpkoz sales for 0.5 and 0.313 WETH.
