Concept leads an otherwise slow day in the digital art market.
Jack Butcher is firmly on the "throne" (cheers VVD) of thought leadership in Web3.
Once upon a time, Pak had that title. Before you pitchfork me for drawing that comparison, there is a distinct similarity and a distinct difference between the two.
Similar is their control of audience and unparalleled surprise and delight based marketing containing multiple layers (and thus serving multiple layers of audience).
Different is their distribution of value. Thus far, Butcher has operated through a shared lens, in many cases outright free minting, only to pour endless effort into creating something larger (and valuable) for his audience. Pak did not operate through that lens.
I often think about the pursuit of win-win scenarios as a superpower of this stage in blockchain based artistic expression. Butcher is a master of it. It affords him a deserved benefit of the doubt as he builds and plays in the real-time public eye.
Today Reported:
Sales thresholds of (USD) $10k+ Collection, $1k+ 1/1, $2.5k+ 1/1/X, and $1k+ Edition artworks
Under threshold and interesting to me is 'QUITTING TIME' 1/1 by DK selling for 0.19459 ETH to baiwei.eth.
The eighth ART of 2025 plays with the concept of Anna Ridler's Price Per Stem, positioning Winds of Yawanawa as the peonies (read yesterday's headline story for full context). Fidenza "Rose Colors" are lightly homaged as a final touch on a floral day.
