Living The Meme

'I AM BECOME MEME' by 6529er via The Memes by 6529 swiftly sells out.

It is minted with the description "there's living the dream, and there's living the meme".

The final edition count is 397 after a front-end glitch gifts Phase 1 subscribers with an extra. In the words of punk6529: "If you got lucky... do something good with it."

27 secondary sales are in for 6.71 ETH, averaging 0.25 ETH for the originally 0.06529 ETH each edition.

Via NachoWeb3:
"No artist gets the Meme concept better than 6529er. His contributions aren't always flashy, but they just nail it. This card, along side the two others in the tryptic, bring the memetic fire for punk6529's collection."

RD Report


While not a banner day, it had a little bit of everything. The 'DAILY RARE' program - daily, weekday curations of single artists - went live with SuperRare. Socials were charged with SR energy, and we even saw a Mark Cuban RT of DK's work (the first and still live DAILY RARE).

The day marked the anniversary of artist Alotta Money's passing. Each anniversary I spend time with this interview. I've done many but no other resonates quite like it.

Here it is in raw form (nearly two hours to get to know the legend), and here is a short form remix by the epic Eclectic Method. Worth your time.

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

CATCH UP: The DAM Show
AlienQueen, Grida, and Alejandro Cartagena joined me for a strong art-centric dialogue, reviewing AQ's still live 'Love & Death' solo exhibition in Paris at Artverse, and diving into all recent AI agents, events, and releases with Alejandro. Here is the recording.


CATCH UP: 2-4 Minutes of Masquerade
This series exists to update the Sam Spratt Masquerade in progress

We open a new week with Episode 15, highlighting the last few hours of Masquerade's Phases, as well as the anniversary of the Skulls of Luci minting (today!) and Bryan Brinkman's Barrel of Monkeys.
