Any interest in a little private discord to share news about genuinely creative nft projects? Would help me not miss things and happy to share thoughts. I like positive, respectful non spammy places so if anyone else is like minded I could open one up. cc

Fed up of NFT thefts, constantly signing messages and transactions exposing your NFTs, and want to go on holiday without carrying crypto and missing drops?
This is the thread for you!

Last week it was the environment. This week it's a pyramid scheme. I told everyone this had nothing to do with the environment ever and was all about hate on new things.

What? You're not? This is literally the best alpha I've ever given.

As much as I love NFTs, the constant direct unsolicited shilling of terrible collections/art by some is a blight on all of us. My mute list is getting ever bigger.
Please can projects stop insisting on token holders being in Discord to hear news. It's not viable to be on 100+ different discords and have to do something often with little notice. Give us a newsletter and use it sparingly and wisely.
Please don't write to me asking how to make money from NFTs. The get rich quick crowd hold no interest for me and you're going to get burned the moment the bull market goes away. Some of us have been doing this for years, the hard way.
Shout out to Alchemix / $ALCX because it's one of the best (the best?) thing in DEFI right now. Liquidation free collateral based loans that pay themselves off. You heard me.
*shill for the day (but it's really good)

auction. I'm donating a portion of its sale to support the cryptopunks/meebits community/creators and covid charitable causes.
Gas fees are down and I'm being spammed and tagged in by unoriginal artists again. Life is back to normal. No, you're punk clone project is not interesting. Yes you're being muted.
Creativity is rewarded. I don't reward clones and spam.
I'll set up a new -private- discord for metaverse builders/enthusiasts primarily, and maybe some public / semi-public areas. However, there will be strict behaviour rules and maybe an anti spam entry fee / nft (any fees donated to builders or charity - no profits)
Finished my DMs. A lot of money and buy my art for me or for charity requests! No offence to anyone but that's not happening.
Any charity donations will be later in the year, well-vetted, and covid related only through one or more real world registered charities.
NFT projects using a pricing curve - unless you have an insanely strong project or a very low top price, you're setting yourself up to fail. Don't do that. Learn from AI42 and others. Good projects are damaged by this pricing model. Set a low price or narrow bands, sell out, FOMO
Nft.ldn London's NFT event for when we can't get to new york - look out for news tomorrow as tickets will be limited.
Dates nov 6/7 (sat/sun).
Fingers crossed - we're 95% of the way there.
gm especially everyone trying to make a london nft event happen. Still critical roadblocks to remove so fingers crossed. Dates 5/6 or 6/7 nov as things stand.
After a longer than expected foreign break which resulted in a rescued kitten being adopted, I'm back to catch up with NFT madness. Seems I missed a lot!
But first, meet our new kitten (once jabbed and healthy!)
On Weds night I bought Covid Alien 1 hour before someone else bought an alien for $7.5m, then another sold for $7.5m! And
@beeple
sold for $69m!
The last 48 hours have been the most bizarre of my life 😱😱😱😱😱

Artists need to be moving to hardware wallets. It's a not a cure all but I've worried about artist reliance on metamask etc for months. Stores need to stop relying on single addresses for identity as that encourages poor security.

There is only one sillytuna. No team. No beans. No chickens. Little art. Just tuna. And silly.
Also, Sillytuna and not Silly Tuna or SillyTuna. That would be silly.
Listening to an nft room right now and oh my god it's an epic festival of self promotion. It's a battle for who can garner the most love and sympathy; not a lot of honesty or genuine art imho.
In 2013 I purchased a 25 BTC

Casascius coin. If anyone knows a Bitcoiner with a taste for history, I'm open to finally parting with it. Unspent and stored in a bank vault. Coin on the left, serious enquiries only. Featured in a TedX too :)

Nft.ldn - wow wow wow. Can't believe we pulled it off. 2.5 weeks from start to finish. Thanks so much to everyone who made it happen and attended.

Special thanks to them, gail

Reminder: I'll be donating to a covid charity, find a way to help some new artists, and supporting projects around punks/meebits and maybe more. After a summer off anyway.
Resorted to blocking the people who are taking insane views on nfts for my own welfare. Do not argue with random people on the internet, share educational materials to those prepared to listen instead.
I'm disappointed by negative people, those who think themselves smarter than everyone else, those who bully, and those who use misaligned ethics to hate on others.
Social media empowers and rewards these destructive people.
Positivity and positive people rewards mental health.
I know there are plenty of nft alpha discords folks, this is more about a place for 'sillytuna and co' if you like my slightly rubbish but positive and collaborative way of doing things. Builders especially welcome.
Christies cryptopunk sale just under $17m, so basically held the price in ether terms at 🔥4200 eth🔥
That was with buyer rules that I suspect were too stringent. Working to try and ensure it can be more open for my sale.
Discord update - the idea took off more than I imagined so I'm working up the idea with a few peeps before sending any links out. I don't get a lot of time so I want to ensure it's manageable and useful. Looking forwards to connecting builders and collectors :)
There is no possible way to keep up with even 1% of whats's going on. I'm resigned to wiping most of my research list and focusing on a few areas only from now on. Must not FOMO!
Ethereum may have approximately the same CO2 output as Youtube and NFTs are less than 3% of Ethereum’s use. One of those is an enormous company, the other is a community project striving for change. Who are you giving grief to?And artists of all people?
I'm totally overwhelmed by the number of projects around games and art NFTs now. It's a cambrian explosion of crazy. Back in 2015 I started dreaming of all this - and now it's happening. Just WOW!
Nft.ldn is nothing to do with me - sorry to those who keep asking me about it and why it costs so much. It's an entirely different and commercial team from .
Mulling over starting og nft ldn!

sale - (more info - my Clubhouse tomorrow 10pm BST - NFT Rants)
My journey started in 2013 when I came to a realisation about Bitcoin - it could be used to send digital items! I even designed how to do it using a protocol similar to Counterparty.
The neat thing about having done a huge nft sale is now I can just watch and enjoy projects without fomo'ing* in.
*mostly. Terms and conditions may apply.

I'd like you to retweet this please. It's the least you can do.
Royalties have been one of the biggest sales pitches for NFTs, particularly to brands and established artists.
Essentially removing them is a spectacular way of shooting ourselves in the foot and plays fully into the idea that NFTs are only about trading.
Stop this idiocy.
