The fact I even have to type this out is frustrating.
@opensea
you’re latest approach to NFT royalties is short-sighted, coercive, and the antithesis to a movement you’ve been a part of since the beginning.

Upon further investigation, we’ve come to realize

’s new policies around creators fees.
For new contracts they ask you to include “on-chain enforcement” when what they really mean is:
block these competitors in YOUR smart contract or we’re denying your royalty payment

I have always supported
@opensea
, but you guys are really out here coercing creators; you are defaulting to 0% royalties on all projects unless we explicitly block other marketplaces.
All the while, you still happily take 2.5%.

The ongoing debates around generative art aesthetics (re: skeuomorphism etc) came up during one of my panels last week and, for the sake of transparency, I’ll share my simple thoughts on the matter:
Artists can do whatever the f*ck they want.

My hero. 🤍
Thank you for paving the way. For allowing me to find a face I could resonate with in my early days of computer art.
Being able to work together (even in a behind-the-scenes capacity) is one of the great achievements of my life.
Adieu, Vera. Your art lives on 🕊️
With the heaviest of heart I am profoundly and deeply heart stricken to share that Vera Molnar passed away last night peacefully in her sleep.
Please retweet and share with the world that this legend lived and lived in a way that we can all
aspire to live with grace.

I cannot wrap my head around an art collector in this space purposefully circumventing royalties. It’s gross.
Trade ur shitcoins all you want, but when you acquire the work of an artist, you are saying: “I support you”
If u can’t stand by that statement, don’t touch their art.
