This is an interesting feature, and I’m not sure what brought me here or how this ties in to the bigger picture. I do know that when I first saw there was a token with the exact same ticker symbol as the token we created as a native currency for our platform, i thought of it as competition, by default. Which is not to say anything negative, competition is something we consider healthy, often inspiring, here at ArtistryX/SunRay Energy Initiatives.

However, upon closer inspection I can’t help but wonder if we wouldn’t be best off as collaborators, perhaps even partners. Artistry X was initially intended as a platform for artists and craftspeople to exchange ideas, marketing strategies, resources, and general information. Our original focus was going to be NFT creation and distribution. As time went on our ideas expanded further, into the realms of an online marketplace for just about anything; and our subsidiary non-profit was officially launched; a defi lending platform with subsidies for green energy and renewable resource projects. ARTX as such was intended as a governance token, as well as a native coin to streamline currency exchange.

This past year has seen a huge upheaval and re-examination of everything we want to become, as the original team drifted apart, everyone pretty much following their own agendas in the ever changing landscape of life.

At this point everything is very up in the air, but as for myself (Sunny Sides, co-founder and CEO of ArtistryX) I’m starting to see some entirely different potential emerge from the ashes of our original concept, and I am more intrigued than ever by our ‘competition’ ….I wonder if we aren’t meant to be the active, real world application wing to the financial movement of a potential future powerhouse that is Artxcapital-Phuture. If nothing else, some healthy dialogue is something I would enjoy.

We almost secured substantial funding from an Arbitrum grant, and they encouraged us to re-apply once we were a little further along with our concepts and our platform development. Perhaps that time has come- either way I hope to chat with the leadership of Artx capital. I tried to use blockscan chat, but didn’t have the proper configuration required. Or maybe it was just too late at night/early in the morning, haha
