Weβve reached a point where collectors can pick up anywhere from 25-50 new tracks a week.
This week we saw a strong trend of free and low priced (0.01 or 0.02 ETH) mints - all bringing in new collectors an encouraging secondary market activity.
If Iβve learned one thing - itβs that people donβt like the financialization of music.
But honestly - I think itβs an extremely exciting era for that exact reason.
Giving fans and curators the capacity to make money off their taste has never really happened before.
Itβs scary because it puts a price on music. But what makes it exciting is that thereβs a way to engage with music beyond a social flex.
And while thereβs a lot of nuance to it, I find it to be the genuinely most exciting relationship with music Iβve ever had.
The concept of minting a song that quickly sells out, watching other people buy it later and knowing that you hold something that feels *rare* and has the sales to back?
Unmatched.
And when you hear that song at a show or when it comes up on Spinamp? It hits different.
I spent the weekend at ETHSF - and noticed that music currently doesnβt have a deep footprint in the Ethereum developer community.
That will change.
I teamed up with Bankless to cover some of the leading artists in web3.
Their time will come.
Thereβs truly never been to a better time to dive in.
Hereβs what to watch for this week.
