niftytimeInfinite Care & Unbounded Attention
This piece of writing was originally published on Cent back on Dec. 18, 2018 under the title “New Governments & New Communities.” I’m re-publishing it here because the promise of proper crypto social products is again palpable, and I believe the tenets of infinite care & unbounded attention are as pertinent as ever for founders of crypto social products in particular to embody and exhibit.To form a new government requires infinite care and unbounded attention, for if the foundation is badly l...
niftytimeAll The New Golden Ages
The following piece of writing was originally published Nov. 4 2020 over on my old Cent page reflecting on my then half decade being a part of crypto (3 years as a builder and 2 years digging down into the rabbit hole). Honestly though, this piece feels more relevant now than ever, so I’m re-sharing it and putting it onchain."I saw a vision of us move in the dark; all that we did or dreamed of..." That quote is from The Tower Beyond Tragedy by Robinson Jeffers. What a trip. I've been ref...

niftytime[Thursday Thoughties] Same Same But Right
The emergence of a trendy, new sector in the digital space is often followed by an explosion of same same but different products or services. Thank you concentrated innovation at the speed of light on money steroids. Think about all the early attempts at internet search. A lot of semi-successful names like Netscape and Yahoo come to mind, but ultimately Google with their focus on an uncluttered UI, speed, and accuracy won that early battle. There were several attempts at e-commerce early on a...

August ended up being a bit busier on the collecting front than I was originally expecting. In a good way of course.
I collected some gems including a brand new Sarah Zucker [pictured above], some amazing works off of Nifty Gateway by a few artists I have long admired and finally had the great pleasure of producing, as well as my first cryptoart on Solana over on the Exchange Art platform.
You can peruse all of the works I collected below.
toucher de l'herbe #10/30 by Sarah Zucker (Manifold)
heart + craft #13262 by Snowfro + Jordan Lyall (Prohibition Art)
heart + craft #13260 by Snowfro + Jordan Lyall (Prohibition Art)
MOCA Fundraiser 2023 by MOCA (and 713 artists) (Manifold)
8 Protocols & Platforms on which to share Your Art 1 by Obxium (Mirror)
Spaghetti Bones #320 by Joshua Bagley (Art Blocks)
Ceremony #2/20 by Griff (Nifty Gateway)
Where All Things Happen #17/23 by kolahon (Nifty Gateway)
purgatory. #7/19 by Dead Seagull (Nifty Gateway)
banguh #22/25 by Desultor (Nifty Gateway)
Ocean View by fatih öztürk (Exchange.Art)
In the context of collecting pruning can mean two things: selling work in your collection or curating it. August pruning was all about the latter.
I had been planning on it for awhile, but I finally consolidated most of the work I consider most precious in my multi-sig Safe. This entailed sending works from multiple hot wallets + NG to a single account.
After that I updated the OS profile associated with it. I set my pfp and background (all Matt Kane of course) and most importantly I set up my featured lists.
OS allows you to set 10 distinct featured lists. I made the decision to break each featured section out by artist starting with Sarah Zucker and followed by Max Osiris, Panter Xhita, XCOPY, CryptoCubes & Creators, Bryan Brinkman, Skygolpe, Giant Swan, Matt Kane, and the complete LACMA collection.
I think the results look great and added it to most of my public social profiles.
