Buy to reveal. [**Revealcam**](https://revealcam.fun/) is a new project created by [Ace](https://twitter.com/startupoppa) and [Peter Kim](https://twitter.com/pkayfire) that lets anyone post an image and pixelate it behind a token wall. Once someone buys **10M** of the token, the image is revealed. [Stalomir](https://x.com/Stalomir) is unveiling alien lore. [SHL0MS](https://x.com/SHL0MS) is expanding “   ”. What will you reveal? Part media. Part game. Fully onchain. * * * #### Brand in the Open, through the eyes of Graphix Artiste What does building a brand in the open look like? We invited 10 artists to remix the Base identity from the ground up. One of them was [GraphixArtiste](https://twitter.com/GraphixArtiste), a multidisciplinary artist who “creates art for the internet.” Graphix Artiste's process for Brand in the Open was deliberately anti-formulaic. “I let the vibes guide me. Music, aesthetics, feelings. The vision comes first. Even if it doesn’t make sense yet.” His work "incorporated every technique I know so your eye would wonder around and get lost in the details." His advice to artists? “I want creatives on Base to feel like they’re in a sandbox again. You can break rules. Make new ones.” Let’s build the future, together.
