Making AI Art With Zora 🎨
The crossroads of AI x NFTs is an area I’m really excited about, so it’s cool to see that Zora just launched AI support in the Zora Canvas NFT builder. Underpinned by text-to-image Stability Diffusion tech, this new functionality lets creators make visual layers via prompts that can be remixed in the Canvas interface. Here’s an example I created: https://opensea.io/assets/0xe3BB341b3FDE622e7aED371F93Bd511da6Ed6Ade/1 There’s even an in-built splits system here, so that a model’s host and the m...

Memecoins With Memes 😄
This week, meme.market caught my attention. Created by the minds behind mint.fun, this new platform pairs memecoins directly with picture memes via ERC-1155 NFTs.The idea here, of course, is to bridge the gap between meme-themed tokens and actual memes. Deployed on the Base L2, the platform acts as a marketplace and creator hub where people can buy and sell memecoins + memes along bonding curves and create and earn from new memes in existing markets. My opinion? Keep an eye out here, as meme....

This concept largely informs...

Creativity Pays in NFTs 💎
✨ This post originally appeared in Metaversal on Bankless ✨There are many reasons to be creative around NFTs, like exploring new artistic ideas, experimenting with new tools, and reaching new audiences. Yet this space also has a way of rewarding creativity and curiosity.
