Hey Guys,

Hey guys,

I haven’t seen it talked about here, but maybe some of you are aware of the crypto art / NFT discussion that’s been around lately. I’m strongly against it and decided to share few articles and threads you might want to read:

The problem of CryptoArt by Joanie Lemercier (I don’t agree with all the points, but it’s worth a read)

HERE IS THE ARTICLE YOU CAN SEND TO PEOPLE WHEN THEY SAY “BUT THE ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES WITH CRYPTOART WILL BE SOLVED SOON, RIGHT?” by Everest Pipkin (it explains the whole thing pretty well!)

A few threads by Jackie, Artyom, Nathan, isyourguy.

Long story short: the whole ordeal is dreadful and it’s getting even more depressing now that Big Names (and long-loved illustrators) are jumping on the bandwagon. I lack the energy to voice my own thoughts at this point, but I wholeheartedly agree with witnesstheabsurd’s take on this.

If you considered to do this shit… please don’t.
