Send us a textEver wondered what happens when legal expertise meets digital art collecting? Artie Handz, head of marketing at Verse and founder of Artie Gallery, takes us on a journey through his fascinating transition from courtroom to crypto art.The spark ignited during Christmas 2020 when an article about NBA Top Shot landed in Artie's inbox. Having previously written about asset digitization in his MBA program years earlier, he felt an immediate connection to the concept. "I was all in," Artie explains, describing his transition from childhood sports card collector to owning thousands of NFTs, including prestigious pieces like his CryptoPunk purchased just before the 2021 price surge.What makes Web3 special for Artie is the elimination of traditional barriers between artists and collectors. Unlike the walled-off gallery system, digital art enables direct connections with creators worldwide. "You get to see it being built, made, painted, created, coded," he shares. "You're like a proud parent sometimes when it releases." This democratization represents a fundamental shift in how art is experienced and valued.Looking toward the future, Artie predicts we'll eventually stop using qualifiers like "digital art" or "AI art" – everything will simply be "art" again. He anticipates innovation from unexpected sources, perhaps from "some 17-year-old kid" who will introduce something revolutionary that changes the entire landscape. However, challenges remain, including questions about mass adoption, market volatility, and the long-term accessibility of blockchain-based art.Beyond his digital pursuits, Artie revealed surprising personal dimensions – he's both a private pilot and a fifth-generation cattle rancher with a 37,000-acre family ranch in Wyoming. Now focused on his role at Verse and his personal gallery, he's preparing to launch "The Book of Hope," a basketball-themed collection that bridges his love of sports with meaningful artistic expression.Follow Artie's journey as he continues breaking new ground in the evolving world of digital art collecting and curation. Whether you're a seasoned collector or crypto-curious, his insights offer valuable perspective on navigating this rapidly changing creative frontier.https://x.com/punk7635Support the show
Bitcoin has dominated headlines, sparked political debates, and divided opinions. Through all the noise, one fact remains: it's been one of the best-performing asset classes of the past decade—but for many, the real significance of this technology is still just starting to sink in. In this episode of Object Subject Form, Simon sits down with Valko, friend, fellow CryptoPunk, and newly appointed Chief of Staff at World Liberty Financial—a decentralized finance platform launched in 2024 to simplify access to digital assets and crypto-backed financial tools. Known for his unwavering conviction in blockchain technology, Valko has gone all in on crypto—an investment stance most financial advisors would call extreme. But what drives this level of conviction? And what lessons can be drawn from it as Bitcoin continues to outperform nearly every traditional asset class over the past decade? Together, they break down the fundamental reasons why Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies matter, why these technologies remain central to conversations about financial sovereignty and technological evolution, and how they may play a pivotal role in shaping the next decade of global economics. Whether listeners are crypto-curious or already deep in the space, this conversation offers perspective on why it's no longer a question if they should pay attention.

It's nice to wake up to a green lock screen this morning as we see both crypto and crypto-related stocks bounce back from the recent dip. Nevertheless, the latest data from Santiment shows that whales' transactions are down significantly since Bitcoin's last all-time high in March as the market battles the general state of malaise. Elsewhere, we see yet another crypto exchange hack, this time with the Indonesian exchange Indodax, which went offline after $22 million was stolen from its hot wallets. Former Alameda Research CEO Caroline Ellison asks for time served and thus a non-custodial sentence, citing her cooperation with the US government as justification for the leniency. And finally, one trader makes use of a mechanism that allows them to acquire a $1.5 million CryptoPunk for just $23,000.Further reading:Bitcoin whale transactions see ‘noticeable' drop since March price peakCrypto stocks recover from dip as polls say Harris won debate against TrumpIndonesian crypto exchange Indodax goes offline after suspected $22M hackCaroline Ellison asks for time served, citing cooperation with US gov'tTrader's acquisition of $1.5M CryptoPunk for $23K raises eyebrowsRise'n'Crypto is brought to you by Cointelegraph and is hosted and produced by Robert Baggs.

Het failliete cryptoleenplatform Celsius eist miljoenen terug van het Nederlandse handelshuis Coinmerce. Dat gaat volgens een zogeheten 'clawback-procedure'. Een fenomeen dat wij niet kennen in Europa, maar dat in de VS regelmatig bij faillisementen wordt ingezet. Toch is het een aparte situatie, want Celsius eist inmiddels zo'n 20 miljoen van het Nederlandse bedrijf, maar zwakte dat met schikkingen al af tot minder dan 10% van dat bedrag. In de komende vier tot acht maanden zal er meer duidelijkheid zijn over deze zaak, waar ook Nederlandse particulieren slachtoffer van zijn. Daar hadden we uitgebreid aandacht voor in Cryptocast 337. Ondertussen gaat El Salvador zijn ambtenaren een bitcoinlespakket aanbieden. In totaal moeten 80.000 overheidsfunctionarissen les krijgen in Bitcoin. De cursus moet ambtenaren wegwijs maken in het juridische framework rond Bitcoin en het overheidsbeleid om de digitale munt. Daarmee wil El Salvador Bitcoinland nummer één worden en blijven. Het lespakket staat niet op zichzelf, want ook honderden basisscholen in het land krijgen jonge kinderen al les over Bitcoin. En Cointelegraph becijferde de huidige waarde van een aantal populaire NFT-collecties. Het is geen fraai verhaal. De duurste Cryptopunk halveerde ongeveer in waarde. De duurste Bored Ape verloor nog meer. Het zegt veel over de hype rond NFT's. Die is echt gaan liggen. Van de ruim 73.000 collecties zijn er 69.000 waardeloos geworden. Deze week in de Cryptocast Game-expert Steven Saunders is te gast om te praten over de zin en onzin van cryptogames. De koppeling tussen games en blockchain werd in het verleden als veelbelovend gezien, maar kwam nooit echt van de grond. Het grootste succesverhaal, Axie Infinity, ging ten onder aan een Noord-Koreaanse hack. Nu roeren grote gamebedrijven als Ubisoft en Square Enix zich steeds meer. De vraag is wat daar uit gaat komen. Co-host is Wouter Hoes. Met Daniël Mol bespreken we elke week de toestand van de crypto.

Bitcoin's price behavior is “unusual,” according to recent data on open interest, which is rising despite the price falling. Furthermore, institutions have not rushed in to buy the dip this time, as they did earlier in August, so we could see BTC fall further unless weekend volatility wants to throw a spanner in the works once again. Elsewhere, EigenLayer's total value locked surged 11% in a week, ZachXBT uncovers a network of North Korean devs making a fortune at crypto projects, and Sotheby's starts to auction some blue chip art NFTs.Further reading:Bitcoin has room to fall amid ‘unusual' open interest — CoinGlassInstitutions not so interested in Bitcoin at $58K, metric showsEigenLayer TVL hits $12.9B, climbs 11% in one week — IntoTheBlockZachXBT claims 21 North Korea crypto devs are making $500K a monthSotheby's to sell CryptoPunk and Beeple NFT at digital auctionSo, grab yourself a coffee, and let's get into it!Rise'n'Crypto is brought to you by Cointelegraph and is hosted and produced by Robert Baggs.

Since the release of the UNAT addition to the DMT framework about 6 weeks ago, Natcats have taken the NFT space by storm by introducing for the first time a truly unique value proposition to the digital asset space. Ev, founder of Natcats was the first to deploy an art collection that fully utilized the Unique Non-arbitrary Token framework. This enables the digital asset supply existence and the artistic characteristics of the art itself to be solely determined by block data. Up until now all NFT art collections have had arbitrary supplies, largely in the realm of a 10k supply which was a market narrative set forth by Cryptopunks in the early days of NFTs. Now, due to the introduction of DMT, non-arbitrary digital asset genesis can be produced by the Bitcoin blockchain itself by leveraging existing NAT frameworks and clever utilization of inscription native technologies such as recursion. Since the deployment Natcats has generated more than 500BTC in secondary market volume and is quickly gaining awareness among some of the biggest NFT players who are desperately seeking new innovations in the digital asset space. We break down with Ev his experience since launch and his motivations behind the creation itself, as well as future plans. Topics: First up, who is Ev and how did they get into the web3 space Next, WhAT are NatCats and what makes them different? and Finally, break down with Ev his experience since launch and his motivations behind the creation itself, as well as future plans Please like and subscribe on your favorite podcasting app!

All these tiny moves by the big players mean a lot. Now that a normie feels safe enough to invest in an ETF, more of the world will want to own Crypto. Year by year, the friction is lowered.

It's been over a year since I started talking about creating a PantyNectar NFT project. As simple as it is, I wasn't exactly sure how to go about it. There's so many different ways one can launch an NFT project. I didn't want my project to be seen as a cash-grab, so I decided the best way for me to continue to give to the community is simply by doing an airdrop. This means that the NFTs will be FREE for the recipients! The artwork will be exclusive photos of me, each personally signed and numbered. NFTs will be airdropped to ETH wallet address who register at www.PantyNectar.com/NFT.

Welcome to Chain Reaction. A show that unpacks and dives deep into the latest trends, drama and news with some of the biggest names in crypto breaking things down block by block for the crypto curious. For this week's episode, Jacquelyn interviewed Gary Vaynerchuk, better known as Gary Vee. He is the chairman of VaynerX and CEO of VaynerMedia and NFT collection VeeFriends. He's a five-time New York Times bestselling author and previously created Wine Library, one of the first e-commerce platforms for alcohol in the early 2000s. In 2009, he co-founded VaynerMedia with his younger brother AJ and fast forward today the company services clients like PepsiCo, GE, Johnson and Johnson, Chase and others. Gary Vee is a “die hard” New York Jets fan (and wants to buy the team one day), as well as an investor in a handful of major companies like Twitter, Venmo and Facebook – which we talk about in the episode. We dove into a handful of topics surrounding the NFT ecosystem, how Gary Vee got into the space and gained traction for his collection and where he sees the sector going long term. We also talked about: VeeFriends origin storyImportance of intellectual property Mainstream adoptionWhat NFT collections are getting wrong Advice for NFT projects Chain Reaction comes out every other Thursday at 12:00 p.m. ET, so be sure to subscribe to us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or your favorite pod platform to keep up with the action.
Not much to write home regarding traditional markets, equities are basically unchanged. Interest rates are rallying with the news of the bank fiasco. Today the FOMC will conclude with the expectation of a 25 bps hike and the press meeting set to happen at 1:30pm EST. We will see if there is commentary around the banking situation, but things are still wobbly.Crypto is still doing ok, with BTC and ETH staying in the same range it has been for a while. The alts aren't doing well with $APE down in the $3 price range. BTC dominance is up with all of the banking headlines; Mando imagines some volatility on the back of the FOMC commentary.NFTs & CryptoIt feels like a reverse of the BLUR impact, Azuki is number 1. The floor is around 16-17 ETH but both Miladys and Cryptopunk's floor has dropped off a bit. BLUR volume has dominated the markets with the new loan dynamic offered by BLEND. Stories are all over the timeline of people taking loans on assets for "deals" and betting long using BLEND for wins.Lebron James wore some @RTFKT sneakers on his way to the stadium yesterday during the NBA playoffs for game 1 of the Lakers vs Warriors series, and they took the win in Golden State's house. LFG!The NFT landscape is rough for people looking to buy into some of their favorite projects; floors are low for many of what has been considered the top projects, but the market manipulation is still very present and the risk to entry is very high from an investment standpoint. It is tough to be a small-time or even average participant in this environment.Since the Ethereum merge event we have burned over 142k ETH, maintaining a deflationary status. Thinking about ETH over the long term, it is a really aggressive metric. Mando spoke about the potential of having to change the dynamic of the burn if the bull returns, this type of action could make our favorite chain too expensive to use and drive everyone to L2s.Ordinals have been making waves and BRC-20 is in the headlines. Bitcoiners have basically built the infrastructure to have $hitcoins on Bitcoin! The maxi narrative is there is no longer any need for any chain other than Bitcoin. ggH3NSYWe were joined by @boillotlaurent the CEO of @Hennessy to talk about everything @H3nsy. He has been with LVMH for 22 years! Joined Hennessy and has been immersed in the cognac brand and the community around it before embarking on this web3 journey along with @BarichDanielle.Hennessy came into web3 via intuition and genuine curiosity; it started as an experiment, making connections in the space and even a DAO experience. Laurent found that there is culture present in web3 and understood the massive value of getting involved in this culture and building a community as early as possible.When was the last time you did something for the first time? @BoillotLaurent urges you to answer this question via action and pursue innovation!GM!

Its been a soft start in traditional markets with Nasdaq and S&P both down around 0.2%. Earnings report came in yesterday with headlines focused on Tesla reporting a 20% drop in net income and earnings from last year. Leveraged positions in crypto are getting liquidated, BTC down to $28k and ETH is hanging out around mid $1900's. It seems like the greed and euphoria was a bit high these past few days and this should be a good reminder that things are never up only.@rektmando sees this as a period of consolidation and speculates that we will be bouncing around the $30k & $2k range for both of the respective coins.Both the punks and apes are below 50 eth without any signs of recovery until the BLUR rewards farming ceases. Miladys up to around 2.5 eth floor but overall collections are bleeding out. The timeline is full of the $hitcoins and all of their splendor. $PEPE continues to be the talk with a slew of others joining in the whirlwindCryptopunks floor did not move during all of the crypto crisis, the black swan events AND, ETH moving violently across a tall range. Now we are seeing it slip and it all seems due to the effects of the BLUR rewards farming. The reward system creates a constant downtrend pressure by offering incentives for less than desirable trading behaviors.@punk9059 discussed the ratio of new participants vs the farmers in the Vortex of BLUR rewards not being healthy. The incentives are going to stay and people will keep playing the game. It is hard to see where this ends.We are currently at 8k active traders!? This is a tough stat, down from somewhere around 70k traders at the peak. However, the onboarding continues with things like Starbucks odyssey and @Sorare using blockchain to reach masses with no market trading involved.The stage imagines that the BLUR marketplace has a tough road ahead of it. The overall sentiment towards it has shifted on the timeline. There are still BLUR maxi's but the TL is negative and not supportive.Today Sothebys is opening up auctions to the "grail" collection from 3ac (RIP). Punks, Fidenza's and a ton of different desirable collectibles.@punk9059 points out that Sothebys is approaching this massive sell in a slow calculated way that will protect floor prices, the exact opposite of a clump sale scenario like we see on BLUR. They aren't dumping the 30 Fidenzas all at once because they understand collectibles and know that this would destroy the market value. They will sell things bit by bit over a longer period of time.Nakamigos announce an announcement that something is coming which led to a decent run in their floor.@johnkarp, who was made honorary Rug Radio Intern during the show, came on to talk about @The_Lost_Wallet. They are a quest based, story game project that has a Cryptopunk up for grabs out there somewhere in the lost wallet! They are also giving away a Nakamigo! Travel through different metaverses carrying out quests to get a chance at the Punk. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Buzz 1: “NFTs are not just for digital art—and their popularity is growing. Now The Economist is experimenting with an NFT, to raise money for a good cause. – One candidate for the Oxford English Dictionary's “Word of the Year” for 2021 will surely be “NFT”. Non-fungible tokens—cryptocurrency chits which represent digital images or videos—have been around since 2014, but took off in popularity in March [2021] when Christie's, a British auction house, sold an NFT of “Everydays—The First 5,000 Days”, art by Mike Winkelmann, for a cool $69m.…On October 25, The Economist will auction off the cover of our issue from September 18: Alice in Wonderland embarking on a journey into the world of decentralised finance (DeFi)—in which NFTs form part of the foundation of the digital economy.” [economist.com] The Buzz 2: “Like it or not, the music industry has embraced NFTs …In March 2021, the album heralded as the first to be released as a non-fungible token was Kings of Leon's barrel-scraping When You See Yourself—and people who bought the shiny new digital widget got their actual copies of the record as old-fashioned MP3s and vinyl records. Snoop Dogg announced his newly acquired Death Row Records, a hip-hop brand venerable enough for the Super Bowl halftime show, would become the first NFT label. [pitchfork.com] The Buzz 3: “Sotheby's offers a curated array of NFT's from Digital Art, Luxury, Collectibles, Sports and Pop Culture…In 2021, records were broken: the most expensive Bored Ape Yacht Club ever sold in October 2021 for $3.4M…the second most expensive Cryptopunk ever sold achieved $11.7M.” [sothebys.com] Within the next couple of years, some of our favorite establishments or even community groups might start to implement this technology to better interact with us. What kinds of new possibilities will be created with NFTs for both the creator and us, the consumer? We'll ask Connor Borrego, Amina Touati and James Shannon for their take on The Future of Your Digital Identity: All About The NFTs?

Stuart Levi, co-head of the Technology Transaction and Intellectual Property Group at Skadden Arps, and Marta Belcher, general counsel and Head of Policy at Protocol Labs, break down the legal issues surrounding NFTs specifically in the context of Yuga Labs' recent purchase of CryptoPunks and Meebits IP rights. Show highlights: the definitions and differences between copyrights, trademarks, and rights of publicity (name, image, likeness) how NFT projects have evolved in the past 12-18 months and what that means for the rights of NFT holders why NBA Top Shot's licensing model is the best model for famous brands entering the NFT space how the popularity of PFPs and the open-source ethos of crypto has led to confusion regarding the commercial rights of NFT holders what you are getting when you buy an NFT (hint, it's not copyright) the misconceptions surrounding Yuga Labs' acquisition of Crypto Punks and Meebits why Bored Ape Yacht Club NFT holders most likely cannot use the Bored Ape Yacht Club brand or logo what issues web3 projects face in getting NFT holders to accept terms and conditions why web3 projects should protect their trademark what a Creative Commons license is, and how it can be used in the NFT space what sort of licenses exist in the NFT space why secondary sales and transfers of NFTs pose such massive problems for copyright and trademark owners how marketplaces are handling terms and conditions what NFT projects can do to help the transfer of copyrights and trademarks Announcing The Cryptopians Book Clubs!
