Artists are definitely having a leadership moment in the crypto space. Look what Manifold just announced:

I made contact with a gallery owner in Seattle who partnered with a famous tech founder’s finance guy to launch an NFT platform. They’re moving fast but what she said about being where the art buying customers are - mostly tech people with money to buy art, who grew up digitally native - struck a chord. I don’t think traditional gallery owners get the luxury of thinking life after the pandemic means art buyers swarm their shows and walk out leaving empty walls. Art is now a digital medium, even if the art isn’t natively digital.
Manifold sounds like where we were heading without Disney’s toy blockchain in the mix.
Viva la smart contract!
