Complete Conviction

'hello admin dm me' by XCOPY sells for 62.5 ETH ($167,579 USD) to ConvictionSZN from bobbybouchervault.

The edition of 20 last saw a sale in September, 2024 for 45 WETH ($121,297 USD) to Work-In-Progress.

This specific edition was originally minted to ModeratsArt in December, 2019 for 0.16 ETH or $23 USD at the time. Its description: "hello admin I have a very interesting marketing proposal. please dm me".

Via Conviction:
"I finally did it...

Those who have been following my small journey know that this was the very first piece I sought after, with little to no luck until today.

I can now confidently say that I've built a collection I'm proud of, took lots of time, suffering and patience and I wouldn't have it any other way."


Generative Readership

"Every reading is its own universe."

'Ropa sucia (The Wash)' by Ana María Caballero is the artist's latest effort in pushing literary boundaries. In partnership with S/W Ediciones, the release pairs a limited edition artist book with a digital twin, minted on a Transient Labs contract.

Included are 5 + 1 AP English and 5 + 1 AP Spanish editions, with 3 sold at $3,500 each ($10,500 USD total) and another 4 in sales processing ($14,000 USD total). 3 Spanish editions remain available. 4 separate special editions are set aside for institutions.

Artwork Description:
"The pages of Ropa sucia are culled from /Cortadas, a novel-in-verse written by Caballero as an homage to Julio Cortázar’s iconic Rayuela, considered by many to be the first hypertext novel. Caballero’s manuscript contains 155 one-page chapters, in honor of Rayuela’s 155 chapters. As with Rayuela, /Cortadas can be read in infinite ways, leaning into Caballero’s idea of analog generativity, the notion that every reading is its own unrepeatable universe."

RD Report

The week in art is off to the races with a variety of sales and events.

XCOPY, Beeple, and Hobbs lead the eye catching sales, VVD takes over the Memes, and bhare is the latest to presale a thoughtfully curated collection.

A few items of interest below the headlines include Roope Rainisto's new 1/1, Ayla El-Moussa completing a 4 artwork release of her new 'Guardians' series, and MrMerge entering the Spratt-verse. KONIEC's art always makes me stop and watch (in 1/1).

Today Reported:
Sales thresholds of 5 ETH+ Collection, 0.35 ETH+ 1/1, 0.75 ETH+ 1/1/X, and 0.35 ETH+ Edition

Under Threshold...

...but interesting to me is 'BUSY' /50 (Art Blocks) by James Merrill seeing two sales for 0.566 and 0.551 WETH from the same collector (fittingly, GETMEOUT) to Miodozer.

Catch Up: The DAM Show!

Batsoupyum and I went deep on art, collecting, blockchain, and innovation, with plenty of classic stories. At 8,700 cumulative views and counting, this is now the 2nd most watched DAM Show of all-time, a tribute to Bats.

Two hours flew by. Watch it here.
