It’s so great to see here fam
Time is rare,so LET’S FUCKING GO!!
let’s take a review on the global crypto market:
This week we experienced a downward in the whole market after SEC’s lawsuits against the Coinbase and Binance but BTC kept the resistance at 25k, but altcoins fell down with no comeback so far, which made the BTC dominance pump. Now 49.20% of the whole market cap belongs to Bitcoin.
now let’s take a look at our 4 favourite charts;
The Total Crypto Market Cap fell 7.51% (~$83.09B)
BTC/USDT moved from $27115 to $25925 (-4.39%)
ETH/USDT moved from $1889 to $1753 (-7.26%)
And the TVL in DeFi fell 16.86% (~$7.272B)
Memes:
This week in the Memes ecosystem as always we had 3 amazing artworks and the first 6529er piece in season 3 which was a surprise until the last hours of the mint at Friday.
Froday, 6/9/2023, was the memes’ first anniversary. 1 year full of fun, releasing cool artworks and building a great community, all started a year ago by this thread. 6529 started the memes collection to spread the most important messages from web3.0 to the mainstream and we can say they were successful.
Now their ecosystem has developed the best delegation mechanism in the space so far, they have built the seize.io for a better experience of enjoying cc0 artworks, the meme lab contract for artist to do experimental project which is encouraging artists to cross the lines and risk with no regrets.
Also here are some community-built projects in the memes’ permissionless ecosystem;
6529complaints; which follows the same way of the memes but with targeting complain-able subjects for their cards
The means; to explain the memes by using the 6529 quotes!
Memes outside; which create fantastic combinations from street arts/views + meme cards.
Meme maxis newsletter; run by pandelic to cover every corner of the memes ecosystem in a daily basis.
Gradientz; interviewing the meme cards artists for a better pov on them.
And many more great people building their part here, but the most important one here was the building a decentralized community around the web3.0 cultural objects and messages!!
Last Friday was the Cryptopunks 6th birthday at 6/9/2023.
Crypto punks are a 10k collection of 24×24 pixel pfps existing on the Ethereum blockchain.
They are an inseparable part of history because the Ethereum developers were inspired by them to make the erc-721 standard to cover the non-fungible tokens.
Cryptopunks were free to cliam for everyone 6 years ago, and since they had no royalties, the larva labs kept a part of supply for themselves until last year when they sold all the cryptopunks to the Yugalabs. now the floor has been standing at 40-50 for more than 2 years, which shows maybe everyone is agree about their value.
“Tyler Hobbs is a visual artist from Austin, Texas who works primarily with algorithms, plotters, and paint. His artwork focuses on computational aesthetics, how they are shaped by the biases of modern computer hardware and software, and how they relate to and interact with the natural world around us. Tyler develops and programs custom algorithms that are used to generate visual imagery. Often, these strike a balance between the cold, hard structure that computers excel at, and the messy, organic chaos we can observe in the natural world around us.”
Tyler is mostly known for his 2021 collection of 999 unique peices generated by algorithm and his own color pallet entitled “Fidenzas”.
Fidenzas are on Artblocks contract and powered by artblocks engine. Findenzas quickly became one of the most favorite projects in NFT space and then beyond that and lately we witnessed an auction for fidenza 725 at Sotheby’s which sold for $1.2m.
In past months, hobbs has started a very creative project entitled “QQL”, has developed his own engine and put it open for everyone!!
