Grant Yun is exploding. His ascent is feeling unstoppable. I wanted to write a short thread on why I decided to buy ‘Space in the Mid Century,’ in January, which set the record ATH price for his work at the time (10.3 eth). A thread 🧵

This is why I call us a generation of cowards. We’ve basically said: we want stuff now. Sorry kids, you’re going to have to pay for it with your future. Go fuck yourselves.

In a world increasingly bereft of taste, collecting and supporting the arts will become a last vestige of individuality.

Yup
Sometimes the art market is wrong. Attention and momentum are noise. Artistic and/or technical contributions lacking attention/momentum in the present moment are signal. Discovering these, buying, and simply waiting are the biggest edges, but often ignored bc of impatience.

You love to see it 👏👏
Thank you @Space_Sprockets for acquiring a Twin Flames 👯‍♀️👯‍♀️ We've spent a year searching for the right portrait for your collection, and today it happened at 17.17 ETH, thanks to @cl7official. @cl7official has been one of my closest collectors and patrons for years, supporting every collection I've made. He sold this portrait to our friend @Space_Sprockets, then turned around and acquired another Twin Flames from me for 11.11 ETH, the one I bought back a few weeks ago for 8.88 ETH. This is a story of friendship, patience, and conviction. The artist's conviction that whether it takes a week, a month, or years, it will happen. And the collector's conviction in their artist's dreams. Maybe we're both a little crazy and delusional, but that's what keeps the fire burning bright 🔥🔥

In the decades to come, pre-AI, human-made NFTs will be regarded as the dinosaur fossils of the digital age. Their scarcity will be almost incomprehensible. They will become the most coveted artefacts ever excavated from the ruins of the early internet, fragments of the last great human creative epoch, preserved perfectly onchain. Museums will fight wars over them. Nations will build monuments around them. Future historians will look upon early art blocks and see not a JPEG, but the last footprint of humanity before the machines began making everything.

Yep
my plans are literally measured in decades and i am more bullish on pre-AI-age art NFTs than any other asset class over the next 5-15 years opensea.io/DCinvestor

This is needed
Recent hacks across both custodians and self-custody solutions keep raising the same question: how to hold and manage your assets. The market was missing an account where you hold your own keys, with the institutional infrastructure built around them: recovery, succession, transaction policies, pre-signature screening, and a dedicated relationship manager. We built it, and we call it a Private Custody account. We believe there is no single answer for every holder, and that there should be many good ones.

Was looking at Fidenza stats today and this setup is kind of insane. 88% of holders have held for 1+ year. The median Fidenza hasn’t moved in almost 4 years. Less than 2% of the 999 supply is currently listed. Now imagine $15M rotating into Fidenza instead of the latest Zcash cash grab. Even assuming fresh supply starts hitting the market every ~10 ETH on the way up, that kind of buying pressure could realistically push the floor from ~17.5 ETH to around 100 ETH. And the best part? Most of the new buyers would be sitting in profit instead of being down 50% while holding what is arguably the most iconic generative art collection onchain
