Cryptoart made people believe that anybody could be ‘the next Picasso, Dali or Banksy’ just because random guys with a lot of money bought random things by random big amounts, and of course not based on artistic value, but as a blind attempt of ‘creating artists’ to later, benefit from them… But sorry, nobody here is the next Picasso, Dali or Banksy, and we all can see and confirm, day by day, that these random guys with a lot of money have left, these supposed ‘grails’ got rusted in a couple of years, platforms who promised ‘the next step of art’ have vanished and all these illusory and fake narratives (never created by artists, but by self proclaimed curators, part of companies), are slowly losing sense. Go out of this echo chamber, of this jail, talk with people and realize almost nobody know what we do here, who we are and where things are going nor where they come from. Nobody wants to be part of a ‘culture’ where everything is centralized, tied and orchestrated around the same actors over and over again, because people dont see a chance, not even to develop and grow, but also in many cases, to even start. In a jail, as in a sect,you can move, yes, but only inside the limits drawn by those who dictate the ‘rules’. What was supposed to be a movement to empower and to allow independent artists do their job, has turned into a machine that is using them to kill them. The walls of Cryptoart must fall.

Artist fail when, instead of rising above the system through their talent, they lower their talent to the level of that system.

Developing your own judgment and creative process is almost a countercultural act, because the system is designed for you to consume representations, not the original work, and to validate it by liking or checking views. This way, we lose any capacity for analysis and independent judgment, because true taste isn't passive; it's the result of exposure to original works, of an inner movement, of studying the great masters, of understanding why something works beyond its popularity. Taste is about pursuing your curiosity, making mistakes, and trying to understand why.
If you only expose yourself to what's trending, what's mainstream, what's fleeting, your taste will be defined by it, not by what you decide.
 If your taste and work are defined by likes, views, and trends, it's not your taste; it's imposed taste, and little by little, it manipulates, undermines, and destroys your potential for genuine voice.
