    the fact that i heard of this from "investors" and "trendsetters" and not artists themselves tells me everything about this market. No artist I know advocated for this at any point before now, so fuck everything about this.

      the blender guru guy made a case for it being "really cool" and how its really not that different from owning like the mona lisa since popular art is already out and you could theoretically print it off and make your own print of it anyway.

        But no one’s talking about the art pieces. There’s no desire to talk about the art itself.

        The mona lisa is a famous work. These bit coin pieces are just bullshit pieces.

          yea i agree, that was just his take on it. I rolled my eyes of course.

          but yeah like everything i've seen has been like "someone spent 20k on a default cube" and shit, nothing about how good or interesting the art pieces are.
