Base

on L1, it costs $10s to $100s to create onchain art 

on @base, it costs $0.01-$0.10 and will only get cheaper

the number, quality, and impact of onchain creatives will grow exponentially — the last few weeks of creativity are just the tip of the iceberg

I love base to be able to give prepaid gas mints back to fans.  So amazing for that.  I couldn’t believe the click to mint frames with no wallet interaction

Can mint 1000 nfts for less than one on eth.

powerful promised you're making to creators globally

Thanks to all of this, for all creators, there are no longer any barriers to creation. Let's let our imagination overflow on Base.

Many thousands in the case of certain onchain generative projects.

we are dropping a generative porject on @base this week and the up front costs have been negligible compared to anything that we have done before

THIS! There was never a chance of onboarding the next 1 billion users onchain without sub $.01 fees. We are just getting started.

I tend to agree

Just minted my first base piece on zora, lovin it thus far! Eth editions with the gas fees were just insanity!

Base nfts have gotten me good. Baseblocks, degens, basedpunks, and more.

Artist - prev: LEGO, Adidas, AWS, Bankless. 
Working on /hypercosplay /// check /mintamon

Likewise. Only challenge is to convince my collectors to start converting. Instead of bridging.

It's the first time I use base to airdrop an art piece to my 600+ collectors and it was lower than $2 USD, that was insane! Idk if I will be back to L1 tbh.

Perhaps an open dialogue should be opened up between jesse, base and the on chain art community on how we can ideate on how to rebrand the term on chain for either sides

The term "onchain" in Jesse's tweet feels at worst intentionally misleading and at best avoidant of the long history of what we've considered on-chain art.

Since long before Base, an artwork was only considered "on-chain" if it was stored fully on the blockchain with no dependencies. We use the term "minted" otherwise

@diid can you explain how statements like this do a disservice to truely on chain art

rock agrees, it never been easier to be onchain and create on chain

Storing art on centralized servers doesn't make sth on-chain, you know.

hard to blv it won’t become the chain for art, just need a solid established marketplace

based.
