i think we'll see two different ways for artists to explore: - posting onchain: zora and rodeo aren't for selling art but more for social posts. sharing some art pieces or designs so the community can collect it for fun (not for financial upside) - selling on foundation/superrare/etc: back to how art nfts were valued last cycle, where artists can share a narrative/story behind the art and sell it at a fixed price or auction

i also do feel like we are thinking of zora + rodeo on a small scale (right now), imagine the user base 100x'd i do think there will be financial upside for artists, esp if you have a big audience you will have followers/collectors that want to collect every piece of yours

you can play with different mechanics there, like time-based ones..instead of the 24h on rodeo, limit it to 1h - creating scarcity out of an OE. though those OEs always attracted 'collectors,' they didn't make much sense as the art had no value or utility in the end i agree on seeing different paths and, zooming out, those 0.000025eth can have a huge impact when the user base 'goes mainstream' + there's a lot of value in how monetization can be distributed when those posts are shared or remixed

hmm interesting thoughts on the scarcity but in the end what gives art value? this is not the greatest example but i think easy to understand what i'm trying to express a lot of old-time artists became famous after death (van gogh, vermeer, etc). those artworks were of little value until they became famous or mainstream so unless you are already famous, your OEs likely will have little secondary value in a sense obv you will have some hardcore collectors that will support you and see the value in your work however if you are continuously posting and creating a fan base, these OEs technically over time should gain value on secondary as more and more people see your work and if you hit mainstream, your old work is likely to get bid and bought the nft boom with 1/1s on foundation, etc was very interesting, we had the opposite of what i'm saying, essentially non-famous artists getting high bids for their work price is subjective of course but i think we can all agree that more fans = higher prices

saying some things here very blandly but i do think they are true overall it's a lot of rambling thoughts haha, pretty interesting to analyze tbh but i do think OEs have a big big place in the art world, we (including me) just don't realize it yet imo like @literature said in that pic, its a significant shift

yeah def we don’t know the answer yet, and experiments like OE are great to understand how digital art is valued the more reach you get, the better - maybe translating into rare pieces later on oh that’s from onchain pictures, actually related with this thread if u wanna read https://warpcast.com/tomu.eth/0x639ef60d
