White or black? Love the inside of the white one - nice touch.

Dropped 45k in value but you'll get a keyring and an iPhone 4 case. YCMIU

Haha my thoughts exactly. Feel disappointed to have not got the free NFT or an umbrella but then remind myself that I sold in the 40s so not bad

Sold out of this a couple of months back at close to 40k but feel disappointed now at missing out on the key ring and umbrella!!

Had to be the umbrellas really...

It kind of looks like the underside of the umbrella has the currency works names and reverse detail on it

This cheapens the whole project. It’s all tat, but it doesn’t surprise me that half of this forum get a stiffy over it as you frame postcards, t shirts and doormats. Looking forward to the framed umbrellas.

Obviously to those who sold out/never bought in, an umbrella, cap or phone case is not exciting. But for those who still hold one or multiple Currencies and are active in the community, this is awesome.

Imagine buying £20k shares of a company and instead of dividends or capital appreciation they allowed you to apply for a branded umbrella. This is no different, it’s a terrible proposition.

The hirst pr department has seen the fuss a Banksy t shirt can create and are applying their spin!

The share analogy isn’t quite right here. The purpose of the Currency is an experiment to see what people value - it was never promised that the NFTs or even physical artworks would hold/increase value or offer any yield to holders. But even if you want to apply that analogy, GE airdrop was a dividend of sorts. Whether you bought at $2k or $50k it’s not a bad thing to have been sent. Those who seek yield/appreciation can just go and buy Shrigley prints from source and gloat when they see them flying off eBay for 2.something times purchase price. The Currency is something completely different.

Hirst is not banksy. Hirst releases about 24,500 a year. Banksy releases 500 things every 4 years.

So all your art purchases are based in investments? No passion behind your preferences all profit? Starting to really hate what this place has become. Cry baby bootleggers

True, but living in London gives you a brollie priority.

[Bendy Man]

My umbrella just arrived - thought is was the black one at first, but the white one comes with a black cover.
No paper work or anything in the box, but they did throw in a white shark keyring too, which hadn't been one of my three choices (maybe everyone gets a keyring too).

Looks decent (for a freebie).

I got the black umbrella. No keychain. My box was broken/open though, so it may have fallen out…

[cocos]

White umbrella and white shark here. Top stuff.

[chuckle]

White umbrella and keyring for me. Not quite the same as cashing in for $40k, but it is a fun journey so far - I’m sure there is more to come

[Deleted]

White umbrella and white keyring here.

When you applied you had to activate your wallet..? Metamask? Then you got confirmation that you applied (but not on email) hope this helps?

I think all that applied will get something?

Looking for one of the Heni X Damien Hirst umbrellas either colour but black preferably.

I have a spare unused Invader Harbour City umbrella if anyone fancies a trade?

So are "Art Umbrellas" a thing?

[Dice]

White umbrella and iPhone case here! Didnt realise it was for pro max though 🤦‍♂️. The umbrella is really good quality!
