CryptoPunks 🇨🇦 10,000 On-Chain Print Release • Avant Arte

[jambor6]

No one has said they are worth a 100k they are worth what people are willing to pay for them 829 people bought the print for £450 quid so I would say in the current circumstances they are worth £450 pound

They will likely be worth £0 in a years time but will be the most talked about piece of art in your home.

This is actually an interesting point. This is the only print in recent memory I have seen on this forum where the subject matter is more interesting than the sale or resale price (which is almost always boring too).

For example, I would use this print as a cautionary tale to discuss the ludicrous concept of an NFT, asset bubbles, scams, and the book "Extraordinary Popular Delusions and The Madness of Crowds".

Got one so i can see remind myself of all the ETH that evaporated during that time period to buy digital pixels

The making of this print seems to be truly excellent, the care they took to fit all the characters inside without discriminating the quality, this alone is worth the purchase for me. It would be really cool to have all the Invaders together in one print like that!

Certainly strange. This is supposed to be an art forum and what you're praising is how the publishers "managed" to fit a few .jpegs on a sheet of paper?! 

In a way you can dispute that it is an artwork at all: if you will, the artworks are the NFTs. These prints are reproductions of the artworks done by a publisher. There is nothing artistic about it, no creative gesture, no genius, no talent. 



* That said, I like it, just didn't have the funds to purchase. But don't make it something that it isn't.

[nobokov]

It smells great too!

1)Printimaking is an artistic process therefore it is itself an art imo.....

2)Every print by any artist is a reproduction of another artwork so what are we talking about?

[robo]

I think these are a fun print for the wall if you like them. Like buying a good quality poster.

But anyone buying for future returns will most likely be disappointed. As others mentioned they are not signed and not by a known artist.

That said if I was buying right now (I’m not) I’d probably have bought one.

After waking up today, I felt a creative genius take hold of me: I had the brilliant idea of assembling all of Dürer's woodblock prints for his "Apocalypse" on one sheet!

You may believe it or not but this can also be considered an art form nowadays; as hanging a banana on the wall with tape

Not bad, but the bottom not lining up with the top is making me hyperventilate!

 i know what you mean, but for me the print is more a testimony to the times than an artistic masterpiece. besides, i think it's funny.

[Morfx]

Not seen those Strawberry tabs for a while... 🤣🤣

This print reminds me of uncut sports card sheets:

Yes, but the (alleged) value of the Cryptopunks derives from the fact that they are NOT physical !

This cannot be emphasized enough imo to the generally perceived artistic merit of the concept behind Cryptopunks. Doing a print series and printing 1 of 1s voids all that and shows how the company / creators behind Cryptopunk are just a bunch of lucky monkeys.

Have a framed version of this for sale…
