Under the banner ‘artists should get paid,’ the flag of crypto-finance was planted in the collective imaginary a little more than a year ago: down with gatekeepers, decentralise the art world. <\/p>\n

Very soon after the sale of a digital file in .jpg format for the equivalent of 69 million dollars in .eth, the promise of getting rid of the gatekeepers and their canon fell apart. <\/p>\n

In the year following, auction houses like Christie\u2019s and Sotheby\u2019s reported over 100 million dollars in profit from NFTs, Beeple hangs printed images on blue-chip gallery walls, brick and mortar NFT museums opened their doors across the United States, and NFT marketplaces debuted booths at Art Basel Miami, marketplaces routinely collaborate now with legacy brands to launch fashion drops for the metaverse, and informal Discord groups are transforming into membership clubs and business ventures organised as a new type of business formation, decentralised autonomous organisations (DAOs), attracting the attention and seed capital of legendary venture capitalists like a16z. <\/p>\n

Often, this old world order is just \u201cthe art world\u201d, other times the \u201cweb2\u201d, or \u201cthe music industry\u201d or \u201cthe financial crisis\u201d. The list of reasons to lash out against these culprits is very long and well deserved but the system in which these entities are embedded, capitalism, is never an object of reflection. This is a slightly better capitalism according to a new type of crypto-influencers profiting from the promotion of risk management. Their advice, they stress, is not financial advice….<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
