Who is Rafael Lima and why Hic Et Nunc was created.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Unaudited what? Who cares about smart contracts.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>3.

The last straw that lifts the lid: the hacker accident, developer dissent, and community discontent. (coming soon)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>5.

I mean, literally ANYTHING! All the artwork files are saved o the publicly accessible IPFS and all the profile information is managed by 3rd sources or saved straight on the blockchain. Have you ever wondered how cool is it that Hic Et Nunc never shows that annoying pop-up message about accepting cookies?! Yep\u2026 That\u2019s by design. Nothing of yours is being recorded or saved.

What does that mean? That means that you\u2019re interacting with an unaudited contract. Or in HEN\u2019s case, contracts in plural as Rafael divided the whole functionality of Hic Et Nunc in 7 smart contracts.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Where does the trust in Rafael Lima\u2019s code come from? I suppose that in HEN\u2019s case it organically grew from artists that started using the platform and advocating for it. Mario Klingemann being the spark that brought more high profile artists that in turn inspired trust in many smaller artists. Collectors soon followed this migration to HEN also without questioning how experimental the smart contract codes really were.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Always remember that the website is merely an interface for the smart contracts. Differently from other NFT platforms HEN doesn\u2019t keep any of your information on a private database and as such you always have to sync your Tezos wallet so that it can pull all the information from the blockchain. Even if the website ceases to exist Hic Et Nunc will live as long as Tezos blockchain is running&#8230;.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>*Well, what is &#8220;Hic et Nunc&#8221;? \u00a0Here&#8217;s a recently written guide. \u00a0It&#8217;s not complete. \u00a0I wouldn&#8217;t be surprised if it&#8217;s never complete. *However, it&#8217;s the best one I&#8217;ve seen to date. &nbsp; https:\/\/matheussiq8.medium.com\/hic-et-nunc-the-story-facts-suppositions-and-ideas-june-2021-19927f9106ad &nbsp; Hic Et Nunc \u2014 the story, facts, suppositions and ideas (June 2021) Matheus Siqueira 1 day ago\u00b7 12 min read If [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-346","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorised"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.0 -
