but people should feel free to work on it
i agree that we need work on the meme cards
you think I want to exit a lost robbie to the network museum?
here we go again
Find myself forced to comment once again.
In my opinion, the addition of the "Lost Robbies" highlights yet again a broader vision of what this museum really means to the team.
The Lost Robbies collection became famous for its high-value secondary market sales. To summarize my evaluation, it is basically: "archaeological trash with artificial scarcity." It is the classic example of art that is not genuinely "network-driven," but rather manipulated by a very small elite group that has heavily invested in it. I won't dwell on this, and I don't expect you to agree with me. However, it seems to hold great value for the market.
Once again, the real issue is the conflict of interest:
baratkrimo has an active debt loan on Lost Robbies through his krymocapital.
batsopyum recently acquired a Lost Robbie from a defaulted loan.
Additionally, and importantly, all 6529 fundSZN funds hold Lost Robbies (which were purchased at high prices).
I must reiterate that I don't understand the purpose of this museum.
Unless I missed something major, its mechanics will look like this:
The few remaining collectors who still mint will keep minting just to maintain a full set (and get the related bonus). This means 50% of the funds go back to the team, and 50% go toward buying art. But what is that art for? To attract new investors? If we look at this in the simplest terms, this kind of scheme has a specific name.
The network's core issues are not being solved, such as:
-The quality of the meme cards.
-A lost identity with the latest mints.
-No new capital entering the system.
-A hyper-inflated TDH that will never attract small or mid-sized collectors.
-The extreme difficulty of building a blockchain from scratch without a large team, etc.
Every time, there is a new "hype re-launch", this time by purchasing "grails" (which is obviously exciting because these purchases are always heavily debated on X, etc.).
I have a broader interpretation of this, but I don't want to get into it right now, mostly because I would need to do more on-chain research and I currently don't have the time or energy. However, there is one important piece of information I do have: the 6529FUNDszns start expire in 2030.
The introduction of the museum is completely controlled/manipulated and should be redesigned from scratch. If we are supposed to vote on this, we should also be voting on other structural problems.
BUT
Voting means convincing the top TDH holders. Voting on potentially disruptive but positive proposals would be counterproductive for them. The game theory here is rigged. The network can still be saved, but please, @[punk6529], do not use it as exit liquidity for your team and your previous projects.
Lost Robbies adds NOTHING to the Memes network.
To the 6529 network, however, it seems to be more and more necessary...
thanks
done
good idea @[simo]
I think we can push the consensus to 69M
@[BatSoupYum] @[DarrenSRS] @[krybharat] can we look into the above pls
needs some work @[6529er] take a look
pipeline is thin
anything along the lines I say above will get instantly voted up
the work needs to happen on the outreach/submission side
this is cool, link?
gm frens! GIANT#45
congratulations!
I wanted to give a big and heartfelt thank you to everyone who saw value in and supported 1939, which was literally a life changing project for me to work on.
I am honored to have the piece voted in, and I promise I will use the lessons learned through this project to create more joy and value and decentration for the network.
I will do a write up on the upcoming free community edition and no reserve 1/1 later today or tomorrow, and they will drop around the same time as mint on Wednesday (unless I'm on a plane in which case I'll put them out tomorrow).
I am grateful from the bottom of my soul for the opportunity to develop as an artist alongside the network.
Thank you all,

wading into dangerous turf but need more art focused in main stage and more ambitious ideas
wading into dangerous turf but need more art focused in main stage and more ambitious ideas
but providing the infrastructure for them to be run more effectively
the "state" should not be in charge of running operating businesses
now we are talking
yes!!!!
After considering the topic further, I think cloud to land should primarily mean funding infrastructure, not operating businesses. Maybe this is obvioius but I needed some time to digest it.
The network can fund public goods that make everyone more capable: AI tools, identity, reputation, governance systems, education, open-source software, cultural institutions, community spaces, research, and other coordination infrastructure.
When the network buys land, it should generally be in service of those goals. Think campuses for builders and artists, event and conference spaces, educational centers, maker spaces, research facilities, community hubs, museums, or other places that strengthen culture, learning, coordination, and network density. The value comes from bringing people together, not from running a real estate empire.
The goal isn't for 6529 to own the economy. The goal is for 6529 to become the infrastructure that helps a decentralized economy emerge.
that is pretty cool
this isn't in the USA, but a neat example of potentially cheap land being used for science, imagine enabling long term science experiments by conserving land: https://www.princeton.edu/news/2017/08/22/orange-new-green-how-orange-peels-revived-costa-rican-forest
TLDR; In the mid-1990s, 1,000 truckloads of orange peels and orange pulp were purposefully unloaded onto a barren pasture in a Costa Rican national park. Today, that area is covered in lush, vine-laden forest.
Proposal: Lost Robbies
The 6529 Network Museum considers the original Lost Robbies to be within scope for the Museumâs collection.
For this purpose, âLost Robbiesâ means the original Robbie Barrat AI-generated Nude Portrait #7 frames associated with the 2018 Christieâs Art+Tech Summit and minted on SuperRare, not later derivative projects, tributes, wrappers, or works merely inspired by them.
Donations of original Lost Robbies may be accepted without further collection-specific review, subject only to the Museumâs ordinary procedures for provenance, title, authenticity, donor authority, legal compliance, rights, technical receivability, donor acceptance, and artwork-specific suitability.
Rationale
The Lost Robbies are a historically important early example of AI art, NFT art, and blockchain-native digital collecting. They sit at the intersection of several areas that are central to the Museumâs mandate: artificial intelligence, generative image-making, tokenized digital art, early SuperRare history, Christieâs engagement with blockchain art, scarcity, provenance, lost-and-found NFT archaeology, and the emergence of digital artworks as serious cultural objects.
The project is unusually museum-relevant because it is not merely an early NFT or an early AI artwork. It is both. It connects machine-learning-based image generation with early NFT infrastructure and with the traditional art worldâs first encounters with blockchain-native digital art. That combination makes the Lost Robbies important primary artifacts in the history of digital art.
The Lost Robbies also have a distinctive historical structure. The work was not issued as a conventional single image or standard edition. It was fragmented into individual frames, distributed through physical claim cards, and then partially lost, rediscovered, collected, and reconstructed through the later history of the NFT market. This gives the project significance not only as an artwork, but as a case study in tokenized provenance, digital scarcity, incomplete circulation, and the archaeology of early NFT culture.
Approving the original Lost Robbies as within scope gives the Museum a narrow and defensible category. It recognizes the importance of one of the canonical early AI/NFT art projects without automatically approving all AI art, all SuperRare works, all Robbie Barrat works, or all derivative projects.
This approval should not be read to imply that later Robbie-related derivatives, AI nude derivatives, Lost Robbie tributes, unofficial wrappers, or other AI-generated NFT projects are automatically within scope. Those may be reviewed separately through the Museumâs ordinary processes.
The Museum may accept donations of original Lost Robbies as part of its effort to preserve the early history of AI art, NFT art, blockchain-native collecting, and open metaverse culture.
and I think the only way we can help people is that way
the speed of changes is going to accelerate
i think the answer is going to have to be an AI agent led version
I think the reason that doesnât exist yet is that there are updates nearly every day and no matter what goes there, it will be outdated quickly
I have found the affordable property in Brazil that @[HugoFaz] has been going on about

@[blake69] we send you to check it out :)
we are the last standing
it is a reflection of the market
transient
more than superrare, manifold, transiet
it is more than anywhere else
so as "low" as our minting is right now
i track them
that we are approximately the leading primary NFT minting platform in the world right now
you need to keep in mind
it is not the price
but to asnwer your Q @[AshtonTekno] i think 0.06529 is the price for a long time.. there are plenty of memes on secondary for cheaper as well if some one wants to start accruing TDH.. i do not think it is the price that is keeping people who would buy an ape or a milady away from minting
good move

Don't think it is so easy as a question
Keep discussing
Gotta sleep
So the question is what would a valuable network presence look like
That can be run by groups of people if they like
For the same reason the federal government should not
I think in all seriousness the network per se should mostly not be in random operating businesses
Now we are talking! Good for your gut microbiome. Travels well!
