Undecided if I'll hit publish. Represents my current thinking on Zora without going into the heady attention market stuff. Also I'm referencing Zora here but its from conversations with many of the platforms.

Few things:

1. Real founders don't launch their tokens on pump fun why would real artists want to denominate their work in tokens? I agree liquidity can be more sustainable but seems like the wrong target market

2. I keep hearing that artists are making more money on Zora now than ever yet haven't met a single artists who has experienced this to be the case

3. Artists don't rely on hype cycles, they just make work people like. Zora is reliant on the hype cycles for growth. To say this is to benefit artists, rather than Zora is silly

4. Collector mindset is very real in both traditional spaces and modern ones, if the TAM isn't big enough for Zora I understand the need to iterate but why you would you also sunset a platform people still want to use and build on top of today?

It feels better to me to have one piece fractionalized than 1000 copies. NFT mentality was very skeumorohic and we landed on selling prints.

I am totally on board with this statement
