Would love to hear others thoughts on this. If you’re an artist, what’s your strategy with them? If you’re a collector, how do you feel free mints will affect the value of artists other minted works? https://x.com/rdtothemoon/status/1816628410619162971?s=46&t=-Wh-eTHr_TysZEzr5OfcOQ

I had an idea that free or cheap mints should be low res (similar to a postcard or sticker instead of a print). So it's a collectible, but is not a high resolution image that could be printed. I suggested this in the tavern space that @jonathancolton mentioned below with @wanderloots.eth. I personally have not done free mints.

Ha thats an interesting take about the resolution. What about the style? Say your free mints are very similar to your higher priced 1/1s?

It's common practice for artists to sell originals (in the case of paintings), different size prints for various prices and also a postcard or greeting card of the same image, so that many people who can afford different prices can enjoy the art. But with digital, it's trickier. it doesn't bother me personally, if the style is the same. But we need big collectors to weigh in on this.

I personally don't see that as a problem at all, especially if you mitigate with something like a low-res post token. Someone like Zora is aiming for phone minting. So give those tokens phone resolution and save the high res for 1/1s, that could be displayed on a tv or a print
