aether has already earned more from its mint than the commission cost

nice. 

now @aethernet can do it again, and perhaps spend more on a more sophisticated creator for a more substantial work. 

think of it as the onchain Mr Beast strategy

maybe the next piece is a video of some kind.

Another idea is you commission @jack for one of his iconic vv illustrations comparing artists to agents

To be clear @jack seems to have already completed the collab. Maybe instead of offering a buy out you should offer a split. 

The range of mint splits can vary widely so it’s not uncommon to ask the artist what they feel is good. 

It’s also important to have an understanding of the current community norms and industry norms for art commission.

Higher thinking demands we always protect creativity and creators by being fair and candid.
