What are a few of your favorite forms of utility that accompany the art?

Access to the artist and the community that loves the art cannot be underestimated as a huge value add that is typically missing in tradart. It’s like access to a fan club (not necessarily token-gated, but it feels nice to own). It’s an encouraging, supportive community too. Future airdrops is also a nice value.

Allowlists can obviously take on different forms -- I never really liked the premints and reserves and passes -- partially because there's so much speculation and bots. For the cheap stuff, sure. But for the more expensive stuff, I at least have/had the luxury to pay a premium without feeling the need to toss the dice.

With that much investing, I am guessing allow lists were also important? Do any use internal economy that gives you more access to the art/artist?
