Hey, artists of #Tezcon - many of you asked for documentation of your works at the event itself so I took a feed of the display prior to the event with the full gallery in display, here. youtu.be/17FKHt2a4tc https://objkt.com/curations/objkt/tezcon-2025-31225d20?offset=10 #Tezos

Chocolate covered Tezcon fortune cookies! Pretty tasty, too. 😋 Kenyon Hall, June 28th starting at 4pm! This Saturday! #Tezos

We got almost 100 submissions for Tezcon this year - a mix of artists, sponsors, tech people and just random people who see themselves as "forward looking". The Tezos community is relatively small compared to other ecosystems but they do show up when needed. That makes all the difference in the world, really. 🔥

It's noon over here in Seattle - I would highly recommend people submit their entries by tonight since we have our meeting Friday morning and that will likely be the cut-off point. We've gotten over 60-70 submissions so far in total - thanks for the interest! The projectors are gonna be super fun this year. 😁

#Tezcon is almost here - a few weeks away from June 28th! Reminder that the open-calls for art/community submissions are due on the 20th, where we have our weekly meeting. Artist Form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdnxec8CKR9Q1LD3yHUQpDMaLD1GAwgv6_-7NtXlp7cB3xajg/viewform?usp=dialog Sponsor/Community Form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScW4GRgOL36iBR3f9rm2wrpbzyJn76HvayTenW9I_4pUwLPGQ/viewform i.e. - it's probably best to submit by the 19th if you can spare the time. It's our last meeting before the actual event so things are gonna get hectic! #Tezos #Art #Music #Seattle #NFTs #Crypto

Hey folks - after a few bug fixes, the beta version of @teiacommunity's copyright registration system is now up and running. We'll probably run it for a month or two before merging it to the main site but the preview is up and running! https://preview.teia.art/copyright Note that this is running on mainnet already so everything you do here will be permanently on-chain. Use with caution! Public listings is a feature we're working on at https://teia.cafe but technically anyone can do it now, too. The goal is to create a marketplace of IP that is neutral. The FAQ has also been updated to include the new process for v2 as well. 3-Steps: Mint/Register/Sell https://preview.teia.art/faq

@malicioussheep is leading the way for pride month again this year with the @teiacommunity! Just mint your works with the hashtag #tezospride to be automatically entered into a category of its own on the #Tezos blockchain. 🌈

Some of the parents you meet in Tezos can be pretty intense - "These are the kinds of people I want my kids to be around!" Whoa there, nobody agreed to that kind of thing, mate. 😂 I guess trust and diligence is in short supply these days. And XTZ is probably the only place online right now where that is actually demonstrably true - people are actually using the blockchain as intended: transparency and accountability. The ones that are faking it are exactly the types of people you don't want to be around anyway. It's perfectly fine for our bubble to get smaller (at least for now) imo.

The planning for Tezcon is going smoothly so far and everything seems to be in place - so smooth that it's making me a little anxious - what could possibly go wrong? There's no way that things will happen without complications, right? 😂

Uploaded the how-to guide for TEIA's new copyright/licensing registration feature - we're making the last few changes and should be out to the public, soon. Had a few TEIA members review it so it should give a good idea of how it's going to work in practice once it's up. Once out, it will available for anyone to use! 🙂 And of course, the guide itself is minted as an NFT - as it should be! 😂 https://teia.art/objkt/869379/

We're doing a showcase of slides of various things going on in the Tezos ecosystem at Tezcon this year and thought having a few slides about individual bakeries might be cool to have if they were interested. The slide can be basically whatever you want it to be but it'll be in rotation along with other projects and orgs on XTZ. The form is here if interested - the event is June 28th next month in Seattle, Washington. 🙂 https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScW4GRgOL36iBR3f9rm2wrpbzyJn76HvayTenW9I_4pUwLPGQ/viewform

Contrary to popular belief, I am not an alien from another planet. This week I'll be using what's left of my product management brain cells to try to explain this whole NFT utility thing to people in...plain English. If I run out of cells, I apologize in advance. 😂

We're finalizing the push for the copyright registration v2 this week and hoping that it'll get merged soon - at least before Tezcon in late June. We're going to be switching over our focus onto building teia.cafe's radio and marketplace afterwards. Still needs a few weeks of testing but you can experiment with it on TEIA's preview page if you want to get a head start. 🙂 - This will add a new menu item to the top right menu called "copyright" where you can register existing works with licensing declarations (https://preview.teia.art/copyright)

I moved my funds out of Bitcoin and Ethereum at this point in order to invest in the next generation of crypto (like Tezos) but there's a chance those assets could do well just because of their name recognition and the fact that it's "not fiat". Either way, it'd be wise to consider reallocating your portfolio sooner than later because the writing is already on the wall. You don't want to be with the panic crowd when it's already too late. 📉 https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/05/45598674/robert-kiyosaki-says-us-heading-for-greater-depression-but-you-can-become-very-rich-person-in-this-crisis-if-you-do-this

Tezos folks are just normal people looking for better ways to do things. But I guess what makes them "weird" is that they're willing to take a chance on something genuinely new. That may be a pretty rare thing these days when most people are trying to turn back the clock. ⏳️
