Given the coins debate, here’s a mechanism that I think could make sense for higher effort artworks:

1- Mint artwork as a token with a bonding curve attached to it. Anyone can buy from it.  

2- Allow users to “lock” their tokens in exchange for the NFT. 

3- NFT represents the artwork as well as your position (how early you were and how much you bought).

4- Distribute trading fees to creator and lockers

This way you encourage long-term holding and community building. Price is more predictable. 

Bonus point: locked eth earns yield such that game is non zero-sum anymore. 

Would love to get good feedback on this!

Thoughts?

Exploring what’s next. Previously experimented with continuous, always liquid NFTs, and led growth at Dune Analytics. I like the ocean and summer mornings

Hey, thanks for the comments! 

The way I see it it’s mainly two:

- Creating incentives for long-term holding vs short-term trading while still allowing for price discovery and speculation. 

- Creating more sustainable and predictable markets such that more people feel like participating. 

I can see how it might feel overcomplicated and over engineered, but I’m not sure it’s that much really!

I think we are overcomplicating things. It sounds like an overengineered approach that should be easier to understand. 

What problem solves this new approach?
