Hi @amelie 

Do you think we will have incunabula ebooks? If the answer is yes, would be because they were the first paving the way?

I think one of the first books on web3 was https://opensea.io/collection/lit-project-one

What do you think about it?

I think the timestamps in the Blockchain will be the way to classify them. It will be interesting to know how many have disappeared over the years because someone stopped pinning the ipfs file. 

We might have to create something like the internet archive to pin files that could disappear. It would be awesome if libraries started to do it themselves.

Incunabula ebooks would be EXTREMELY cool, how do you envision that working?? In many ways blockchain is like etching into metal so there’s a connection there anyway!

Yes I loved the Survive All Apocalypses release and was honored to collect a copy! Neil Strauss and Transient Labs are pioneers!! Plus I LOVE that it’s been immortalized in the LA Museum of Art
