This isn’t meant to provoke nor be a shitpost, I’m curious why I see a lot of artist friends minting on Tezos?

I currently have 5 different wallets with NFTs, my collection is fragmented and hard to display - It’s hard to justify getting a wallet and starting a collection on a chain I’m not confident will be around in 5-10 years

My feeling is that Tezos was a more artist friendly chain years back and probably still has an affluent artist community

Would love to hear from artists and fellow collectors, I truly just want to see artist’s be treated fairly and succeed

tezos moved early on the lower carbon impact narrative when PoW electricity use was a slur, so a lot of the bluesky type of user (esp artists) migrated there. they also had HEN and cto'd basically, forming stronger community bonds and loyalty. the rest is inertia

Kind of forgot it was considered the “cleaner” chain. Native PoS was always interesting, feels like Tezos had their lunch devoured by Ethereum

Even with reservations about the chain have seen a ton of cool art. All of this is a gamble, why not collect great art
