Our Artists

NFT update! + CHAT!

Published on March 14, 2021

So about our previously announced foray into NFTs...

We're stepping back. I actually mentioned this on social media a couple of weeks ago, but obviously not everyone saw it. So why did this happen?

Simply, I had been unaware of the environmental impact of crypto. Once I learned about it, no longer felt OK with participating. So cancelled our rollout two weeks ago (shortly after the YouTube talk). Was still going to go through with the initial artist drop, though, because it had already been scheduled, and I felt a responsibility to the platform, who had worked with us in good faith. But then the artist also had misgivings, so we pulled the plug on that, too. Lots of respect for this artist, who walked away from the biggest projected payday of his career.

Despite all this, that platform just called me this past week to discuss their efforts in making what they do more green. (Not so coincidentally, other emerging platforms are addressing this by using Proof of Stake-based currencies.) This is obviously due to demand by creatives. What's interesting is the group that he said is far and away the most concerned: Comic book artists.

We may reengage later, but for now, we're on the sidelines. Will keep following, regardless.

Feel like talking about it? Or anything else related to our favorite hobby? Then join me for our latest chat!:
