The Giant Leap into NFTs
In an audacious move that could make even your most ambitious friend blush, Metapurse, a crypto fund led by the visionary collector Metakovan, has emptied their wallet (to the tune of $2.2 million!) to snatch up every single one of Beeple’s 1/1 artworks from his landmark Everydays: The 2020 Collection. This wasn’t just a simple online bidding spree; it was a strategic offensive complete with sneaky maneuvers, failed attempts at subtlety, and some serious high stakes. Did they have a backup plan? Nope! Talk about living dangerously!
What’s in Store with the B.20 Bundle?
Mark your calendars for January 23, because that’s when the exciting B.20 bundle comes to life! This isn’t just any bundle—oh no! Picture this: all 20 unique NFT artworks, plush virtual real estate in Cryptovoxels, Decentraland, and Somnium Space, plus tailor-made VR galleries that won’t make your mom gasp at the sight of them. Metapurse is essentially turning your daydreams of owning art into a reality! Not just for the billionaire class, but for everyone brave enough to play in the crypto space.
Metapalooza: Art Meets Party
To launch this NFT extravaganza, Metapurse is throwing a virtual celebration aptly named Metapalooza. Think of it as Coachella, but with significantly less dust…and better Wi-Fi! DJ and crypto champion 3LAU will be live, serving up beats that will have both avatars and humans moving alike. It’s like a cultural buffet where everyone can feast on art and ownership without needing a fancy dress code.
Art Ownership Reimagined
What’s more? Ownership is no longer a privileged club. Twobadour, one of the masterminds behind Metapurse, has shred light on this: “Art was historically an open, communal experience. Over the years, the rules of scarcity and profit locked it up in warehouses and vaults.” His words ring true; the team aims at opening up the art experience, allowing individuals not only to admire it but also to feel part of it. Who doesn’t want to own a slice of a masterpiece?
A New Economic Philosophy
But this venture isn’t purely for digital paper-chasers. Metakovan shared that the initiative involves a $500,000 investment into creative talent beyond the artists. From writers to voxel architects, they’re all rallying together to breathe life into the metaverse. This is about building a thriving creative ecosystem that pushes beyond the old artist-collector paradigm. The world of digital art is officially turning into the hottest club on the block—and it’s open for all!
Scavenger Hunts and Future Plans
During the Metapalooza festival, participants will get to embark on a scavenger hunt across the three metaverses. Think “Where’s Waldo?” but on an epic scale, with fantastic digital treasures waiting to be unearthed!
And once the festival dust settles, the galleries will maintain their doors wide open for the public. So no need to keep staring at art alone from your couch!
Preserving the Legacy
With an impressive roster that includes iconic NFTs such as the F1 Delta Time 1-1-1 car and even 5% of the Monaco Grand Prix circuit, Metapurse isn’t just adding another feather to their cap—they’re inflating it to a peacock-like size.
As we dive deeper into the world of digital art and NFTs, one thing is clear: Metapurse is not only paving the way for new economic models but is also redefining how we perceive art ownership in the 21st century.
