Damien Hirst NFT "The Currency", by eliopp on Jul 27, 2021 11:18:19 GMT 1, Thanks, this is helpful. Especially this, from the sending/transferring link: I wonder how much panic will ensue on or after July 29th amongst people who will quite reasonably conclude their NFT has gone astray when in fact they’re using a browser extension in which it will never appear. I predict that Heni will be busy. What the.... That's insane! What's the point in having a metamask extension on your browser if it doesn't show NFTs?
Think of MetaMask as a place you store your COA. And you are free to download your NFT to any device you want to view it. Or you can connect your MetaMask to another site like lazy.com to view all your NFTs.

Damien Hirst NFT "The Currency", by flingading on Jul 27, 2021 11:39:12 GMT 1, Still on the lookout for one of these if anyone hit more than once. Realise at the this stage I'll probably have to pay a premium and also have some prints I could throw into the mix (Murmure/Chevrier/Pose etc) Discretion assured. Thanks
EDIT *SORTED

Damien Hirst NFT "The Currency", by eliopp on Jul 27, 2021 11:43:35 GMT 1, wondering how taxes work on these? I imagine selling a physical work on a forum is fine as long as it's not your everyday job. But what about NFT's as it's only crypto. You would have to sell it first as eth then exchange from eth to fiat, then to your account. Will it be considered then as just stocks for taxes (30% here ?
Depends on which country you are in. In the UK capital gains tax applies to both art and crypto.

You just edited from £4K to £6k?

I think it might be something to do with him having 3 of these
Only a guess
Probably a big investment for him

Sure, there will be loads of people who bought to sell, but I'd bet most of them will wait to see what the market does, particularly as you can't sell the physical painting for two months and you'll be able to easily track market value of the NFTs.

Sure, there will be loads of people who bought to sell, but I'd bet most of them will wait to see what the market does, particularly as you can't sell the physical painting for two months and you'll be able to easily track market value of the NFTs. Prepare to be surprised. You have around 9,000 sold to consumers. Look at ebay when a Shepard fairey print is released and you have around 10% on ebay immediately from flippers. I would expect a similar amount from the quick flip crowd that has to pay off the 2,000 on their credit card in the next 30 days and doesn't have the money to pay it until they flip it. Maybe, and I kind of hope so so that some who missed out here can get one. Just think this has a completely different sales market to prints, with a marketplace designed for trading them. Putting one on ebay for a couple of hundred quid profit would seem very naive flipping. But I guess we'll find out by the end of the week.

In two months time just watch… I was underselling with £4k. You won’t get one less than £6k…
NFTs are relatively new, this is the first one from perhaps the worlds biggest contemporary artist so it’s part of history.
Hirsts buyer base is infinitely bigger than this forum
Inflation is a fear of investors and this is a great hedge against inflation
The virtues are signed giclees. They sold about 10k of them. They are already going for 3x. These are originals and there will be less than 10k given the NFT/Physical decision
It’s a huge experiment and our decisions are part of the wider art project

Damien Hirst NFT "The Currency", by cnrdvln on Jul 27, 2021 12:55:47 GMT 1, discord chat saying to set the base at 15k upon launch and to hold firm.
that will in no way happen and people will undercut to a quick flip. just not sure what the initial race to the bottom flip will be.
I genuinely think Heni will kick the churn off and buy a few at market rate, it's in their favor overall

You are the one that is going to have to prepare to be surprised. You vastly underestimate how good this project is and just how much money NFT collectors have. Loads of these guys got in ETH early and have millions to play around with.

Damien Hirst NFT "The Currency", by grrr on Jul 27, 2021 13:36:59 GMT 1, I’m totally new to all this i wasn’t really aware what an nft was. Ive been thinking about it and I’m probably miles off but could this be seen as a currency such as Bitcoin so let’s call each nft = one DH and there will only ever be 10,000 DH’s. Then would there be a way these could be split down into fractions of currency’s so you can buy 0.5 of a DH. Which would then make the artwork just a serial number/authentication to the currency. So after time the artwork is irrelevant and it’s more about the currency itself. In this scenario (if it’s possible) then prices could go way up as people trade fractions of a DH. Also could Damien let you purchase future works from him using DH as the currency so .25 of a DH buys you the next hirst print.
Please let me know how wrong I am I know zero about bitcoins nft’s etc but I’ve been thinking about the project and I think the currency theme will run deaper than most think

yeah you've misunderstood a bit there. NFTs, by their name, cannot be split. I'd suggest watching a few informative videos on NFTs etc.
