Not salty… just an opinion. The same as the opinion that you don’t half come across as a complete p*ick sometimes.

I'd admit to being salty. Very salty actually. I was fully invested in this, and really wanted to get involved. I wont be able to reach secondary, so this was a chance to own a painting from an artist I've followed since the 90s. Reading some of the crap on Discord is really disheartening

pretty sure it won't show up on your metamask but through HENI or Opensea you'll be able to login and connect your wallet then you'll see your nft

I wear Yeezys and have done for years but rest assured mine is getting framed ASAP.

To be fair though, that crap is the only reason this experiment might work. I’ve still got absolutely no clue as to why someone will take a screenshot over an actual original painting ( or a varied HPM which are really what I consider these to be)

I think they will be available to see in the metamask account under the NFT's. If you are using the desktop extension then it will be there, but you can't view the image.

I have no idea, to me it's all mumbo jumbo. I'm just going by what a mod said

Strawberry and chocolate donuts are not the same value either. Should they? Depending on the demand

The NFT gives you more optionality and therefore likely more value for the first year:

1. For the first year the NFT is more liquid can be bought or sold more quickly and probably on the margin with lower transaction costs than the physical
2. The NFT can within the first year be transferred into physical at any point. This doesn’t work the other way around i.e. if you buy an actual physical for someone that is all you will ever have
3. The NFT gives you the option of Hirst adding some goodies, who knows what these are but can be distributed on-chain as the can always identify owners. Maybe the physical has some potential here for the original buyers or if there is a COA but I doubt it
4. The NFT can be held as an NFT for ever

So broadly I think within the first year there can be some price discrepancy and I think away from a crypto collapse the NFT has more fundamental value than the physical. That said the physical is awesome so there will be multiple buyers at £2k and a diminishing curve of buyers up to Xk – what is X I have no idea.

Longer term past the conversion period the correlation between physical and NFT should collapse arguably towards zero. By that I mean the markets may very well become completely unrelated and the price can diverge massively. Where they go I have no idea

Post script: the physical may and probably will give you personally way more enjoyment in the first year but I don’t think this will impact the relative market values

I’m not sure I understand what you. If you own a piece how will it get destroyed buy c**t who wear yeezys? Dr. Martens I understand.

I too thought it was a “no-brainier” to delete the NFT (not a fan of these) and keep what is for all intended purposes a Hirst original - having said that and after reading this forum and discussing with a few other’s - perhaps the NFT finacillay is the better option……but I want to hang this and it is art after all and not all about the ££££ - arghhhhhh DH is won his came of mind fucking us all with his experiment

What if you don't care about the NFT value and just want an original hirst in the collection. Thats where Im at right about now

I was in the same boat as you. But, now that I’ve read a little more into it, the capitalist pig in me wants to see how this plays out.

roll the freaking thing up an stick it in a tube with no padding, Mail it regular post and get it to me so i can go get a cheap frame to put it in.
