Damien Hirst NFT "The Currency", by kfroms on Aug 15, 2021 8:42:03 GMT 1, Question for holders (or those who would have liked to have been holders!): If you had intended on exchanging your token for an original painting in a couple of months time, but at that time the prices of the tokens were, say, £25k/$35/11 ETH, would you trade in regardless or stay in the game for a while (or cash out)?
Having been allocated two, I still plan to trade in one and hang it on the wall. The other one will be sold at a certain stage.
Lets see how that goes if prices continue to increase.

Damien Hirst NFT "The Currency", by kfroms on Aug 14, 2021 16:36:14 GMT 1, What happened to make the price rocket so much today? These are now at almost double the price they were going for yesterday. The whales are buying en masse, including the 'famous' MR703 ( who also started to be active in the Discord ) Seems like the whole project gets a lot of traction at the moment.

Damien Hirst NFT "The Currency", by kfroms on Aug 13, 2021 11:29:14 GMT 1, little scam going on to be aware of, looks like someone fell for it. I've received numerous offers for me tenners all for less than 10 DAI. One sold there for 9 DAI. I imagine they are hoping the seller thinks its like ETH or that its 9,000 DAI Anyway just double check the offer The sale for 9 DAI was someone moving it from one wallet to another. I was NOT a real sale.
That said, be careful, read a lot and ask questions when entering the world of NFTs As mentioned before the Discord is great source of knowledge and support.

Damien Hirst NFT "The Currency", by kfroms on Aug 11, 2021 18:39:02 GMT 1, and yet the question remains... HODL the eth or pick up some paper with dots which some how magically transforms to a Jpeg that ultimatly you only look at t while your on the toilet. but some how has the potetiall to be worth 30 eth in a years time? decisions,decisions... I guess we are not all in the same boat after all. but that whats its all about right, the haves and have nots. In the case of DH the haves and the have yachts.

Damien Hirst NFT "The Currency", by kfroms on Aug 11, 2021 18:20:59 GMT 1, Dropping 3ETH on a Hirst is no big deal for early investors - a year ago today, ETH was at 395 Dollar, today it is 3,250 USD and yet the question remains... HODL the eth or pick up some paper with dots which some how magically transforms to a Jpeg that ultimatly you only look at t while your on the toilet. but some how has the potetiall to be worth 30 eth in a years time? decisions,decisions...

I am lucky to have two - one will go on the wall and with the proceeds of selling the other one I will finally buy that Ferrari F12 Berlinetta I want for a while. Happy days.

Damien Hirst NFT "The Currency", by kfroms on Aug 11, 2021 16:32:45 GMT 1, This... the Heni floor has risen overnight from 8750 to 9200. stupid question, these are almost 10k on heni now, is it because eth is higher and these are loosely piced off eth, is it higher just because crypto is higher, or is it a supply demand thing for these actual pieces? Theory is that the DAI linked sales on Heni are not for 'real' crypto people as it is linked to USD. They only think and trade in crypto ( and for lots of them Eth is like Monopoly money as they got in so early ) Dropping 3ETH on a Hirst is no big deal for early investors - a year ago today, ETH was at 395 Dollar, today it is 3,250 USD

Damien Hirst NFT "The Currency", by kfroms on Aug 11, 2021 16:30:11 GMT 1, well its not like he could have them making "art" from home. jeez people. I can just imagine 63 assistants with different colored markers walking around in a circle creating these, hirst in the background sitting in a chair playing music, every time he stops the music they switch from overlapping dots to spacing them out and switching direction. Genius, no? Wish I did that back in 2016!!

Damien Hirst NFT "The Currency", by kfroms on Aug 9, 2021 20:17:38 GMT 1, Does anyone know how I can do a transfer from one MetaWallet to another? My father was lucky to get chosen and wants to transfer the NFT into my wallet. I am not sure how I go about this so can anyone help/have any idea how it can be done? You cannot to the transfer directly from one MM wallet to another...not yet. I am not sure how it works if you bridge both NFTs from Palm to Eth and get rid of Palm network...and fron there you can move them to another wallet other than MM. You can also wait until they fix the transfer between MM wallets I have exactly the same situation and do exactly the same: I wait.

New Banksy?, by kfroms on Aug 9, 2021 20:15:29 GMT 1, I totally agree with you mate, I was just talking about what the meaning of the artwork could be, but think you could be right with the kid bailing out the water is on the sinking end of the boat while the posh kids are at the front end. some of my old bosses (plural) trinkets, very global warming friendly - this is just top of the iceberg. One boss flew in with her dog in tow, when quarantine stepped in, she had the little terrier flown home on the Boeing 707. All revealed in my book. Emiratis. Wonderful.
A Qatari business partner of my former employer used his private jet to fly his falcons around. One falcon per seat, sitting on a wooden stick placed over the big leather seat. Each of them with a little golden helmet over the head. I can't unsee this. Ever. Anyway, not the topic here! :-)

Damien Hirst NFT "The Currency", by kfroms on Aug 8, 2021 20:48:31 GMT 1, Sorry, not following the discord, but how you see this project going? I only have one and wanted another, to have both physical and online.... just saw prices rise to 7k. Crazy to go up so quick! How do you see long term evolution? Maybe a good entry point? Now I have to again decide about NFT or the paper... tough decision! The stats of the last three hours:
In the last 3 hours, there have been 7 sales totalling 60,331 US$, with max price of 9,482 US$, average price of 8,619 US$, median price of 8,534 US$ and min price of 8,007 US$.
There is no final answer to your question. The crypto gang is super disappointed that the prices are where they are. Analog people like me are surprised that our investment quadrupled in no time.
I guess the next milestone is when the exchange opens and the number of NFTs will go down.

Damien Hirst NFT "The Currency", by kfroms on Aug 8, 2021 17:20:28 GMT 1, Go to see his show at Newport Street Gallery. This shows you that , at his core, he is actually a great artist. Several of his series will hold an important place in art history, like him or not.
My 2cent to the Currency: I tried my luck as I always wanted a spot print and thought that getting an original for 2k USD is the best chance ever. When I got the email I thought ' perfect . swap it asap, frame it and done'
The next morning my wife told me she got an email as well and this is when I entered the rabbit hole. All of a sudden the whole thing got far more interesting as we had one token to play with. I started reading Discord, left straight away as I felt that I first need to read up on the general concept of blockchain, NFTs etc as this is nothing which interested me before. It still is a world which I am not interested in but I appreciate it. Its not about the art, its about rarity, immediate, frequent trading and price increase. Fine by me but not for me.
But at least I now know what a paper hand is.
And I can't wait for the swapping period to open and see what happens.
Overall an excellent piece of art.

Damien Hirst NFT "The Currency", by kfroms on Aug 4, 2021 16:57:35 GMT 1, I don't care about the stats but having to decide which of the two we own will be going on the wall is not easy. They are similar but also quite different. nft.heni.com/item/656nft.heni.com/item/9114Being a 'analogue' person I have to admit that I really enjoy the experience so far. But one thing is sure: Once we have one original on the wall and the other one is sold I will not venture into NFTs again. Also, the Heni Discord is a rabbit hole. A dangerous one. I like 656 far more than 9114. I hadn't realised how different they could be until I compared these two. Weird! I'd even say I don't like 9114!
Same here - 656 will go on the wall. 9114 will be either sold as NFT or as original. Lets see how that unfolds in the next 12 months.

Yes! I haven't made it to Leipzig but Duisburg is realistic as I need to go to Dusseldorf for work on a regular basis. There was a limited print of Rhein III ( numbered, edition size of 200 ), got one of those as well. Nice print, hope it will make the wall....

Hirst claims £15m in loans, by kfroms on Jul 29, 2021 16:53:38 GMT 1, Whoever moans about this has no idea of how you run a company and what personal wealth means. The biggest corporations in the world have reduced workforce and taken on loans / bail-outs. Normal, its what you do. Its a loan, you have to pay it back.

AVANT ARTE • New Release , by kfroms on Jul 27, 2021 23:08:07 GMT 1, It's more like Avant Arte has turned into an exclusive club at which time entry is virtually impossible.
Luckily I have no desire to enter that club. In the beginning they released things which I liked and managed to buy a few works, fuzz free. Their recent stuff is absolutely not my cup of tea. I find most of it childish.

Recommended Art Books, by kfroms on Jul 27, 2021 20:40:16 GMT 1, aaaaannd breathe.
Being picked to purchase a Hirst Currency made me spend far too much time picking up crypto lingo and knowledge. It’s fascinating in a way but I learned again how much of an analog person I am.
Currently abroad but a few new books seem to have arrived back home: The long awaited Kaws What Party ( the signed, white one ) and the Damien Hirst Cherry blossom book which seems to be great.
On a different note: With the Damien Hirst incoming in the near future I have a spare Frank Bowling print from the recent Countereditions drop. Unopened etc. It wont make the wall now. I got an early tier , please send me a message if of interest. I’d prefer to sell it to someone who reads this thread! :-)
Have a nice summer everyone.
