at about 10% the MoMA's annual acquisition budget
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778352 2026-03-13 21:52
you realize (or perhaps do not realize) that we have been running already in our tiny little world

"you can just not grow trees"
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778340 2026-03-13 21:51
it is like "no, craiglist is not fair competitor in classified; it does not first grow trees, cut them down, turn them into paper, ship them to your down, print ink on them, put them in truck, put them on your bike, throw them on your porch to tell you yesterday's news"
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778338 2026-03-13 21:50
about we can do things the moma can't
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778336 2026-03-13 21:50
but this is exactly what i mean
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778333 2026-03-13 21:49
that "noooo, it is not fair, you can't count the aligned nodes"
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778332 2026-03-13 21:49
and you see there will be moaning and complaining from 'normal museums'

Hermitage is 3 million objects
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778314 2026-03-13 21:47
maybe someday the largest museum in the world
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778313 2026-03-13 21:46
"top decentralized museum in the world"
punk6529 maybe's dive bar Reply #778311 2026-03-13 21:46
"international scale"
Context from gpebbles #778310 2026-03-13 21:46
1. world classe security 2. alignment with national scale impact 6529 network 3. a way to sell some of collection without selling any jpegs in it while still being able to do that too
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778307 2026-03-13 21:45
it would be like renaming beeple to "daily artist"
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778306 2026-03-13 21:45
we should not burn it for something generic
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778303 2026-03-13 21:45
almost impossible to create this
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778300 2026-03-13 21:45
in terms of name recognition
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778296 2026-03-13 21:45
it has to be up there with top 5-10 words in the whole NFT space
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778291 2026-03-13 21:44
the hardest thing with brands is "can anyone reemember it"
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778287 2026-03-13 21:44
we have a distinctive brand that has the least overlap with anything I have ever seen
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778280 2026-03-13 21:43
and you are worried that 6529=memes
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778278 2026-03-13 21:43
you are here and believe in us
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778277 2026-03-13 21:43
we are building a blockchain
punk6529 maybe's dive bar Reply #778276 2026-03-13 21:43
even this discussion though is missing the point
Context from Hannes #778274 2026-03-13 21:43
just a thought, i would prefer "the network museum" over "6529 Network Museum" if you want something that is not directly tied to the memes. when i tried to onboard new artists here, i often had the same conversation: they like the community, but do not see themselves as "meme artists", so they do not release their work here. i also often hear, "oh, 6529, that meme thing still exists?
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778273 2026-03-13 21:43
you have to come with something serious, you need to do some curational work, do an application etc etc
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778270 2026-03-13 21:42
and show up in samsung NFT museum
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778269 2026-03-13 21:42
so you cannot just spam the network museum with your crap NFTs
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778267 2026-03-13 21:42
now this is the part you say "what if someone affiliates a nazi collection to the museum" -> well no, obviously the process of affiliating is smart contract based and we are going to vote on it
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778265 2026-03-13 21:41
this too me solves all the parts simultaneously
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778260 2026-03-13 21:41
The Gates and Keys Collection at the 6529 Network Museum
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778256 2026-03-13 21:41
and then the ones we fund directly
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778255 2026-03-13 21:40
but the museum is the broader entity
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778253 2026-03-13 21:40
what it points out is "this was my curational decision"
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778252 2026-03-13 21:40
it is like The Henry Kravis collection at the Whitney or whatever (I dunno if there is such a collection but it is fine)
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778250 2026-03-13 21:40
the punk 6529 collection is fine
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778248 2026-03-13 21:39
the Punk 6529 Museum is cringe
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778247 2026-03-13 21:39
and is accurate and non-cringe
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778241 2026-03-13 21:39
6529 Network Museum (the network museum, that owns whatever it owns directly) then the affiliated collections are in this style: The Punk 6529 Collection @ the 6529 Network Museum; the Batsoupyum Collection @ the 6529 Network Museum, the gpebbles collection @ the 6529 Network Museum
punk6529 maybe's dive bar #778231 2026-03-13 21:38
and if I tried to explain it without explain it nobody would understand and @[RegularDad] would yell at me, but the ideal naming in my mind is the following
