and my gut sense not 100% committed to this but I think it is right at this stage just going off to some generic name for everything else
otherwise that would have been the easy solution
because I think it is cringe
i don't like Punk6529 Museum
I think that for me personally i am fine being "punk6529"
has to belong to the network
I think the end state is that the brand "6529"
all good - i agree it is confusing
but misleading has a different connotation
if you had said confusing I would have agreed with you
and I think I have been super clear all along who owns what
because calling it misleading implies a form of bad faith
I am 'upset' about misleading
i am not triggered by the ownership. i am crystal clear about who owns each piece
i am not hung up on the name
ok happy to have this discussion with the group
for this to work, in the long-run I need to be unimportant
but now we are getting there
3 years ago nobody would have given credit to our discord for NFT stewardship
and I think I am doing a pretty good job at it
I have been trying if you all have not noticed to progressively move the brand I built for NFT stewardship and thought leadership etc from me to the network
ok, then what?
mike smith gets the glory
someone goes to see the tulip
this puts this issue to bed but I do not think it helps anything
and tomorrow I renamed the 6529 museum "the mike smith museum"
let's say my name was mike smith
but right now I do not think the memes or the network are being hurt or being misled in some way to being associated brand wise with the 6529 museum
you say it is misleading. as if the 6529 museum is getting some private benefit from being associated with the meme cards when I am pretty sure it is the opposite way. the large and iconic purchases of the museum have brought attention etc to what we are doing
i am starting to separate out branding between 6529 (network) and punk6529 (me) - you see it in the ENSes
and I will continue to do so
i know people will mint meme cards. i am asking BEYOND that what might incent people to contribute eth or NFTs to the collection
is the network better off
let's i renamed the 6529 museum to the museum of nfts
ok but right now the benefit is in favor of the network right?
and donate them
i don't understand this discussion - am I going to come to your house and force you to buy NFTs
eth, art, acquisitions
can decide themselves what they are going to donate
whoever donates anything to collection
so all of this concern about how we are going to spend the money that nobody has shown the slightest interest in donating is bizarre
is $100K me
$0K everyone else
right now the committed donations to the network colelction
knock yourself out
if you want to raise $100M dollars buy coz's collection and donate it to the network
no dude
in general on the branding
i have always been crystal clear which i can control the sale and which i also control the sale but within a 10 year time limit
if I don't find a solution to this, it is ok, it is not the end of the world, those NFTs will be sold eventually
it is preferable to me if they are all in one place but in the fund in particularly it is not just my friends there are real institutions etc
or i find a proposition that can raise mega amounts of money for the network
