JPG Digest - Issue #1

JPG Digest - Issue #1 February

February was a crazy month for Cardano NFTs, and that inspired us to create our own newsletter to cover all the events in the space (along with some cool jpg.store data 🤓).

Mints Of The Month:

• FudBuddies

The #fudbudtakeover was very real! A project born from the mind of Lewis, a talented artist that had previously worked on Death Squad, a set of 1 of 1 pieces. Nicely plays on the FUD narrative and has picked up great traction on social media.

• JAR Heads

This beautiful art collection sparked the interest of many collectors in the space. Seems like people were really eager to jump on a pure art project which proves that there is room for innovation in the space!

• Disco Solaris

The 80’s vibe is really strong with this one! Really nice color palette and a great take on the retrotopia topic. The community seems to be loving it and the volume puts a number on that appreciation!

Artist Spotlight:

• Backwards Geometry 

Backwards Geometry is an alias for Michael Wilseque, a multidisciplinary abstract artist from Brazil that has been creating and immortalizing his work on the Cardano blockchain for almost a year at this point.

His works deal with gestual and textural creation in a moment of raw emotion. Exploring colors, shapes and materials while letting art manifest itself.

Various collections, physical pieces and exciting auctions later he is still creating and has amassed a devoted collector base.

Let's talk numbers! 🔢
