🖼️ 24 HOURS OF ART 📊 August 23, 2025... 💀 Skull Swaps and Highs At the center of a movement flurry in 'Skulls of Luci' by Sam Spratt is a new all-time USD high for the 50 artwork collection of 113 ETH | $525,000 USD. It is Tad Smith ultimately acquiring 'Sulfuric Fragments' from Punk6622, while two Skull holders and Council members pave the way, with Blondie23LMD swapping into 'Dream State' and DGMD.6529 swapping into 'Recoated'.‍ Via Sam Spratt: "Former President and CEO of Sotheby's Tad Smith, Current Member of Spooky Monkey Cult: Welcome to The Council. I want to thank Punk6622 who placed a bid on Lullabies for Isaac in October 2021. He paid around 8 dollars in gas fees that day to place the bid, and like all of the other original holders of the Skulls of Luci, he received his as a gift. It's been amazing learning from him for the last few years."‍ Via DGMD: "Recoated. As a physician, this one always stuck out to me. It looks bloody, with a wash of white coming over. My wash of white has been my amazing journey in art and crypto. What an opportunity to swap into Skull's we love and onboard another heavy hitter and collector to The Council." 🪟 Pictured: Highlights - 'Dream State' by Sam Spratt - 'Sulfuric Fragments' by Sam Spratt - 'Recoated' by Sam Spratt - 'NIGHTHAWK' by Dave 🏁 🏁 🏁, collected by Vladislav - 'island' by Joe Pease, collected by Benji via GONDI - 'Unquestionable Provenance' by VonMises with The Memes by 6529 - 'Chromie Squiggle #6192' by Erick / Snowfro / 🦩 / LAO / #️⃣ / 🔴 - 'Surface Tension' by jerad armijo, collected by batsoupyum 🌐 2025 Subscribers Read the full report here:show more

Some things I cannot get over from today’s Basel... VIP day, I’m just gonna type once and rip bc I’m eager to get these memories out: Best mic drop moment for digital artists I’ve ever seen. The exhibition looked so damn good, our energy was so high it made the other half of the fair feel vapid. Perennial Basel VIP goers walked a fair booth after booth of what is honestly repetitive “trad” art and then BOOM, they’re instantly stimulated by the masterfully organized Zero to 10 exhibition. They’re hit with the largest crowd they never expected, many of which was anchored by 50-100 crypto friends rekindling, and ready to lend their knowledge to explain the works in front of them like they’re the artists. Speaking to Scott Winkelmann (beeple bro) about how incredible it was to see all the smiling faces videotaping Regular Animals. He mentioned 50+ inquiries for buying one (they sold out before i walked in). It will be the most viral piece in all of Art Miami. Coin Laundry by XCOPY 🏴 with incredible representation and support by Mimi Nguyen and , so busy at times, it was all hands on deck from bonafidehan.eth ⚫ pravijn ⚫️ and anyone who knew what was going on to onboard attendees with their soap. Sergey Brin was there and seen admiring Dmitri Cherniak’s Floor Ringer, the booth looked stunning huge congrats VincentVanDough Aniko Berman and all who repped.

Making intros and giving full context tours. Truly amazing work my bros, I’m so happy to see the 10/10 execution. I’ll look to end by saying i don’t care what the culturally deficient say about us, digital art is the artistic movement of our time. I just witnessed the “cool”, elite crowd of society come into our corner of the Art Basel fair and smile with intrigue as they realized why our generation is not going to be buying $60m Rothkos. Our internet native generation deserves this movement. It’s uniquely ours and it’s real as fuck, in the deepest of bears. It wasn’t passed onto us as inheritance, it grew from twitter telegram and discord. It is extreme ownership of what is truly ours, and these Basel VIPs don’t even know (yet) how based it feels to enjoy the true sovereignty of this movement. I didn’t plan to go every day, but now i feel a sense of pride i want to enjoy more days of the week so i will happily be there daily. I need to get my time with Yatreda ያጥሬዳ maya man Joe Pease !! This was a perfect exhibition in my book. 🫡🫡show more

SquiggleDAO has placed Squiggle #8434 at the MACBA Museum... in Argentina where it will be permanently displayed using the Squiggle Display Station! 🎉🎉🎉 MACBA Buenos Aires (Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Buenos Aires) is a leading institution in Argentina’s contemporary art scene, widely recognized for its deep focus on geometric and abstract art. Its collection emphasizes form, color, structure, and systems, creating a strong dialogue between historical geometric movements and contemporary practices. This curatorial focus makes MACBA an important platform for works rooted in logic, repetition, and visual rhythm. The museum’s holdings include significant works by key figures in geometric and kinetic art, most notably Julio Le Parc, whose practice explores perception, movement, and viewer participation. Alongside Le Parc, MACBA’s collection reflects a broader lineage of Latin American and international geometric abstraction, reinforcing its role as a steward of systematic and perceptual art traditions. Within this context, the Chromie Squiggle is a natural and compelling fit. MACBA has recently added a Squiggle to their permanent collection and will become the first museum to permanently display a Squiggle, a major achievement given how rare permanent displays are compared to temporary exhibitions! The museum is also the first to present the work using the Display Station, creating an interactive experience that allows visitors to engage directly with generative digital art and marking an important milestone in its institutional adoption. The Display Station will also be permanently installed at the front of the museum in order to maximize exposure and usage. The glass storefront allows anyone walking by to experience the Squiggle, maximizing exposure to foot traffic.show more

Footage was posted yesterday by someone claiming to be... a Lebanese Resident, which appears to show an Unidentified Stealth Drone operating off the Coast of Southern Lebanon. The Drone looks similar to the Northrop Grumman RQ-180, which entered Active Service with the U.S. Air Force in around 2016, but has a Distinct Body that does not match what few Images have been seen of the RQ-180. Some have suggested that this may be the RA-01, a Top Secret Drone developed by Israel and only recently revealed by the Leak of several Highly-Classified U.S. Intelligence Documents related to an Israeli Strike against Iran; however, what the RA-01 looks like or any of its Design Characteristics are still Unknown.show more
