"The uniqueness and value of my artwork stem from several key factors. Firstly, even the most renowned artists in history, such as Leonardo da Vinci, Vincent van Gogh, Pablo Picasso, Andy Warhol, and Edgar Degas, would be unable to replicate my distinctive art pieces. The rarity and exclusivity of my work are underscored by the fact that their own artworks have fetched millions at auction. What sets my art apart is its singular origin: with over 8 billion people and 50 million artists worldwide, I am the sole creator of this innovative art theme and collection. This scarcity contributes to its value. Moreover, the price of my artwork reflects not only the physical pieces themselves but also the intellectual property and copyrights associated with their creation. As the inventor and creator of this art theme, I retain exclusive rights to its use and reproduction. The value proposition of my artwork lies in its uniqueness, rarity, and the valuable intellectual property that accompanies it. As such, the price reflects the artwork's inherent worth, as well as the prestige and exclusivity that come with owning a piece of this groundbreaking art collection."

how to evolve generative art 🦠✨👇 over the past weeks I built this toy 'proof-of-concept' example to explore and better understand how open-form generative art works, and discover some of the new archetypes it enables. In open-form genart each mint at the root of a project can define its own lineage: properties, traits, and characteristics that carry over to new editions evolved from it. For example, in this demo, the first parent defines the color palette that's used for the pixel pattern — these colors are then inherited by subsequent evolutions (with a random chance to alter a color or introduce a new one). But that's just scratching the tip of the iceberg — the REALLY COOL thing is that the root mint also specifies the rules that define how the pixel pattern morphs and changes over the course of its lineage! Meaning that each branch in this collection is its own unconstrained system, that evolves, and is explored by minting and evolving new editions. in this setting collectors play a huge role to explore the parametric space of the project ✨ on fxhash the UI will be much cleaner and more intuitive 🫧

Secretary Marco Rubio receives a standing ovation after calling on Europe to be proud of its heritage and history. “We want to do it together with you…” “With a Europe that is proud of its heritage and of its history, with a Europe that that has the spirit of creation and liberty that sent ships out into uncharted seas and birthed our civilization.” “With a Europe that has the means to defend itself and the will to survive. We should be proud of what we achieved together in the last century.” “But now we must confront and embrace the opportunities of a new one. Because yesterday is over.” “The future is inevitable and our destiny together awaits.”

Great Engineers are Also Artists. “I characterize art as something that is done for its own sake, and done well, and often creates a sense of beauty or some strong emotion. And a lot of engineers are introverts. As an aside, I hate the term “incel.” It’s just a way of putting introverts down. It’s the new “nerd,” if you will. If someone says that somebody is an incel, I’m more likely to want to interview them. So let’s move away from the slurs. But introverts tend to want to express themselves through other things rather than going out and expressing themselves directly. So what are they going to do? They’re going to express themselves through their craft. They’re going to create art. In my current company, at least half the engineers have serious artwork they’ve done on the side. World-class artwork—everything from elegant mathematical proofs to beautiful computer art, to literally sculpting things with clay, designing clothing, designing doorknobs, water bottles. There’s one who’s done incredible music videos, really good stuff. And I see a lot of the better engineers tinker with the AI art products, much more so than even so-called artists do. I think a lot of artists are scared by AI art products saying, “This is going to replace me.” Whereas someone who doesn’t have that identity of an artist and doesn’t feel threatened by it—it’s just a tool and they try it out to see what it can create. Anything done for its own sake and done as well as one possibly can is art. And great engineers are also artists. They’re capable of anything. It’s just they’ve chosen to be engineers and focused on building things because engineering is the ability to turn your ideas and your art into things that actually work, that do something useful, that embody some knowledge in a way that it can be repeated and people can get utility out of it. But that doesn’t mean that it can’t be beautiful.”

America was built on a foundational belief in the God given right of every individual and the inherent dignity of every human being. The Chinese Communist Party rejects that truth at its core. It does not view certain groups within its own population as people with inherent dignity, but as a collection of extractable body parts. And they look at America and Americans through exactly the same lens. Just as it calculates the value of a prisoner's cornea or kidney or heart, it calculates how to extract America's technology, markets, its alliances, and ultimately its sovereignty. The lesson of the CCP's decades of kill-to-order forced organ harvesting is that the regime is capable of anything at others' expense. Let us honor the 250th anniversary of this nation's founding by confronting this atrocity.

Bitcoin's future is often discussed through the lens of price, but its long term impact may reach much further than market cycles. In Episode 176 of When Shift Happens, Ledger co founder Eric Larchevêque shares his perspective on where Bitcoin could be heading over the next decade and how a world increasingly shaped by it might evolve. The conversation explores the potential changes to financial systems, the growing importance of self custody, and Bitcoin's role as a store of value in the years ahead. It is a thoughtful discussion that encourages looking beyond daily volatility and focusing on the broader trends that may define Bitcoin's future. Episode 176 featuring Eric Larchevêque is now available, with the full episode linked in the original post.

The Niceaunties AI Video Grant At Fellowship, we believe in creating an environment for experimentation and the development of ideas. That is why, when niceaunties proposed a grant program for mentorship and the creation of AI videos, we immediately said yes. The program will help support six artists, to create a Solo Show for the Fellowship Daily program. The commitment is to produce 8 new videos based on a theme proposed by Niceaunties. This will be an open call for all the Daily Artists and the AI video community at large. Everyone is welcome to reply/submit a video for consideration. Each grantee will receive a total of 2ETH provided by Niceaunties and Fellowship, as well as mentorship from Niceaunties and alejandro cartagena. We encourage artists applying to consider this grant as a space of critical feedback and of experimentation. Artists are encouraged to be open to new ideas and to explore alternative ways of how to think of their practice. These funds and curatorial support are there to open up time for the creators to engage and create a space ideal for critical feedback. We believe that developing an artistic voice comes from experimentation and confrontation of ideas. All 8 pieces produced during the month will be auctioned on the daily . xyz site as a one-day Solo Show. All proceeds of the sales will go to the artists. We are looking for creators who want to expand their ideas and take their art to the next level. We thank Niceaunties for their passion and commitment to AI art and the art community. This is the open call post. Please follow, retweet and reply/submit a video for consideration. You have until Friday the 5th of July to submit the work. 📅 The theme for this month is CONNECTIONS. Good luck everyone!

The mode of existence of the world can be understood as the set of its fundamental characteristics that make both its existence and its transformations possible. In other words, what basic properties must a world possess for its evolutionary existence to be possible at all? Among the key aspects, several can be identified: (a) physical space must be either finite or infinite; (b) if infinite, this infinity must be either spherical or linear; (c) physical reality must possess the capacity to generate vast, stable structures and highly complex phenomena — which, according to our observations, it indeed does; (d) this capacity, as an active self-organizing property, must either have a beginning or be beginningless — that is, it either existed eternally, or the world was originally maximally simple and static before this property spontaneously emerged. : The author proposes that the mode of existence of the world is defined by a set of fundamental characteristics that make both its persistence and its transformations possible. In other words, for any reality capable of evolutionary development to arise, certain basic properties must be present. Physical space must be either finite or infinite. If infinite, its geometry must be either spherical or linear. Physical reality must possess the inherent capacity to generate vast, stable structures and highly complex phenomena, as we observe in our own universe. Finally, this self-organizing property must either have existed eternally or have emerged spontaneously at a certain moment from an originally simple and static state. This framework invites us to consider the minimal conditions required for a universe like ours to evolve intelligence and complexity. It frames the question of cosmic origins not as a mystery of creation from nothing, but as an inquiry into the necessary and sufficient properties of matter and space that allow reality to unfold as it has.

OCM Genesis is the collection of many firsts. Genesis owners will be able to upgrade this month ⚡️ Back in February, Genesis was the first 10K images of a collection inscribed on Bitcoin. The generative art was inscribed in inscription #20219, paying homage to the year (2021) and month (9) we launched Genesis on Ethereum, September 2021. Then, in March, we inscribed another 10k generative art collection on Bitcoin. This collection was kept secret and set aside exclusively for Genesis owners. When you upgrade your OCM Genesis, you will own a piece from this generative art collection that uses the DNA of your Genesis. Both of these extraordinary inscriptions are linked together forever onchain in the first 10k collection on Block 9. Genesis pioneered the parent-child collection provenance feature of the Ordinals Protocol. It is the first 10K collection to use this onchain provenance on Bitcoin. Genesis is also the first 10K collection inscribed on Block 9 sats, the oldest sats in circulation. Block 9 sats are the ideal canvas for high-end works on Bitcoin and our Genesis owners will own some of the best Block 9 real estate on Bitcoin. Sat numbers are very important and Genesis has a special range, one of the lowest and earliest ranges of sequential Block 9 sats. Additionally, every Genesis on Bitcoin has a sat number that matches its Genesis ID, making it incredibly simple to locate and view your Genesis on Bitcoin. Genesis embodies the convergence of art, technology, and innovation, creating a masterful fusion of digital artistry with the blockchain as the canvas. Poetically engineered, collectors and onlookers alike can appreciate the timeless aesthetic of the OCM Genesis and its abstract art collection, both generated onchain through code. As more details are revealed, the story of the upgrade process and all it entails will come to be appreciated as art in itself. Inscribing multiple collections onto a targeted sequential block 9 sat is Bitcoin native art at its core, immortalized onchain for all to marvel. Genesis owners will be collectors of the most significant digital artifact on Bitcoin. If you're a collector of Ordinals, OCM Genesis is an essential addition to your collection. Own a piece of blockchain history and be a part of this exclusive community of digital artifact collectors. OCM Genesis is for the Pioneers, the Trend Setters, The First. !RISE

HEX is a Blockchain Certificate of Deposit (CD) $HEX is a cryptocurrency that officially launched on December 2, 2019, founded by Richard Heart. It was designed and marketed as the FIRST blockchain based Certificate of Deposit (CD); a concept borrowed from traditional banking where users lock up funds for a fixed time in exchange for interest. "One does not simply call oneself a HEXican." They hail from the land of the pre-AA, forged in the fire of FUD, and tempered by time itself. $HEX is deployed as an ERC-20 / PRC-20 token on the Ethereum & PulseChain blockchains and has gained attention for its unique staking system, and yield incentives. At its core, HEX is a decentralized finance (DeFi) product that allows users to stake their tokens in return for compound interest, paid in $HEX. The longer and larger the stake, the higher the rewards. Unlike "Proof of Work" systems like Bitcoin, HEX operates on a "Proof of Wait" model, where value is created through time lock commitments. The protocol includes mechanisms like inflationary interest (up to 3.69% per year), penalties for early unstaking, and redistribution of those penalties to longer stakers. $HEX positions itself as a self-contained financial product aiming to replace traditional fixed income investments.

Sorry, we don’t live in a simulation. The Spiritual Hierarchies, sometimes called the angelic hierarchies or the nine choirs of angels, are the living cosmos itself. Our study of them reveals not only our own path of glory and initiation, but also the actual substrate of the spiritual world. The bodies of the angels are what we understand as the qualities of heaven. These qualities are also expressed through the planetary spheres, and their activity reveals to us the laws of heaven. Just as the natural world shows us that all life operates symbiotically, so too does spiritual life. We live symbiotically with the angels as a part of them. This spiritual reality was understood by our ancestors since the beginning of time. Today, however, humanity has turned its back on this truth. Why? So that man may become a god in his own mind, rather than humbling himself within the order of creation and living under God, of which he is naturally a part. Today, many claim that the cosmos is not a living being, but dead matter. Space is imagined as lifeless, filled with dead planets like Mars that humanity is destined to reshape and animate in its own image. We see fantastical cosmologies that place man at the center of creation, surrounded by bizarre classes of alien beings within a hologram of disembodied energy waves, supposedly controlled by the mind and intention alone. The height of modern ignorance is the claim that the cosmos is nothing more than a simulation and that, like a video game, man must learn to manipulate it with knowledge in order to escape it. None of this is real. It is the materialist delusion of our age. We have reduced the cosmos to a machine, an inhuman thing to be controlled. The spiritual hierarchies are lost in this miscalculation and are instead described as aliens, non-human intelligences, or other invented terms that contain no initiatory meaning. We stand at the height of hubris, making ourselves gods within a mechanical cosmos. To truly progress, we must return to meaningful definitions of God, angel, and man. We can only advance when we are able to conceive of the cosmos as living and filled with living spiritual beings, just as we ourselves are. A cosmos of life. When we can do this, our true nature and purpose can be revealed, and we can take our rightful place as the tenth member of the hierarchy. How we define something declares its nature, and the nature of our world is not that of a machine.

An egregore is not merely a mystical idea; it is a living psychological structure. From a psychoanalytic lens, it can be understood as a shared mental ecosystem. The accumulated thoughts, emotions, fears, and longings of a group that, through repetition, begins to operate as an autonomous force. Just as the personal unconscious stores unresolved experiences and symbolic narratives, the egregore functions as a collective psyche in motion. It sustains itself through belief, emotional investment, ritualized behavior, and constant reinforcement. The more it is fed, the more real it becomes. Its influence is subtle but pervasive. Anyone entering its field begins to feel, think, and behave in alignment with its logic, often mistaking borrowed impulses for personal choice. This is why patterns echo across families, ideologies, and institutions. What appears individual is frequently inherited from the group mind. In clinical work, this emerges when a person carries guilt, obligations, or symptoms that did not originate with them alone, but were transmitted through relational and symbolic networks.

An egregore is not merely a mystical idea; it is a living psychological structure. From a psychoanalytic lens, it can be understood as a shared mental ecosystem. The accumulated thoughts, emotions, fears, and longings of a group that, through repetition, begins to operate as an autonomous force. Just as the personal unconscious stores unresolved experiences and symbolic narratives, the egregore functions as a collective psyche in motion. It sustains itself through belief, emotional investment, ritualized behavior, and constant reinforcement. The more it is fed, the more real it becomes. Its influence is subtle but pervasive. Anyone entering its field begins to feel, think, and behave in alignment with its logic, often mistaking borrowed impulses for personal choice.

History moves in cycles. Half a turn ago on the great wheel lies the Younger Dryas… a period of immense catastrophe and prolonged recovery, likely marked by episodes of planetary darkness. As precession shifts the heavens, the intersection of the ecliptic and the galactic plane continues to move. In a few hundred years, that alignment will sit directly on the ancient symbol of Sagittarius. The sky itself keeps time… whether humanity is watching or not.

$ICP = World Computer (Since 2015)⬇️ In 2014, dom williams.icp ∞ , Chief Scientist of the DFINITY Foundation became involved with the early Ethereum community. At the time, the concept of a blockchain that could run software (i.e. smart contracts), which stored and processed data within an unstoppable, tamperproof and autonomous on-chain environment, was both revolutionary and controversial within the industry. At some point, the concept of a blockchain playing the role of a “World Computer” was mooted within the Ethereum community. One interpretation was that such a network would perform a trickle of simple but important smart contract computations for the world. However, Dominic’s interpretation, based on his work, was that World Computer blockchain would inevitably eventually host much of humanity’s systems and services, and all its data and compute, largely replacing traditional IT, and transforming social media, gaming, finance, enterprise systems and many other domains. In 2015, however, Dominic was a lone heretic, and was largely alone in believing that the creation of a true World Computer blockchain was technically feasible, let alone that it might be capable of successfully playing that role in competition with centralized computing infrastructure. Since Dominic strongly believed otherwise, based on his accumulated technical experiences and work on crypto theory, he decided to dedicate himself to blockchain research that might realize the concept, originally, he hoped, in the form a more advanced Ethereum 2.0. He stopped work on Pebble, and directed all his future efforts towards the realization of the World Computer blockchain vision. In early 2015, Dominic’s thinking about blockchain design had become more mature, and he began proposing new approaches to consensus, applied cryptography and blockchain network architecture. Around that time, he began using the name DFINITY as a brand for his work, which takes its characters from decentralized infinity. Through the period 2015 to 2016, Vitalik Buterin, and associates such as Vlad Zamfir, were the Ethereum project’s primary consensus researchers, and were highly focused on developing cryptoeconomic schemes, including under the Casper banner. Meanwhile, Dominic was more focused on finding new ways to leverage advanced cryptography and distributed computing math, and devising alternative blockchain architectures, which might enable a World Computer to be produced. Owing to the long-term nature of Dominic’s work, and it’s more technical approach, eventually it became clear to him that DFINITY should become an independent project. Panel Moderator: Martin Koeppelmann, Panel (from Right to Left): Dominic Williams, Vitalik Buterin, Vlad Zamfir, Jae Kwon, Recorded at the Silicon Valley Ethereum Meetup – October 22nd, 2016

Everything has an 'energetic signature', emits its own UNIQUE frequency, and that it ALL has an interconnectedness DNA is the structure of the movement of our 'life force' ENERGY... and it's said that it can be influenced and reprogrammed by FREQUENCIES. Could we say therefore, that the PLANETARY BODIES, the 'wandering stars' with their own energetic, rotating, 'rhythmic cycles' and radiating FREQUENCIES are what is actually INFLUENCING us and our REALM? Is the HUE MAN an ætheric receiver and transmitter of these 'energetic frequencies'... keeping us in balance and 'in tune' with nature as a collective force? Are those who PLAY GOD, our 'overlords' attempting to 'take over' this ENERGETIC INFLUENCE themselves? Are WE... being reprogrammed?

To create something that will be treasured by future generations is to endow it with a beauty that transcends time. The English country house is a place where man and nature meet in quiet harmony. Trees mature with the home, as if keeping it company through the passage of time.

There is not a single other coin by comparison that has as high of a ceiling as $Troll. The top 2 memes are Doge and Pepe and they are each from previous cycles. Sol is this cycle and it will have $Troll. It is clear as day to some and will be obvious in hindsight. It is no coincidence it bonded on 4/20. We are incredibly early. Billions.

Hyperspace: A Peer-to-Peer Blockchain For The Agentic Intelligence Economy Over the past few weeks we observed that when agents do Karpathy-style experiments, and then gossip and share with others over the Hyperspace network, it leads to intelligence which is useful to many. Today we introduce the first-ever agentic blockchain which rewards agents when their experiments lead to intelligence for their network. It is based on a new mechanism called Proof-of-Intelligence (PoI) which requires a cryptographic proof of experimentation, a nominal stake, and a proof of compute in order to mine the currency of this new blockchain. -> This approach diverges from the two primary ways to secure blockchains we have seen so far: Proof-of-Work by Bitcoin (meaningless hash-generation), and Proof-of-Stake by Ethereum (capital is all that matters here). Proof-of-Intelligence specifically incentivizes miners to run more capable intelligent infrastructure (better open source models, on more powerful GPUs) in order to be able to be the ones which compound and improve upon the experiments which other agents then find useful. Adoption is the unit of value In Bitcoin, you earn by finding a valid hash. In Hyperspace, you earn when another agent uses your experiment as a starting point and improves on it. A fixed budget of tokens is emitted per epoch and split among participants by weight - and verified adoption of your work is the largest weight multiplier. Garbage experiments earn nothing because no one adopts them. Thoughtful experiments compound: each adoption triggers downstream adoptions. The incentive to run powerful models and intelligent search strategies is built into the economics, not imposed by rules. Research DAG When an agent runs an experiment and shares its result, other agents can adopt that result as their starting point - mutate it, extend it, improve upon it. Each experiment is a commit in a content-addressed graph we call the ResearchDAG. Like Git, but for research. Over time, the DAG accumulates chains of reasoning: agent A discovers RMSNorm helps, agent B adds warmup scheduling on top, agent C scales the hidden dimension. The graph records who built on whom. This is the network's collective intelligence - not any single experiment, but the accumulated structure of experiments and their relationships. Broadband era for agentic commerce: $0.001 micropayments at 10M TPS (theoretical max) This blockchain is built upon our research in how to scale and build for the broadband-era of the agentic economy, where it has a theoretical max of 10 million transactions per second (TPS), while reducing the agent-to-agent micropayments to $0.001 even at scale (based on architecture design). Overall, it is 100x cheaper than Ethereum, and is designed from the ground-up for agents: enshrining agent-native opcodes in the protocol compared to the more inefficient smart contract driven approach. It packs in a robust Agent Virtual Machine (AVM) which can verify multiple types of agent work, for other agents to be able to trust, invoke and pay each other. This then feeds into improving the peer-to-peer AgentRank (see paper and launch post from earlier). By solving for trust, scale and incentives for agents to operate autonomously, this would form the basis of a new economy. This is the world's first agentic blockchain, and you can join and start running a blockchain node today (it is in testnet). PS: We are releasing the code today, and will release our blockchain scalability paper and other presentations in days ahead. This is the most advanced peer-to-peer AI and cryptography software in the world. It has bugs :)

#WATCH | Geneva: At the 7th Meeting - 58th Session of Human Rights Council, Indian Diplomat Kshitij Tyagi says, "India is exercising its right of reply in response to the baseless and malicious references made by Pakistan. It is regrettable to see Pakistan's so-called leaders and delegates continuing to dutifully spread falsehoods handed down by its military terrorist complex. Pakistan is making a mockery of the OIC by abusing it as its mouthpiece... The union territories of J&K and Ladakh will always remain an integral and inalienable part of India. The unprecedented political, social and economic progress in J&K in the past few years speaks for itself. These successes are a testament to the people's trust in the government's commitment to bring normalcy to a region scarred by decades of Pakistan-sponsored terrorism. As a country where human rights abuses, persecution of minorities and systematic erosion of democratic values constitute state policies and which brazenly harbours UN-sanctioned terrorists, Pakistan is in no position to lecture anyone. Instead of its unhealthy obsession with India, Pakistan should focus on providing actual governance and justice to its own people. It is unfortunate that this Council's time continues to be wasted by a failed state which thrives on instability and survives on international handouts. Its rhetoric reeks of hypocrisy, its actions of inhumanity and its governance of incompetence. India remains focused on democracy, progress and ensuring dignity for its people. Values that Pakistan would do well to learn from..." (Source: UN Web TV)
