What you are seeing now is Ethereum collectors are entering Solana
Blue chip floors are rising as new buyers want to be apart of the best solana communities
Variance between mint & secondary market price is going up so fast it makes your head spin
Welcome my Ethereum Friends!
1/ Auction Thread!
Let’s do a run down on why Auctions on are a big deal for solana!
1) Capital Efficient - you get outbid, you get your SOL back automatically
2) With
@phantom
mobile around the corner, auctions work perfectly on mobile

My mom had breast cancer this past year.
While she is in remission, many women and men are not so fortunate.
This October, Exchange Art will be putting together a set of auctions to help raise money for breast cancer research!
100% of the proceeds will be donated!
Want to hear a mind blowing stat for
@exchgART
We doubled active wallets to 5,000 over the last 30 days!
According to our friends at Magic Eden, that puts us in 3rd out of all types of solana marketplaces and 1st for Fine Art Marketplaces!
I can’t even explain how much happier you will be in life by buying 1/1 Art and supporting amazing artists!
Buy from
@exchgART
@holaplex
Just support people making original art!
I’m bullish on artists that decide to do 1/1 genesis drops on Solana!
Always lead with your best work! Trust me when I tell you, Solana collectors will know.
I’m going to go a little JFK here…
Ask not what solana can do for you, but what you can do for solana!
This past month I onboarded over 250 artists to
@solana
We all are apart of Solana’s success!
We created
@exchgART
because we were tired of middlemen taking abusive percentages from artists.
Our core platform only takes 2.5% for auctions, offers and buy now listings because we want to empower artists to achieve their artistic vision.
What we are doing on
#Solana
is bigger than ourselves.
It’s about opening doors for others.
It’s about changing peoples life.
That is what motivates me everyday with
@exchgART
Since minting began on solana,
@SOLBigBrain
has been a friend, mentor, and advisor to me and now he is an investor in a company I cofounded
@exchgART
It’s a privilege and I look forward to disrupting the blockchain landscape for 1/1 artists.
🔥Feature Alert🔥
Art is for everybody!
Everybody should be able to participate in an auction event whether they can bid or not.
This is why
@exchgART
has just released live chat on auctions!
@exchgART
is going to continue to push the boundaries of the 1/1 art space!
I’m going to say something controversial,
@cryptocubs_io
are going to surprise a lot of people over the next month.
Hot Take: I believe it will rise to a top ten Solana NFT project.
Disclosure: I just purchased 10, not financial advice
One approach to marketing auctions:
- 2 Days before your auction, tease the NFT without revealing it
- 1 Day before reveal the piece with a thread & auction info
- Day of tweet about the auction
- During the auction tweet updates on new bids
- Post auction give recap
Yes, you can and should promote your work until it is sold.
There is tons of amazing art and you never know when that collector will come along.
Own your destiny!
Why do I pay Artist royalties?
As a buyer, I understand the value that an artist provides for the royalty they receive.
And I’m not an idiot…Yah, I chose violence this evening.
This saying never gets old...
has done something first again.
The NFT Notification now has dynamic images and offer amount on the offer you receive whether it is listed on Exchange, another Solana Marketplace, or even unlisted in your wallet.
I believe if you are crazy enough to believe you can change the world, then you can.
A million people tell me I’m crazy for trying to transform the art world.
Screw em and keep building 🤝
Solana might be down, but collectors are still buying fine art.
~20% of live auctions have at least 1 bid on them.
If the price of $SOL can be down 27% and the market still is supporting artists, it is hard to not be bullish long term.
I sold my first piece of art today for 4.69 SOL to
@SIMPLEMONSTERP
It wouldn't have been possible if
@S0Ltoshi
didn't tell me to grow up and sell some art, so thank you for that!
I’m so hype for the rest of this week!
Massive updates still to come this week!
Let’s recap what
@exchgART
has released this week:
1) Permanent bid history
2) Trending auctions
3) Up to 20 auctions per page on auction house
4) Updated NFT Cards
5) Reliable ARWeave Endpoint
I'm strongly considering onboarding new people to
@solflare_wallet
or
@slope_finance
Unfortunately,
@phantom
continues to fall behind its competitors & is failing to make the right investments in mobile and NFT support
I think the community has been ignored long enough
When you buy digital art from an artist, at a minimum you get the ability to:
1) Hang the art in a digital frame in your IRL home
2) Hang the art in your metaverse home
You are providing an artist with the financial means to express themselves creatively!
For all new people in solana, please use a burner wallet when you are minting.
This simply means have a wallet with no nfts and minimal sol in it, so that you don’t lose everything if you accidentally approve a transaction that drains your wallet.
I will continue to support leaders that push the 1/1 art space forward.
I'm thrilled to have an amazing friend in
@S0Ltoshi
and I just minted 3
@MinistryArt
NFTs so far!
I would recommend Ethereum 1/1 collectors stop trying to fight the culture chain and join it
Solana Network usage is through the roof in a bear market
The future of art is happening on Solana right now
Don’t be that person :)
