Analysis of "most popular and valuable NFTs", focusing on the subject, the economic value and the techniques used to create them.

Interchangeable items, such as cash. If you owned a 1 euro coin and exchanged it for another 1 euro coin, you would have the same amount of money.

Non-interchangeable items, such as an artwork. NFTs are non fungible, much like the Mona Lisa painting, you can't replace the Mona Lisa with a Van Gogh painting, as each one is unique and are non-comparable.

It means a digital asset that runs on top of a cryptocurrency blockchain. It can also be used as a synonym to cryptocurrencies.

A digital asset can be anything: video game avatars, music, pieces of land in virtual worlds and much more. In the art world, NFTs provided an opportunity to replicate ownership in the digital world.

Traditionally, an artwork gains value due to people's appreciation of the creativity of an artist that cannot be replicated by anyone else, but it is ambiguous to imagine this in the digital space, where things can be easily reproduced.

The traditional artworld provides a good comparison on the topic of ownership.

The buyer owns the physical artwork with a certificate of authenticity.

Only the buyer, the bank and the galleries have a record of the transaction. This information is confidential and private.

The buyer owns an NFT, this includes a record of the transaction on the blockchain (along with its price, the owner, etc).

This is available online for everyone to check. It is also a proof of authenticity and a guarantee that the piece is unique and original.

The blockchain is a system that records transactions when paying with Cryptocurrency, in other words, virtual currency. Unlike a private bank, the blockchain is stored on a public database, meaning it is accessible to everybody.

The blockchain is made up of connected blocks of information. Each block contains:

Data
Information such as owner, price and
transaction history.
‍
ID
Digital fingerprint identifying the block.
‍
ID of adjecent blocks
Prevents data in other blocks to be tampered with.

The NFT holder does not have any rights to the work. This includes those offered under copyright law, or the rights of adaptation or reproduction.

Following the journey of a digital artwork, from file to blockchain token, helps us understand how NFTs are created and traded.

Entering the world of digital ownership comes at a high expense, both financially and in terms of energy consumption (hence the gas fees). NFTs demand a lot of energy and are expensive to create, however not all of them are a good investment. In the following section we will will take a closer look at the NFT marketplace, to see which projects are successful and who is buying them.

The NFT market is fast moving, meaning data changes quickly. The subsequent visualisations use data on the top 100 sold NFTs, collected up until 28 October.

Artwork is generated algorithmically, by a set of programmed instructions.
Exemplified by the Fidenza collection, the algorithm generates artwork with randomized variables, such as the scale, turbulence and color.

NFT's answer a lot previously unsolved questions about ownership, but their ambiguous nature raises further questions. But what do you think? Would you be the proud owner of an NFT?

There are two different ways you can donate

A. Donations can be made by sending cryptocurrency directly to UkraineDAO.eth

B. Donations can be made by participating in the 1x1 party bid

Reasons to choose A:

If you would like to make a donation available immediately for disbursement via UkraineDAO, then this is a good option if you do not have an on chain wallet set up already (i.e. you would like to send directly from an exchange like Coinbase). We understand some of you are new to setting up a crypto wallet and have very busy lives, but would like to donate.

Reasons to choose B:

If you want to partake in the social aspect and would like to receive a LOVE token. These tokens have NO utility nor value, but are a beautiful testament and reminder of your contribution to a noble cause. note: You WILL need an on-chain wallet to participate in option B.

Incomplete Control deals heavily with imperfection. I have always been interested in the presence of imperfection in the analog world, and the relative absence of it in the digital world. The forces of chaos and entropy give the natural world a certain warmth, and there are patterns and lessons there that we can use. I like to introduce these elements into the digital world, and Incomplete Control continues that work.

Created over 10 years ago. Sold in May 2021 as an NFT for roughly $580,000.

The creator, Chris Torres, was quoted afterwards saying “I feel like I’ve opened the floodgates,” - which he probably did. The gates to the world of online "art" where NFTs and the the "privilege" of saying that "I am the owner of THE ORIGINAL" maybe has more value than the actual "artwork" it self (i.e. Nyan Cat).

"Clip art of a rock just sold for 400 ether, or about $1.3 million, late Monday afternoon. The transaction marks the latest sale of EtherRock, a brand of crypto collectible that’s been around since 2017 – making it one of the oldest non-fungible tokens (NFTs) on the block." (23/08/2021, link: https://www.cnbc.com/2021/08/23/people-are-paying-millions-of-dollars-for-digital-pictures-of-rocks.html )

The value lies not in the NFT's looks or level of skill - but only in the rarity of the number of the specific NFT's. The feeling of being 1 of 100 in THE WORLD to OWN a pet-rock-NFT.... :)

Since the success of Ether Rock in August 2021, many copycat rock NFT's have launched. I'm not necessarily against these as long as they're presented for what they are. However, one bad actor in particular is trying to sell "original ether rocks" (since rebranded as "we like the rocks" and "genesis rocks" after the original site and twitter was taken down), without disclosing that A) the contract used has a serious bug where rocks can always be brought even if they've been listed as not for sale (and was therefore disbanded a day after it was deployed), B) this bad actor used this bug to exploit the contract to mint himself many rocks for free and C) the bug in that contract actually allows unlimited rocks to be minted by anyone for free. If you buy from this person you are sending your ETH to a cockroach. Due to the prevelance of unethical people trying to make a buck off the success of Ether Rock, I recommend avoiding derivative projects.

Launched in 2017, EtherRock was one of the first crypto collectible NFT-type projects on the Ethereum blockchain, having launched shortly after CryptoPunks. Only 100 rocks can ever be available, and each new virgin rock gets more and more expensive. This game is built entirely on the Ethereum blockc…

Father and mother chose to stay when the Neuralnet was first online, because they had me.

Father and mother met each other in college, father was in engineering school while mother studied plantology. They got married in the summer, and moved to Madagascar with their house built next to the shore. Mother found a job in a laboratory as a botanical researcher and father does what he does best, he opened his own shop to build and repair automobiles for a living.

Mother was expecting in June 2040, but I died in labour. Mother was fine but it broke her heart, and it made her choose to initiate the process, in the hopes that she could find me up here. Despite father's outcry, a mother's nature is ever stronger. What's done is done.

Father has decided to leave planet earth on Christmas eve, to escape from Neuralnet and rebuild civilization elsewhere. He eventually landed on the planet on the first day of 2041.

It is the beginning of 2044, 5 years after the launch of Neuralnet, over half of us are Linked. And it is one morning in spring when Neuralnet announced their dissolution, leaving the code to the entrance of the Neuralnet public. It didn't take long until the remaining half, those who could not afford or did not want to take the risk in the first place, got in.

On the first day of 2045, the Neuralnet count is at 99.99%, with only less than hundreds of us left.

The Neuralnet was designed to tempt each and every human to Link, in countless specific ways with a single objective, to unify all souls.

It was 18 Sep, 2045, when Father died, as the last man ever existed.

We reached the next singularity.
