So Zora dropped a new feature this week, every time you make a post (NFT essentially) it creates 1 billion tokens and gives you 10 million, then the token can be traded on the market.
I will admit that I do not understand at all why they did this or why it's good but the idea of making my art into 1 billion tokens seemed hilarious so I minted to give it a try!
I titled the art Manifesting Miracles
I created some collages from AI images and used various layering and coloring techniques to create variations of the initial collage. I then chose the ones I liked the best to make a GIF.
Here are the 4 still images in the GIF:
This is my post on Zora, just minted, no collectors yet (traders???) :

update: right after I posted I got 2 collectors yay! (the other 2 are me and uniswap who distributes the tokens)
I don't know if this model will have any success and a lot of artists seem annoyed about it but I'm always down to try a new thing at least once, web3 is about experimentation :)
