Reuben Wu is relatively new to NFTs. He became aware of them in December last year and released his first NFT in March this year. His Genesis artwork sold for 30 Ethereum (approx. US$81,000) in mid-March. “I’m drawn to big ideas, especially big ideas which are very nascent and changing as we interact with them. NFTs seemed like a revolutionary way for artists to sell their work on their own terms and not have to fully rely on client work,” he says.
Justin Aversano has experienced more of the development of NFTs. “When I started looking into NFTs, it was all about collectibles and PFP [profile picture] projects. I decided that I would put the art at the forefront if I joined. That is what I did with Twin Flames, building a community that appreciates that art and acknowledges the artist. Then, stemming from the Twin Flames community, Quantum took that notion of NFT as art to the next level and created an incredible community of collectors and artists, making NFTs easily accessible for both artists and collectors,” he recalls.
For Trey Ratcliff, NFT reinvigorated and expanded his ability to that is almost sold out on OpenSea. It’s done almost 500 Ethereum in total volume,” he adds.
