Gm! I love creating. When my mind is free and inspired I make beautiful things, or deep things, sometimes both; and they all come from truth, be it my own, or of those I work with. Never in my 12 years have I created with the intention of selling… But having your work collected is even more important now that we are all bound to this great invention, Ethereum. So I’m making a promise to myself to do better and share more of my work, so that collectors can learn more of what is beyond the obvious memes, at the root and spark of my creation. Do you want to see more, know more of my work on 𝕏? Help me here, please, if you can, because centralized social media doesn’t like it and it’s painful to throw art into the void. These are some of my available works in the Portraits collection. opensea.io/collection/portra… An Unattainable Dream of Love The Spirit of Perseverance Portrait of Absence Aporia: The Saving Grace

Great testimonial by Ikertje about 6529. Come join us there and see for yourself too.
My personal experience in the 6529 ecosystem has been positive, since I joined in July 2025. I entered to inspect the ecosystem a bit reluctantly and was pretty surprised, tbh. Found a place less toxic than X, where I daily chat with other artists, sometimes about art, sometimes about life. Very mIRC vibes from 1999, for the older people here :) I created my own chat room where I can share my art in a more laser-focused manner than on X. It allows for discussion and why not, a mini fan base of collectors joining: exposure, what every artist needs. I have never felt used as an artist, as the income I got from becoming a meme artist I could have never made on SR (who can sell a 1/1 at 3 eth? not me), even getting 85% vs 50% split, math doesn’t lie. The platform gave me exposure to new collectors and interesting conversations that happened after my meme card mint, which almost never got on X. I found genuine interest towards me. Is it a perfect ecosystem? No. Nothing in life is. But the ideas and movements happening daily there are more sexy and driving than the key warriors on X. I found a lot of passion for decentralisation, networks, and future states. It has a geek component I connect to, and other geeks expose me to new tech, which even feeds or inspires me professionally. I never thought I could aspire to become a meme artist, as I am not very popular, but my art was seen, valued and collectively voted (again, to my big surprise!), while I am/was buried by the algo on X. Some of the questioning might be understandable, but very often the questioning comes from outsiders that they didn’t do enough deep dive to have an objective experience before judging. Get in, observe, decide, raise the hand, provoke changes! I professionally work as a design researcher. I fall in love with the right problems, to find the right solutions. That drove my curiosity to join 6529, and I prefer to build from the inside than criticise from the outside. Who doesn’t, at the end of the day? Hope to build bridges with this post, as nothing is white or black in life. Be curious.

Assange is also with us!
Lula vs. Bolsonaro: I was held in solitary confinement for 1,901 days for revealing the truth about the U.S. government's killings and espionage, including against Brazil and its industries. Out of power, Lula fought for my freedom. In power, Lula discussed my persecution with Pope Francis, who decided to meet with my family and offer help. After my release, Lula and I met in Rome to mourn the Holy Father's passing. Lula was kind to my children and asked for nothing in return. In contrast, Jair and Flávio Bolsonaro did nothing and said nothing. Yet without the ability to say no to Washington and Tel Aviv, there can be no domestic policy, only foreign instructions. Those orders are always the same: "Expand our theft of resources and wages, and keep your mouths shut about us murdering children." Sellouts will surrender everything in exchange for a cut, even their own tongues.

Thank you for laying out the full story, @punk6529. It’s meaningful to see how many people contributed to making this happen, from the initial proposal to the acquisition and the final artwork vote. I’ve been exploring Chromie Squiggles through photography and light painting for some years. For THE VAULT, @HugoFaz kindly opened the doors of @Casa_NUA in São Paulo and patiently waited while I spent hours in the dark bringing this long-held idea to life. Have you seen the behind-the-scenes of how it was made?

1/ On Squiggle #6529 I would like to explain why we are excited about “buying a Squiggle” While Squiggles are, in fact, sweet, the exciting part is that every part of this process happened in a decentralized manner. 2/ @aRegularDad proposed a Meme Card to fund a Squiggle acquisition. 81 profiles participated in the Main Stage vote and voted with TDH to mint this as a Meme Card The card won. 77 paid editions were minted, providing 2.51 ETH for the acquisition. 3/ @cheesebiz and @bankons helped scout and connected @squiggleDAO . SquiggleDAO suggested trying to acquire Squiggle 6529 The price was 3.01 ETH, so @MadaCollects who had been following the discussion, chipped in another 0.5 ETH to the pool (respect!) 4/ The seller wanted to stay anonymous, preserve the provenance (no intermediary transfers) and keep their vault secure. Ultimately, the seller trusted SquiggleDAO and 6529 network and sent the Squiggle directly to the 6529 Network Museum before receiving payment. 5/ Reminder: What is the 6529 network museum? It is a SAFE vault organized by TDH, owned by the network, a cultural asset, NFTs go in, but ~they do not go out. It is the network-native concept of a national public museum 6/ Finally, one more step to replace the temporary art on the card with something appropriate for the long-term. Well, another TDH vote of course. @ricardotakamura won with THE VAULT, a long-exposure light painting made at Casa NUA in Brazil. 7/ So to recap: - Decentralized network mints a meme card to buy a squiggle - Decentralized network picks which squiggle to buy - Decentralized network updates the art - Decentralized network permanent home for the squiggle 8/ What was my contribution to any step of this project? Nothing at all. I was not involved at all in any way. I had a vague awareness that it was happening, but was not following any of the details, let alone helping. 9/ Now, some of you are thinking “ok, fine, that is cute, the NFT nerds are collecting NFTs again” Maybe. Or maybe collecting NFTs is a generalizable proof of concept, and there is no actual limit to this primitive. We will see soon enough. 10/ Thank you to all who organized, the voters and everyone who minted. Great job by all.

A meaningful moment for crypto art, and one I’m proud to be part of. THE VAULT was chosen by the 6529 community as the artwork for Meme Card #550, helping bring the Squiggle #6529 acquisition into the story of the 6529 Network Museum. I’ve been exploring Chromie Squiggles through photography and light painting for some years around here. It means a lot to see this work become part of a collective effort to preserve crypto art history. Thank you @punk6529, @aRegularDad, @HugoFaz, @Cheesebiz, @Bankons, @MadaCollects, @SquiggleDAO, and everyone who participated and helped bring this together.

In 6529, the “gatekeepers” are the community of holders who minted or bought cards, along with winning artists who received them for free. Decentralization isn’t about giving everyone a vote. It’s about fair rules that apply equally to everyone, with no central authority enjoying special privileges. Equal opportunity, not equal outcome. This is exactly how I would describe Bitcoin as well. 6529 isn’t a communist society built to support artists. It’s a network state designed to grow itself while funding public goods, including art, software, science, research, etc. The tech stack includes its own censorship-resistant coordination app, a novel decentralized decision network, and a growing set of smart contracts, including new ones designed to increase artist revenue. The goal is to be the third most decentralized chain at the launch of the network by independent validator count (coming soon!!). This is a beautiful ambition which should be supported not torn down. IMHO, 6529 has delivered more value to more artists than any other platform. Yes, the network takes 50% to fund its own growth, but it has no VCs or special insiders to fund it. The Memes is the only funding mechanism for the network state and mints are open to anyone with an internet connection. Also, once the chain is live next year, the broad community of aligned TDH holders who have participated in the open minting process or artists who have won submissions will control that treasury together. I look forward to valid criticisms of the network state from people looking to improve the project. To criticize you must first understand. I see a lot of the criticism. Very little understanding. I’m sure we will see many good ideas from community members, artists and builders as the project grows. Also, gmarfa

Wild take: OSSEN is @punk6529 doing one last round of FUDDing his own project to shake out the last ones only only there for profit or those who still think 6529 is just an artist minting platform. 😅
Hey @grok, The Memes by 6529. One word or number each: 1. % of mint revenue and royalties to 6529? 2. Is that spending publicly audited? 3. Is access to minting open or gatekept? 4. Who benefits most: artists, collectors or operator?

Still obsessed with revenue share Oss? Let me share what’s in the works. The 50/50 you keep repeating is just one model out of many. Get informed before you “criticize"
Cute. Submit it. The top TDH wallets will decide if it’s art, and the house keeps half either way. 💀

hehe see? I told you Respectfully ma'am, you have no idea what we're doing! When you say "the top TDH wallets," do you mean the people who've collected the most and held their collections for the longest time? You're looking at one tiny piece of the puzzle and judging the entire thing based on that! Maybe nobody's ever properly explained it to you, but you're in luck now, because I'm gonna explain what the 6529 Network State actually means, with all the humility in the world, and in a language you can understand! First of all, I'd like you to go back and take another look at everything we value at 6529. If exploring this ecosystem feels too complicated, I'd suggest reading @punk6529 's pinned post from beginning to end. It covers the different areas that define our values. But I've got my own perspective to share! The Memes by 6529 isn't just about putting artists' work onchain as a tokenized art collection. In fact, the artists and their work in The Memes are the backbone of this entire network! We're building something that goes way, way beyond an art gallery or a curated collection! And the beautiful thing is that it's completely open-source, free, CC0 and most importantly, built around the principles of decentralization! Why does that matter? I'll explain more :)) Step by step. Why do I believe in punk6529? Long before punk6529 had a platform or anything to sell, a reputation had already been built in a completely different way! Punk spent an enormous amount of time collecting artists' work and a LOT of money too! Way more than you lolol But it went far beyond simply being a collector. Punk brought collectors/builders/creators/and many together, organized a free NFT course at the University of Nicosia at 2022 and gathered some of the best people in the space to educate others properly. some really incredible things happened back then. You weren't around to witness them, dear, but if you wanna get a feel for the vibe of those days, check this out: oncyber.io/6529om (BTW, since you're such a big fan of ACK, you should definitely check it out!) Anyway, a lot of time has passed since then. plenty of accounts say all the right things. Some are great collectors, some genuinely love NFTs, but what made punk6529 different? Punk actually took action! The Memes by 6529 was born because "Who controls the memes, controls the universe", Because we believed memes could play a meaningful role in communicating ideas and not just within some tiny corner of the internet, but on a global scale! you know even Elon has posted memes, right? But was that all there was to it? Absolutely not! That was just the point where we started figuring out exactly what we needed, while running into a thousand different problems along the way. problemss ? yes! BTW, do you know what a GAS WAR is?! That randomly came to mind because I remember how everyone used to complain about it. Well, what happened? Today, we have one of the fairest allowlist systems for collections! I brought up gas wars because back then people were constantly complaining about gas fees, minting, and all that stuff. But we've since built some really useful solutions, like Subscriptions! Go explore what that is, lol. We've already solved a thousand problems like this in our network :) So what did 6529 actually become? Just another NFT collection featuring artists? Or another platform like Discord? No, my fren! PLANS MEASURED IN CENTURIES!!! What do you mean, Meysam?? YES, MA'AM! REALLY! PLANS MEASURED IN CENTURIES! We wanted to build a system with a strong, resilient structure that could keep functioning over an incredibly long period of time. A network where, as I mentioned, artists and collectors were the first communities to become active. They were the ones who formed the backbone of this network and helped it grow! And in the future, we'll see how this ecosystem expands to include entirely different communities. That's exactly why I keep saying we're not just another community built around a PFP/NFT collection. We're a NETWORK in every sense of the word. Right now, you can find pretty much every artistic style and medium imaginable within The Memes. We have participation, coexistence and so many incredible artists who've submitted their work. And we're taking a step that's infinitely important! Something the world has never seen before! How? Because we're decentralizing decision making! Yes, decentralized decision making in a decentralized structure! And now we've finally reached the point where I can tell you to go read about the concept of a Network State. Because that's exactly what we're building here. A DECENTRALIZED NETWORK STATE! Hahaha, do you know why everyone kept telling you decentralization matters in their posts? Do you know why decentralization has become such a personal concern for me, especially as an artist? For the exact same reason I explained in my message to you, the one you didn't even bother to read! YES! Go read that damn message and understand what I've been dealing with as an artist because of OpenSea's completely centralized environment. Seriously, read that damn message and put yourself in my shoes. I promise you'll become a massive supporter of decentralization! Anyway, back to the point. I was saying we're building a Network State. By the way, do you know Balaji? Do you know what Steemit is? Do you know what Hive was? Do you know what happened when Justin Sun hijacked the Steemit Network because it wasn't sufficiently decentralized, causing an entire fascinating community of creators and writers, built by people from Reddit and Medium, to fall apart?! Because the backbone of their entire ecosystem depended on something that could be taken over relatively easily, with devastating consequences! TDH, though? Fucking genius! But is TDH alone enough? NO! And that's exactly why we have things like REP, which represents reputation; NIC, which relates to identity verification; and XTDH, which reflects your participation in other NFT collections as recognized by their own communities! And these are just the tip of the iceberg. Come over here and let's talk more about TDH: 6529.io/waves/b38288e6-ca9d-… I'd love to tell you about validation. I'd love to explain the vision for the future of coordination between humans and AI. I'd genuinely love to write another ten pages so you could fully understand what I'm talking about. But here's the thing: Everything I've written to you so far is about what we've ALREADY BUILT AND DONE. Not what we're planning to do in the future... Now, if you want, come hang out at dive bar and we can talk more about this whole TDH thing. Maybe I'll even manage to convince you to buy a few Memecards and earn some TDH! Oh, and by the way, I'm not a whale, and I've never even submitted a Memecard myself. All of this is coming from someone like me! and future? see you in last day in 2027!
Cute. Submit it. The top TDH wallets will decide if it’s art, and the house keeps half either way. 💀
