“Generative art is a love affair with the unpredictable, a dance with the unknown. It is a romance with the beauty that can only be created through the chaotic, random creation processes. It is a love that is constantly evolving, forever changing, and always captivating.”

Regrettably, the NFT market is still too closely tied to crypto and financial markets. If increased interest rates and the higher-than-normal inflationary environment don’t cool soon, a bull market in NFTs like 2021 seems unlikely. Still, it has been great seeing Blue Chips, like punks and generative art, hold on reasonably strong throughout the bear market.

The next five years will be very interesting for everyone involved. Many people focus on the thousands of users who’ve left the space but forget about those still in the space – those who are busy building amazing things. Physical assets tied to the blockchain, such as collectibles and luxury clothing, also deserve a piece of the spotlight and are gearing up for an exciting half-decade ahead.

A community isn’t something you build by yourself; you build with others. It isn’t just about creating a group of people but a space where individuals can come together and grow as a collective force. Building a solid community takes time and effort, but the rewards are well worth it.

Generative art is a love affair with the unpredictable, a dance with the unknown. It is a romance with the beauty that can only be created through the chaotic, random creation processes. It is a love that is constantly evolving, forever changing, and always captivating.
