NFTs Invade MoMA: Can You Believe It? 🤖😎

Ah, behold the curious spectacle unfolding at the gilded gates of New York’s Museum of “Modern” Art-eight arboreal avatars from the CryptoPunks ensemble now rest in its hallowed halls, a pilgrimage of indices and pixels. These spectral pawns, once spliced from silicon, are now framed as paragons of pedagogy, their chromatic wads of randomness hailed as “artistic pioneers.” Art on Blockchain, a society of crypto’s oddest bedfellows, orchestrated this ballet of blockchain and beribboning, while Larva Labs, those ancient sorcerers of the art world’s new dark ages, donated their own digital mementos. One might imagine the ghost of Marcel Duchamp sneering at such kinetics, but, oh well-he’s busy haunting NFT platforms. The MoMA curators, no doubt, are now debating whether to charge entry fees in satoshis or taxi schedule a Mothra-sized exhibition titled “From Cave Paintings to Crypto Gangstas.” 😏
