Available at our Mintbase Market
DAOrecords will be releasing each song as an exclusive NFT with 10 limited edition mintings to be made available to collectors and supporters on the day!
Together with the amazing artwork created for the listening party, Twisted Vacancy will be crafting individual cover art collectibles that will go for roughly $20, with 80% of the proceeds going towards the artists involved.
Changes to the Gitcoin Grant are in the process of being made via TuneDAO to shift our fundraising efforts to The Popup. If you'd like to see the proposal you can visit The Popup and the DAO for more.
We're working on a Guide for assist artists new to the space to navigate the first couple of hurdles and aid in the on-boarding process. From setting up a wallet to earning their first bit of ETH from the sale of the NFT's, we hope to make the process as smooth and understandable as possible! Stay tuned for more about that.
One Love,
Vandal
