Welcome to another edition of the Pintxo’s Newsletter.
What to expect: 1088 words a 8-minute read.
TLDR: Failure is part of the growing process. DesLucrece and Bongdoe had crazy weeks. Des OE this week?
Creative Corner
Nothing major to report on this front this week. Hooked up my Metamask to Instagram so I can easily share my minted work on Insta to cross pollenate from Twitter. Feel free to give me a follow.
Getting some stickers created for Monster Server, Alphadoggg and myself. If you want any free stickers, just ping me on twitter and I can get some over to you.
Knowledge
I am not sure if the weather is getting to me or if it is because of the stage I am in life. But I have been reflecting more and more on why I am doing this. I went back and gave this episode of Optimize Yourself a listen. It talks about failure and it resonates with me.
Some of the projects and companies I respect build out in the open. It is what I like about Open Source projects. When you build something out in the public it is easy to criticize. But when you free yourself of the worry of failure or not being successful you in return get a continuous loop of feedback to get better and continue refining. This is what I have to remind myself. So thank you for being a part of this process with me. I hope the below snippet can help you as well.

NFT Space
It was another milestone week in the NFT space this past week. DesLucrece broke all expectations with his auctions and kick started a mini bull. Congratulations to you friend. From SuperRare taking its time to approve you to having a crazy auction week on one of the longest established auction houses. You deserve all the success you are having. Welcome to all the new owners, I am sure by now you realize a gem of community you have joined.
So @DesLucrece just sold Aprox 250 000$ of art today
As mentioned in the last issue, Bongdoe has been on a tear. And this past week it culminated in an ATH sale of 6.9eth from none other than Aldover.eth. It seems in this mini bull we are having that many people are discovering Tezos and the artist that started in Tezos specifically glitch artist like uczine and now bongdoe. I thought I had more time to get my 1/1 but it appears that window is quickly closing.
The casino aka fxhash has dropped a new feature for all you degens that enjoy shopping with credit cards. I look forward to someone buying a Zancan with afterpay haha. I am happy to see this feature as it can help more casual users get onboarded with fxhash.
Rounding out the eventful week. We had a crazy sale of some fidenzas for MutantHounds. Which in my opinion, I don’t think this will look like a great sale in long run, but Fidenzas are a grail for me, so what do I know.
Upcoming
Things I am looking forward to this week on the in the near future. Seattledog, seems to be cooking something up with his collection. I even saw a tweet mentioning manifold so it could be an expansion of his tezos collection. With his level of creativity, I am sure I am going to enjoy what unfolds next.
The bag collection, dropping soon...keep your eyes out! Maybe as soon as next week...
Cemhah shared a sneakpeek of a pepe/tree of life. Which hast to be one of new favorite pieces of his. For my sake, I hope it is an edition but if it ends up being a 1/1 the auction is going to be epic.
PartySkullz is gearing up for his one-year celebration with this beauty of a 1/1 and some edition work. I will be keeping an eye on this auction and participating when the time is right.

Also get your eth ready, Des does not want to miss a beat and as usual I suspect this one will be spicy.
Edition drop this coming week? 👀
