Hmmm, I'm not sure I'm following your comments there. It's true that NFTs are linked with cryptocurrency, of course. One needs the crypto to be able to buy the NFTs, and thus there will always be that strange circumstance where your art is valued in crypto (e.g., ETH) and both the art's value AND the cryptocurrency value is movable. This does make for some weird circumstances (e.g., I bought a Bored Ape Kennel Club dog for 9 ETH last year, which cost me $27,000 USD and right now the same dog is worth about 12 ETH, which is worth about $16,000. So the art appreciated by 3 ETH, yet decreased in value by $11,000.) But that's the multi-variable, non-linear nature of the digital asset space. For *artists*, though, I would think it's particularly inviting, as you're usually getting paid at whatever the current rate is, and thus you have more control over pricing than investors do. But yes, especially in the beginning, it can be a lot to get your head around for sure. That all said, at this particular point in time in super-early 2023, things are looking more *up* than they have in the better part of a year. So, I'm optimistic about the NFT market in 2023. (Famous last words, lol...)
