On September 28th, Conflux and Odaily successfully held the offline event "When Thinker Meets Artist", hoping to connect the artist market with the mainstream market through this event, and jointly explore the combination of art and innovation.
This event also invited many industry insiders, namely: Conflux brand director Liu Chang, Tspace founder Meng Ziyu, Foresight Ventures partner WhiteForest, encryption artist misaki-S26, ODin NFT founder Pan Bo, Crypto Pavilion CMO Elle, Incuba Alpha founder Melody and Republic investment director Runchen.
The guests shared and discussed topics such as "NFT in the Digital Future" and "NFT Boundary", seeking common ground while reserving differences, colliding with wonderful sparks of thought, and at the same time helping the audience to open up the cognitive space.
At the event, Conflux Brand Director Liu Chang delivered a keynote speech on "Playing with the Roasted Universe". From drawing comics, to making emojis, to shooting vibrato, Liu Chang shared with us many interesting attempts of Conflux on the road of promoting baked children.
Liu Chang introduced that Bazai is their mascot. It is a beaver. Its intelligent features fit well with the team's high education. Regarding NFT, the team has made a 3D version of the roast boy image, and based on the 3D image, made a version of the animation to explain NFT to users.
Meng Ziyu, the founder of Tspace, gave a speech on the theme of "NFT in the Digital Future: The Integration of Decentralization and Centralization". Meng Ziyu said that NFT brings another form of value to the blockchain, and NFT allows the blockchain to move closer from the financial system to the real world and the human world. In addition, she believes that NFT will become a form of breaking the circle. In the future, NFT will gradually integrate with more fields across borders. "Everything can be NFT." Many industries and assets in the real world can use the NFT protocol.
Foresight Ventures Partner WhiteForest said in the keynote speech that NFT can extend the life cycle of games wirelessly. If the developer's income cannot sustain the cost of the game, or the number of users is too small and the traffic is too low, it will definitely be shut down. But if games are made based on NFT and blockchain, the game will exist forever, and its value can also be precipitated. Because NFT and the data on the chain can live forever.
After the three rounds of keynote speeches, encryption artist Misaki-S26, ODin NFT founder Pan Bo, Encryption Pavilion CMO Elle, Incuba Alpha founder Melody, Republic.co investment director Runchen, and Conflux Li Ruihan (host) participated in the "Exploring NFT A roundtable discussion on the theme of New Frontiers.
Among them, Misaki-S26 believes that NFT is just a new marketing channel for most artists at this stage. In the future, with the increase of NFT types and functions, NFT works of the same quality as physical art works will have more aesthetic appreciation value, and the market will also demand higher quality works. In addition, Misaki-S26 said that he is optimistic about the application of NFT in the field of games, because games, as the ninth art, have a strong bearing capacity, and games can be understood as the initial form of the metaverse.
Pan Bo believes that NFT bundled physical sales can be regarded as a global trend, and Christie’s has bundled physical objects in many recent auctions. NFT can drive physical sales, and at the same time can effectively help in genuine attributes and traceability. In order to help artists, there are actually many ways to combine NFT and real objects. In addition, the application scenarios will eventually converge into the metaverse, and NFT may be one of the basic systems at the core of the metaverse. To make NFT more compliant, it needs to have specific application scenarios.
Elle said when talking about "multi-chain upload of the same work", NFT is essentially a certificate of ownership, and we cannot deny the creator's choice. This kind of decision-making power has nothing to do with technology, but involves the essence of human society. Regarding the original on-chain art, technology alone cannot create extremely fine-grained works. The technology itself limits the creator's thinking and defines the boundaries.
Regarding the optimistic future direction, Elle thinks that Loot is more attractive, but there are language barriers, and the performance of complete DAO governance is not so good, but in the future, it will still pay attention to more native projects on the chain.
When explaining the reason for the "high price of encrypted art", Melody said that the elites of every era or the innovative leading people of every era are looking for the art that best matches their cultural genes and ideology in this era products to represent their group. But from a technical point of view, we are not ready to store massive amounts of data. Aesthetically speaking, the technology isn't ready either. Buying NFT at this stage is more about buying scarcity.
Runchen believes that buying NFT artworks well simulates the offline shopping experience. In the future, many purchases can be satisfied (online). At the same time, NFT does not necessarily only correspond to artworks. Although there are no industrial products in the metaverse, it does not mean that there are no mass-produced things. NFT can be combined into mass-produced things, just like daily necessities.
