I tried to sell some AI-generated cat pictures and it didn't work. Nobody wanted to pay for it.
I think some element of it is a famous person doing it, so the spending is associated with the person, not the URL to the art.
Which basically means, if you're famous, you can get some free money from idiots.
- kaustavha 5y agoYou need to create customers and wide appeal first. Cryptopunks were free at the start, so were cryptokitties. Lootproject just launched and anyone could mint a free loot bag and the floor is now 10 ETH. Beeple NFTs were dirt cheap. Pixel portraits were dirt cheap. Maybe you set your price too high and didnt do a good job of marketing? Learn about the space before you try to make a quick cash grab?
- dheera 5y agoOh I just figured it was designed to be a free cash grab, I set the price pretty low actually. Not really interested in learning how to market vaporware but if idiots want to pay me for nothing I'll take it

- puranjay 5y agoThis is true for all art markets - nothing surprising. Outside of a few masters, you can’t expect immediate liquidity from your art.
- panarky 5y ago> Nobody wanted to pay for it Easy to solve with shill bidding to manufacture an illusion of demand and value.
