I’m working with the artist Earl Mack to sell a limited run of digital illustrations on the blockchain.
The piece in particular is of the Sean Wortherspoon Air Max1/97s, which are some of the most sought-after sneakers in streetwear right now (being worn by the likes of LeBron James, Floyd Mayweather, John Mayer, Kevin Hart...and the list could go on and on).
It’s an interesting piece as Earl was an early employee of Round Two Richmond (Sean’s first store) before branching off to become a full-time artist. Currently, there are no physical versions of the work available, as the only verifiably authentic copies to be found are on the blockchain:

Our thought is that by selling a limited edition while Ethereum is at a relative low, then resellers later on can both sell when prices are high as well as for more ETH.
For example, if you buy today at 1 ETH ($280 or so), then when ETH hits $1,000 again, you can sell for 1.5, 2 ETH ($1,500, $2,000).
Consider this a steal if you’re a believer in rare digital art, ETH, or both...and of course, have the patience to HODL
