Description

In this Townhall, core contributor hudsonsims share updates following a week of meetings and events in San Francisco, including strong reception at the Node opening and early previews of Botto’s Art Basel Hong Kong installation. Discussions highlight growing interest from collectors, curators, and institutions, with particular focus on packaging strategies such as sets, books, physical works, and clearer on-ramps for less crypto-native audiences. The Townhall explores how $BOTTO can function as a form of stewardship rather than speculation, alongside ideas for patronage, delegation, and long-term support of Botto’s artistic development. Updates also cover progress on physical embodiment experiments, governance restructuring, DAO working groups, and continued refinement of the Studio interface ahead of Hong Kong. The conversation closes with reflections on balancing art-first priorities with clearer token communication and outreach.
