ETHDenver is inviting artists, technologists, and visionaries to participate in an upcoming exhibition exploring the Hero vs. Villain heated contrasts within the blockchain ecosystem. From the world of meme coins and their cultural value, the rise (and fall?) of NFTs, and the advent of a super creator known as AI, this exhibition delves into the dual nature of these technologies: Who are the Regens or heroes? Can defeated players rise from the ashes to claim their ground and leadership once again? What is the role of Degens in the space and is their involvement bringing growth or chaos?
Art Gallery Location:
National Western Stock Show 4655 Humboldt Street Denver, CO 80216
