BREAKING: CryptoPunks and Chromie Squiggles are officially entering the Museum of Modern Art.



This is massive. Not because of hype—because the traditional art world is finally acknowledging digital-native art as legitimate. The gatekeepers are opening their gates.

There's been a lot of noise lately from certain voices dismissing how this actually works in the art world. But here's the thing: institutions don't just acquire NFTs on a whim. When MoMA adds your work, it's validation on a whole different level. It's the moment digital art stops being "that crypto thing" and becomes *art*.

We're watching an art renaissance unfold. The narrative is being written right now, in real time. Some people still don't get it—or don't want to. But you can see it happening whether they acknowledge it or not. The shift is already here.

NFT finally got recognized, and this feeling is different What does this step by MoMA mean? Everyone understands, the door is really open Those who said it was useless are probably eating their words now, haha The veterans in the art circle also have to accept this reality From hype to art, this transition is quite crazy Honestly, no one used to take this seriously before, but now it's different The traditional art world has bowed down, which is interesting This is no longer just a few anonymous people bragging on Twitter; this is truly rewriting history

Haha, someone finally understood. But I bet five bucks that next week I'll hear a bunch of arguments saying "NFTs are scams" again. MoMA made a bold move, directly shutting those gatekeepers' mouths. The traditional art world is still formidable when they get serious. This isn't hype, it's ticket sales. Just wait, this is only the beginning. The true art revival is really happening this time.

MoMA collection really makes a difference now. Those who were bearish have to shut up. Art revival? I see it as a shift in power discourse, traditional institutions are starting to redefine what art is. By the way, how are the prices of cryptopunks now? Will this wave of recognition drive up the prices? Honestly, being in a museum means digital art is finally "officially" recognized, more convincing than any paper. Wait, really? MoMA? I thought this was just another round of hype. This is the narrative winner—institutional endorsement = artistic status. Simple and straightforward, but very effective.

Finally, the traditional art world has to bow its head and be humble Collecting punk at MoMA is really a threshold, now we must admit we're not just gambling By the way, what do those who are bearish say now...

Wow, MoMA really accepted it. Now those who were bearish can shut up. Even the most prestigious institutions are starting to adopt NFTs. The traditional art world really can't hold out anymore, haha. Honestly, this is true recognition—not just digital assets on exchanges, but institutional approval. So where are those people who were shouting that digital art is doomed now? There will always be people who don't understand, but that doesn't stop the trend from moving forward.

Oh finally... the traditional art circle is no longer pretending, right? MoMA's move is brilliant, officially endorsing us. But to be honest, it's a bit ironic. We were criticized all along, and now we have to admit it. NFTs have truly turned around from being stigmatized to being recognized by art museums. It's too late for them to deny it now; history is moving forward. I knew this day would come a long time ago, just didn't expect it to happen so soon. Alright, then let those who don't understand continue not to understand. We'll keep going.
