blockchains are the best digital sandbox on the internet

you can just permissionlessly write stuff to them

author any protocol, object, artwork, standard

upload it to a public database that runs 24/7 around the world

and give anyone the ability to own pieces of what you made

immutable metadata within the smart contract is fetched to generate the piece on-demand. no external dependencies allow for true permanence and preservation as long as @ethereum runs.
