The Fallacy Behind the Overnight Success in the NFT Space

Today I'm having a conversation with the artist Billelis.

In this episode we discuss:

• His 10-year journey of "overnight" success
• His transition from being sceptical and not believing in NFTs to becoming one of the most successful NFT artists
• What will happen when the hype around NFTs calms down?
• How he chooses his collection pieces

Food for thought

• Digital artists’ gallery exposition space was social media. I don’t know if Instagram’s success would be the same if it wasn’t for artists, photographers, and all these creative people that used it as a showcasing medium for what we do now.
• There are many moments in many artists' careers when you’re ready to say “fuck this shit. I’m done”
• We all focus on what is next so much but then we forget where we’ve come from and how far we have come in the journey of what we do.
• Digital art deserves it’s to have a medium that is native to it.
• Building your connections and your audience is very important. people expect it to happen instantly. It takes time, it is work.
