Cardano Summit 2022: Community-led events

I just wanted to comment about one small aspect of these summits.

Unfortunately, Virtua really botched the NFT memento for the 2021 summit. And to make matters worse, they recently rug pulled those that had their NFT collection saved on their Virtua account as they disabled the minting function without notification. See my post here.

It is just a little thing but it leaves a bad taste for the 2021 summit.

Virtua seems to have formed the opinion that they prefer to financialise the 2021 NFT mementos, creating artificial scarcity by communicating only with their discord buddies about the rug pull. I don’t think summit NFTs should be about Ponzi financialisation but rather mementos of attendance.

This 2022 summit NFT memento was well organised with immediate minting costing only transaction fees. A simple attendance NFT without any Ponzi financialised artificial scarcity. Well done. Please keep attendance NFTs like this for future summits.
