Blockparty was founded in 2017 focusing on NFTs as tickets for music festivals and events.  The early projects highlighted the utility of non-fungible tokens but was way ahead of its time.  As the world became more aware of NFTs and the massive influx of capital and focus, Blockparty pivoted with their 2.0 launch focusing on Artist storefronts.  This announcement comes on the heals of their beta test late last year.  To date, some of the top artists including 3lau and nate hill have already published on the platform.

The goal of Blockparty is to fix common complications that impede NFT market places including.

• The pains of gas costs and ensuing climate implications
• A smooth checkout process
• A way to display collected work
• Frustration with having to use five different markets to achieve artistic goals
• Lack of search and discoverability on markets
• Markets only catering to the already rich and famous

We look forward to watching Blockparty grow.

Zora describes themselves as a “universal media registry protocol” as a way to share NFTs. They’ve created the following manifesto:

The platforms that hold our audiences and content hostage. The labels that lock down our rights. The galleries that hold our art ransom. The big brands that think exposure is cash. They have a monopoly on ownership, a monopoly on creativity and they have been robbing us of the value we create for as long as there’s been a creative industry.

Zora is a protocol designed for the Ethereum blockchain that establishes universal, perpetual markets for media in the form of ERC-721. Each piece of media is embedded with a market, consisting of a transparent pool of bids. As a result, a universal buy-side liquidity pool develops for the piece of media that an owner can access and act upon at any time. Each market is unique to the piece of media, and its bids can be inspected by anyone. In addition to bids, the media owner may choose to set an ask price for their media, which is a suggested bid that can be executed by a willing buyer.
