10/10/2022 NFT Platform OpenSea’s CFO Exits Role in Another Crypto Shake-Up

Former Lyft CFO had been in OpenSea role for less than a year Management changes are sweeping across routed crypto sector

The crypto management carousel just keeps on spinning.

The latest in a spate of C-suite departures in the sector comes from nonfungible token marketplace OpenSea, where Brian Roberts has exited from the role of chief financial officer after less than a year in the job.

Roberts, who joined the NFT platform in December after seven years at ride-sharing firmLyft Inc., said in a LinkedInposthe’ll be an adviser to OpenSea.

“I remain incredibly bullish on web3 and especially OpenSea,” Roberts said in the post. Web3 is a vision of a decentralized internet built around blockchains.

The digital-asset sector has shed $2 trillion in value since a November 2021 peak, crushed by tightening monetary policy and blowups at crypto firms. Trading volumes for NFTs -- digital art and other collectibles recorded on blockchains -- have also sunk. OpenSea announced major job cuts in July.

The shakeout in the crypto sector is also buffeting senior management: for instance, the co-founders of bankrupt crypto lender Celsius Network LLC recentlyleft their positionsand the chief executive officer of digital-asset exchange Krakenstepped down.

The changing of the guard in the roughly decade-old industry is stoking questions about what kind of crypto sector will emerge from this year’s rout.

Inspired by and for the 2018 North American Bitcoin conference in Miami, Florida. The palm tree that has a cracked open Bitcoin coconut suggests that by traveling you can enjoy this tropical digital fruit. The peacock nesting in the tree has spread its wings to flaunt other integrated crypto logos as well. The famous Miami skyline at the bottom incorporates the coins, as well as the code that is transforming the banking buildings that made it. The origin of that skyline is in the 80's cocaine craze, so it is all incorporated into the story of foundational transformation, linked to a global movement. The file size is suitable for an 8K TV. Mr. Moe Levin, the founder of the conference is a collector a physical print of the work.

Lets do it a Dada - the portable museum
'(...) my son let us always shuffle through the colour of the world which looks bluer than the subway and astronomy we are too thin we have no mouth our legs are stiff and knock together our faces are formless like the stars (...)' - Tristan Tzara, 'Great Lament Of My Obscurity Three' The portable museum is a collaborative piece between Brandi Kyle (@PlaceofMany) and Oficinas TK. With a friendly nod to Dada (and a heartfelt 'thank you' to Duchamp), this work presents elements from both artists' arranged inside a display case, on a hinted institutional environment, inviting the viewers to question what makes a work of art, while smiling at ideas like context, presentation, content or perception.
