What if you only had 8 months to get your business plan together?
Or to improve your art skills to a competitive level?
What did you want to have in place for your work, or your community or your DAO, before the most experimental end of the High Talent FIAT artists [people earning 5000 a month on patreon, and their associates], come into cryptoart, with a back catalog of premium work, and start minting?
How would you remain relevant in that ecosystem?
What happens when Loish, or Calm, or 1 Fantastic Week or Noah Bradley joins Cryptoart?

The collector pool will increase, and large speculative collectors will move in.
But also, floods of artists who look up to these people will notice that they are making money in Cryptoart, and will seek to mimic the business steps of these more successful artists.
This is what the current Fiat Art Market looks like for these underclass artists:

What if a hundred more minnows showed up, offering nothing, simply looking to post art, and extract from the reward pool?
How do you think that would impact the HIVE Economy?
What do you think the experience would be like for them?
What would be a more ideal situation for those artists?
What sort of culture should we be demonstrating, so that when they come, seeking the soothing reward pool waters of HIVE -- we get an incentive aligned increase in the value of HIVE, not a wave of poverty?
Go ahead and leave solutions in the comments for how you might use HIVE and ETH and FIAT platforms to support your own art projects in the face of these theoretical coming changes.
