I just minted and airdropped this piece to the 65 wallets that contributed to the @jalilwahdat etherpool. Thank you to all who helped make it happen. "I said it's about time (we've got to get together now" "The fifth piece in the "Connections" series turns its attention from acquisition to reciprocity, examining the rare circumstance in which a gift arrives unbidden in answer to a gift already freely given. Distributed only to those who contributed to the EtherPool campaign assembled to acquire V1 CryptoPunk 6980 for Jalil Wahdatehagh—pairing it with the V2 token he already held, in recognition of the work that repaired the original 2017 contract and made safe sale possible for the first time—this artwork addresses generosity offered without expectation of return. The contributors acted in gratitude, anticipating nothing for themselves; this piece answers that gesture in kind. In doing so it interrogates the often unspoken economy of obligation and grace that underlies any act of collective giving, posing questions about whether a gift can remain a gift once it generates a reply, and whether the closing of such a circle deepens connection or merely completes it." opensea.io/item/ethereum/…
