TrasHarts 2.0.1

By CryptoChild 22 June 2021

Collection: KIDS LOVE FUN

TrasHarts 2.0 celebrates love, pain and trashart during #Pride2021.

TrasHarts 2.0 marks 1 year since TrasHarts 1.0 - 1.4 was minted. TrasHarts 1.0 was the first cryptoart / NFT to have 50% royalty. Life and cryptoart should be fun so shortly after Rarible initiated a variable royalty feature, I decided to slide it to 50%.

TrasHarts 2.0 celebrates love, pain and trashart during #Pride2021.

From TrasHarts 1.0:

Give your heart away. Completely. Be prepared for it be bruised, torn out and shredded. Without this commitment, the joy and happiness of love cannot truly be experienced.

“If a person has never suffered, he or she will never be able to know happiness”

“No mud, no lotus”

Thich Nhat Hahn

---

The heart is still bruised and regularly shredded. The desire to love, to be loved, remains. Love blurs the lines between giving and receiving but as they are now lines drawn, does that mean that love is lost?

Or if challenged by Krishnamurti, was it ever love at all?

“Do you think that his fellow beings are full of confidence? They may strut about, they may put on airs, but you will find that behind the show of confidence most people are empty, dull, mediocre, they have no real confidence at all. And why do we want to be loved? Don't you want to be loved by your parents, by your teachers, by your friends? And, if you are a grown-up, you want to be loved by your wife, by your husband, by your children - or by your guru. Why is there this everlasting craving to be loved? Listen carefully. You want to be loved because you do not love; but the moment you love, it is finished, you are no longer inquiring whether or not somebody loves you. As long as you demand to be loved, there is no love in you; and if you feel no love, you are ugly, brutish, so why should you be loved? Without love you are a dead thing; and when the dead thing asks for love, it is still dead. Whereas, if your heart is full of love, then you never ask to be loved, you never put out your begging bowl for someone to fill it. It is only the empty who ask to be filled, and an empty heart can never be filled by running after gurus or seeking love in a hundred other ways.”

For those that want to know true love and how to love deeply I recommend “TRUE LOVE: A Practice for Awakening the Heart” by Thich Nhât Hành:

To love deeply you put yourself in a position to be hurt - deeply. There is no other way.

ROYALTIES

As a thank you to those collectors who supported the TrasHarts project I will be sending you copy of TrasHarts 2.0 - thank you!

Some further history on Cryptoart with high royalties:

As code is law, currently all royalties can be avoided by selling on OpenSea or a private sale on trust.

FURTHER ON ROYALTIES:

Royalties were first introduced by @PowerDada and then in 2018, 10% from @SuperRare which was reduced to 3% in 2019. The history of the royalty system we know is set out in NFT RADIO | EPISODE 10 | 5 EPIC METAVERSE STORIES by Matt Kane. An interesting history as we now look at royalties across platforms and chains.
