{"name":"Mistakes Were Made in a Wallet I Control","created_by":"omentejovem","external_url":"https://www.omentejovem.com/","description":"“Click on ‘The Dot’ to flip the image.”\n\nThat was the original description of this piece, which was called ‘The Moon’ and was the second token of my independent Manifold contract – meant to give me a place to mint playful artworks with and which I started quite a while ago.\n\nNow, I changed the metadata of this NFT (my first ever HTML artwork) – thanks to the help of Andrew Mitchell (@uncut_hems) – to give it a new life on-chain. Because, a mistake happened after I sold the work privately to Thor (@SamuraiSpirit88): I accidentally sent the NFT to the wrong ENS.\n\nWe tracked down the profile that owns it now, but they didn’t want to cooperate. After a few days of thinking, I decided it was right to then change the metadata to make it another artwork. I felt this was the honest thing to do.\n\nBut because of this mistake, my first HTML artwork now basically “died” in a way. ‘The Moon’ isn’t like it used to be anymore. It will be minted again on-chain instead of HTML, but at least it will go to the rightful owner. \n\nI lost sleep over it these past days, felt very ashamed, and really questioned myself. I take my career and reputation seriously, and it hurt to have made what felt like such a “dumb” mistake. \n\nBut mistakes happen. We’re all human, all flawed. And out of that mistake, this new fully orange work was born. I don’t know who will hold it in the future – maybe a bot, maybe a collector – but I’m glad I found a way to keep the concept of ‘The Moon’ alive and in the right hands.\n\nI want to thank everyone who helped me through the process somehow – Thor, Dino, Joe, An, Daniel, DFarmer, and many others who were there.\n\nP.S. More on the work and the sale in my next Newsletter.
