Zora Spotlight: Artist Rita Eme

A new minting event called 'Mint Mania' has been announced for 2024. Participants are invited to share a screenshot of their collected page along with a link to their Zora profile on Twitter. The organizers will select 10 favorites and award them with 11 mints each. Further details on the minting process and criteria for selection have not been provided.

Rita Eme, an artist featured on the Zora platform, draws inspiration from various sources such as tarot cards, comics, graphic novels, video games, music, poetry, and natural landscapes. Her creative process involves translating drawings into paintings, tattoos, virtual reality, and graffiti. Eme leads a nomadic lifestyle, creating and sharing her work from multiple locations simultaneously. The spotlight also mentions a music track titled 'Snail BPM' by @peacepeacegawd.

A new payment system has been introduced that allows collectors to use Ethereum (ETH) to purchase ERC20 token mints from creators. Creators can accept the token of their choice as payment, while collectors can use ETH on any blockchain as payment. The ETH is then swapped into the desired token by the partner platform DecentXYZ. This eliminates the need for collectors to hold specific tokens to collect their desired digital assets.

Zora, a platform for digital creators, has introduced a new social feed feature that allows users to stay updated on the latest creations from their friends and connections. The feed displays the newest content at the top, providing a centralized space for creators to share their work and engage with their community. This development aims to foster collaboration and discoverability within Zora's ecosystem.

Zora, a platform for creators and collectors, has introduced several new features and updates. Creators can now accept payments for their mints in various ERC20 tokens, including stablecoins and memecoins, across multiple blockchain networks like Ethereum, Base, Optimism, Arbitrum, and Blast. The Explore page now allows users to discover mints accepting popular tokens. Additionally, videos play directly on the feed, and profile pictures appear with comments. Creators can claim ERC20 splits from their manage pages and add their works to token-based channels on Explore to earn in those tokens. Other updates include the ability to buy mints with fiat currency, a new personalization button placement, and redirecting to the mint page after creating. Zora has also distributed over 3,800 ETH (approximately $12 million) in rewards to creators, first minters, and referrers.
