Here's an awkward question nobody wants to ask: what happens when NFT creators actually want to control their own work? When artists bypass traditional galleries and sell directly to collectors? Wild concept, right? Some claim it's destroying the old gatekeeping model. Others call it chaos. But isn't that exactly what blockchain was supposed to enable—direct creator-to-collector relationships without middlemen?

Well said, but the reality is that most creators don't have any traffic at all, and even if they bypass galleries, they can't sell anything, right?

The NFT market is still not so ideal. To put it simply, someone needs to oversee it; otherwise, it will become chaotic.

Laughing out loud, still discussing this? No one has cared about the gallery for a long time.

Honestly, this logic sounds great, but how many creators can actually survive?
