Hello friends!
Time for another weekly hidden gems edition, featuring onchain art, products and content that caught my attention over the past week...
💎 Gem of the Day
'The artist is present' by Spøgelsesmaskinen
Rune Brink Hansen, aka Spøgelsesmaskinen (Danish for 'The Ghost Machine') just created his first Base open edition mint. Starting his journey on Tezos, The Ghost Machine also raised his flag on Solana and Ethreum.
His work features pixelated 3D animations depicting computers and machines in uncanny scenes, inspired by early computer graphics and stage design. His immersive installations and NFTs have garnered attention for their distinctive low-resolution aesthetic and conceptual depth, exploring themes of technology's ghostly presence and the unexpected creativity of glitches.

📖 Interesting Read
Vida y sombra y luz y muerte by Marcelo Soria-Rodriguez
"I was invited to present a collection for Medseart's 1st edition: a gathering around art in Menorca, Spain. Theme: Mediterranean.
This is a very personal artwork. I was born on the Mediterranean coast, in Almería, Spain. The Mediterranean meant strong light and shadow that painted my first 18 years. A sea always present, never too demanding, but it took root in me and only now I start to understand that.
📊 Chart of the Week
Blockchain Prediction Markets Soaring
For those that like to keep a broader perspective in the evolution of Web 3, this App is gaining traction. Polymarket is a platform where people can buy and sell shares in the outcome of future events. The prices of these shares indicate what the market believes is the likelihood of the event happening. For example, if a share predicting a certain election result is trading at $0.70, the market thinks there is a 70% chance of that result occurring.
Polymarket Insights:
US Presidential Election Winner: Trump (63%), Biden (22%).
Euro Winner: England (19%), Spain (18%), Germany (15%), France (14%).
Will China invade Taiwan in 2024: Yes (12%), No (88%).
Until next time,
- Kaloh
PS - Let's connect on Farcaster, X, and Instagram.
This hidden gems issue is a free collectible (almost free; you pay protocol and gas fees).
