The Miami-based BitBasel is expanding its footprint to New York City and empowering artists though the use of NFTs

BitBasel, a Miami-based company that empowers and onboards creators onto Web3, announced a global challenge for artists during NFT.NYC 2022. Since its inaugural conference in February 2019, NFT. NYC events have hosted thousands of attendees, hundreds of leading speakers and the best projects in the Non-Fungible Token ecosystem.

The CryptoArt for Impact and Innovation Challenge is a call to action for all creators to submit their work and compete to be featured in a gallery during Miami Art Week, Nov 28-Dec 4, 2022. Selected works will also appear in an auction to raise money for the non-profit organization Miami EdTech whose mission is to advance EdTech Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in both Miami and across the nation. Collectors can purchase the Crypto Art with MiamiCoin, and other forms of cryptocurrency.

While in NYC, BitBasel also hosted an exciting “AR NFT Creator Crash Course” in partnership with Shaderverse, founded by industry leader and professor, Michael Gold. Attendees learned how to use Shaderverse’s new open source NFT creator tool for Blender to render generative art projects as a 3D NFT collections. BitBasel, which prides itself on being Miami’s Original CryptoArt Community, is passionate about empowering artists to succeed as creators in the web3 world, and Shaderverse gives artists the tools they need to get their message out without the hassle of hiring a coder.

BitBasel, in partnership with Palm NFT Studio, also announced the winners of the “BitBasel Bunnies” campaign, Roger Benites and Manya Megeni, who won NFT badges and other prizes for finding the awesome web3 ladies, rocking cool hologram backpacks and #SatoshiisFemale merch. There was a Times Square Billboard during NFT.NYC 2022 celebrating the campaign and advocating for more representation and inclusion in the market. “The Satoshi is Female” movement originated in 2017–2018 to disrupt the bro culture of crypto, and claim that Satoshi, the inventor of Bitcoin, could be anyone, and most certainly, could be a woman.

All in all, BitBasel made a big impact in NYC last week, and increased their global presence as an active leader in creating, promoting, and participating in events, projects and initiatives focused on helping artists to grow and succeed in the creator economy revolution. And they are just getting started. BitBasel has several drops and events lined up for the second-half of 2022.
