Hey friends!
Season 4 of Curious Cabins is coming to an end. I’ll add some personal views and thoughts about this season below, let me first get to the important stuff:
You can now burn & redeem Curious Cabins #40 - Hops! 🍻
How does it work?
Own 10 x Cabins Key #4 in your wallet. If you don’t have enough Keys, you need to collect them on the secondary market. I don’t sell any directly, only the market decides the price! If the price is too high, consider making an offer!
Visit the Burn & Reward page, connect and claim the Cabin. Once burnt, one edition of “Hops” will land in your wallet.
The page will be online for 72 hours, until Saturday, 7 PM UTC. Afterwards, no additional edition of Hops can be claimed, ever!
You can claim multiple editions (like 2 for 20 Keys). If you keep any Keys until after the burn, they will serve a future secret purpose. However, this will be the last multi-edition Cabin that you can redeem for these Keys.

Thoughts on Cabins Season 4
The current market conditions are sometimes hard to deal with. It’s all a matter of perspective, and coming from 2021 with making incredible sales, it’s obviously not easy to scale down.
As you know, standing still isn’t my thing 😄 So instead of going slower, I just use the time to experiment and try out ideas. And that’s what I did with Cabins Season 4. I’m glad I learned a lot, here’s some takeaways:
The Keys free mint was a real fun experience, however it got botted very quick (or probably just shared on some Discords with lots of people minting). While some true fans were left out, strangers with no attention & affection to my work got multiple Keys - not ideal.
Also the market price for secondary Keys is higher than I expected. One reason seems to be that many many Keys are in “dead” wallets. The owners do not offer them on the market.
Multi-Editions of Cabins are a nice touch and give more collectors the chance to own a Cabin. I want to focus on the 1/1s in the future though and not flood the market with too many Cabins. There will likely come another chance to get Cabins at a lower entry though.
The marketplace question has been bugging me very hard lately. OpenSea is annoying because of the WETH auctions (80% of voters told me on Twitter they’d prefer ETH auctions). Manifold behaved very faulty in the last auction and several bids didn’t come through (good for those who got a cheap Cabin 😉). I’m considering using Foundation for my next auction, but I’m not sure how this affects the collection or if this seems too inconsistent. Any input/ideas are welcome!
Season 5 Collabs
While we had our fun with the Season 4 Cabins, ten amazing artists were working on their Cabins for my next collab season. I will announce the release date in a while, but prepare for some incredible art from masterminds like Mari, DirtyRobot or Clement Morin.
Samsung x Ledger
Last, but not least: I’ve been working with Samsung & Ledger on a collab project. Samsung teamed up with Ledger to get a foot into web3, and they will drop NFTs soon. I was invited to make one of these collectibles, and you can claim it for free just by registering here. Please do so soon, the register window is closing in a bit. I’ll share the artwork as soon as I’m allowed to. 👀
That’s it for today! Thanks for reading this far! 💜
