"The craze around crypto art and NFTs (non-fungible tokens, i.e. digital certificates of ownership) blurs the boundaries of culture, economy and politics. Does blockchain technology offer ways out of parasitic platform capitalism, in which all users feed the ledgers of tech gigants? Or will it lead to even greater inequality and the complete financialization of human relationships? Artist Hito Steyerl, the cultural scientist Joseph Vogl, the musician Ville Haimala, one half of the duo Amnesia Scanner, and Studio Bonn moderator Kolja Reichert discuss the opportunities and risks of a decentralised internet for the arts and democracy."
