- I wrote a little essay called **Object Histories** for the publication Folklore.

Also, there's something really cool about publishing an essay and then minting it as an NFT π

- Embedded Captchas arriving to Guild to spice up verification requirements
CAPTCHAS:
theyβve been around, weβve all been using them, we kinda like them, they are still essential.
Guild just made them simpler and more seamless to use in your community strategies by embedding them into the bot.
