As soon as I can I promise to bring more articles and interesting insights to art and music, however:

Right now I'm currently completely consumed (alliteration is key) with designing and coding (and *securing*) a complete, 
# First-party LTC shopping cart for artists and musicians and designers to use to accept Litecoin for their [works](https://www.artopium.com). 
This will be *totally* different than how most sites currently accept Litecoin. I will *not* be using a *3rd-party* system such as Bitpay or ShapeShift. 

# What does this mean?

No transaction fees for purchases over $10 (Artopium will eat the miner's fee). You get what you asked in terms of how much LTC you want for your work. No hidden fees. NO exchange rates. AND MORE. Artists will WIN with this system, not third-party facilitators. I promise!
