CryptoPunks was founded in 2017 by Larva Labs and is regarded as one of the first NFT collections and one of the "blue chip" NFT initiatives utilizing Ethereum ETH. The 10,000 NFTs in the collection have various features, with nine aliens and 24 apes being among the rarest. Celebrities and Sportspersons have been known to own CryptoPunks, and they are among the most well-known Punk holders.
The introduction and growth of Bored Ape Yacht Club, a collection of 10,000 Apes that began in late April, was perhaps the most incredible story for NFTs in 2021. Apes, created at the cost of 0.08 Ethereum a piece, now have a floor price of 59 ETH, recently exceeding CryptoPunks.
What if your childhood drawings never went on the refrigerator and instead resided on the blockchain, where they could be purchased and sold for hundreds of dollars in Ethereum? Zombie Zoo fearlessly tackles this question. Each Zombie Zoo NFT is a zombified interpretation of creatures from all over the animal kingdom — including, but not limited to, sea slugs, butterflies, and koalas.
Season 1 of Crypto Barista will introduce 60 caffeine-loving people whose ownership aids in the conception and implementation of the World's First NFT-funded Café. Crypto Barista owners have caffeinated benefits for life at all future cafes and websites. The "Barista Bank," a 15 percent fund put aside from the project's earnings for future usage in the coffee industry, is likewise under the owners' authority. The Barista Bank may be used to assist coffee industry-related charities, promote the Crypto Barista initiative, or start something new altogether.
The NBA has teamed up with Dapper Labs, the developer of Crypto Kitties, one of the first NFT games, to provide a line of digital tokens. Video clips of crucial moments from NBA games are included in Top Shot NFTs, with those featuring the most memorable events and top players fetching the highest prices.
With more than $418 million in sales compared to $786 million for the original Bored Ape collection, the Mutant Ape NFTs coined from the Bored Ape Yacht Club collection have established a vast market in their own right.
Dom Hofmann, the co-creator of Vine, is a tastemaker in the NFT area and his project. Loot is another example of world-building that can be possible through blockchain. Loot generated a list of stuff that would be found in role-playing games — a cloak, a sword, or, perhaps, a random accessory from any Grimes music video — and allowed collectors to use their items in many games. Think of it as blockchain-based Dungeons & Dragons if you are into that sort of thing.
It is a library of 8,888 generating Mekas inspired by Japan's Mecha universes. Mattey and Matt B, two friends who are 3D artists, have worked on this NFT project. The MekaVerse project's roadmap involves bringing the Mekas to life via high-quality 3D-printed toys. The MekaVerse project is still in progress, with the founders and holders of the characters driving the plan. The project's future goals include streetwear collaborations with renowned artists and the potential of short films based on the characters.
On the Ethereum blockchain, Cool Cats is a library of 10,000 randomly produced cat photos. The first generation of cats had one-of-a-kind color, face, and clothing combinations, with entire ensembles commanding a premium price. The rarity of the things included in each kitty determines its score, which ranges from three to ten points. The points will be necessary to breed the second-generation release and contribute to specific competitions.
With exquisite land, the surrealist magnificent corpse method gets the NFT treatment. Each collector is given a tile on which they may draw and work with the peeks of surrounding art to create a zany but cohesive piece of art. To make a tile, users must upload a PNG file of a particular coin, which is a clever play on the entire "right-click-save" cliche.
Given the current value of NFTs, they are likely to be around for a long time. The growth of NFTs and the crypto market is expected to accelerate in the coming year. As a result, consumers will be on the lookout for younger initiatives in which they believe they may invest with the best possibility of making a return.
