Art coins, not static NFTs. ERC-20i turns ERC-20s into evolving on-chain culture: liquid, composable, and expressive. A modernization of ordinals for Ethereum.

[20iFoundation @20iFoundation]

What is 20i and why it matters:

20i started from a simple question: why are tokens just numbers, and why is most digital art static once it’s minted? Crypto gave us ownership and liquidity, NFTs gave us culture and identity, but they largely lived in separate worlds.

20i brings those worlds together.

At its core, 20i is a token standard that allows art, state, and logic to live inside a fungible token. It’s still an ERC-20: tradable, composable, usable across DeFi, but it can also visually and functionally evolve on-chain based on how it’s held or interacted with.

A big inspiration for this was ordinals. The idea that art and culture should live directly on-chain, not abstracted away or hosted elsewhere. Ordinals showed that permanence and on-chain presence matter. 20i takes that philosophy and modernizes it within Ethereum’s programmable environment.

That’s the technical leap.

Instead of:
-Tokens that do nothing but move
-NFTs that look cool but stay static

20i enables living assets:
-Art that changes over time
-Tokens that reflect participation or usage
-Assets that can plug into apps, games, and communities

Liquidity without sacrificing identity

From a tech perspective, developers don’t need new wallets, new chains, or custom infrastructure. 20i works today with existing Ethereum tooling. Projects can adopt it incrementally- as art, as mechanics, or as a core asset without rebuilding their stack.

From an art perspective, 20i advances on-chain creativity. It treats digital art less like a finished object and more like a system- something that can grow, respond, and carry meaning over time while remaining fully on-chain.

That’s why 20i isn’t just “another token” or “another NFT format.” It’s a new primitive.. one that expands what crypto assets can be and how culture can exist on-chain.

We’ve been building this for almost two years through real adversity. It started out strong, with the projects you see today adopting the tech early, but after that, progress slowed and not much was shipped or deployed publicly. That’s the honest truth.

What matters is that it didn’t stop. And now that’s changing. Creative builders are stepping in, new ideas are being pushed, and you’re about to see what 20i can actually do beyond the existing examples.

If you’re new, curious, or skeptical, take a look around. Ask questions. Explore the tech.

This is about pushing crypto and digital art forward, not chasing a cycle.

what if your collectible didn’t just sit there…what if it changed on its own, slowly evolving over time

while quietly generating yield
while you just… held itno clicks. no claims. no noise.

just watching it become something more 👀

[20iFoundation @20iFoundation]

This is going to change the way you see onchain logic.. you have no idea...

[Froggi @Froggi_ERC20i]

The game is coming along and private testing is currently underway

A new ERC20i token that generates in game items. $froggi tokens will generate something special in game as well.

It's time to look to the future of dynamic onchain art on @base. It's being gamified

[20iFoundation @20iFoundation]

What’s happening with UniPegV4 (@unipegv4) is exciting, seriously. It’s clear the market is starting to wake up to hybrid tokens where art, collectibility, and liquidity live in the same asset.

But it also needs to be said: this isn’t coming out of nowhere.

This is very clearly an expansion of ideas that have been explored with ERC-20i / 20i, where tokens carry on-chain art, evolving state, and cultural identity while remaining fully fungible and liquid. That groundwork has been getting built for years, especially on Base.

Projects like $FUNGI and $FROGGI have been pushing this forward long before the spotlight showed up. And now we’re seeing builders like Pepi and Jelli expand into ETH with new projects that are getting real traction, which is amazing to see.

That’s the bigger picture here:
The format is working.

Now the hope is that as attention grows, it doesn’t just stop at the newest thing, but also flows back to the projects and communities that have been experimenting, building, and refining this idea from the start.

20i was early. And it’s still building.
This is how new primitives take hold.

Quick update on some things:

- Trait rerolling has been added to the contract and wired in-game. Rerolling consumes an upgrade point.
- Salvaging added to the contract and wired in-game, integral for inventory management.
- Various improvements to the games internal logic ensuring smooth gameplay across devices
- A Testnet Reward contract is deployed and is being in-game token collection.

Pepi tribe! Big news!

We have launched Pepiscan (similar to Etherscan): https://t.co/9GGTvnWUci

The scanner is still under development, so you may encounter some bugs. We’re actively working on fixes, improving the interface, and adding many new features in the future. Stay tuned!

Guess they don’t know what’s being built by @Falazen2 using 20i

NEW: SOLANA FOUNDATION PRESIDENT @calilyliu SAYS "GAMING ON A BLOCKCHAIN IS NOT COMING BACK"

[Froggi @Froggi_ERC20i]

Have you heard @Falazen2 is developing a ERC20i game on @base??!

Tokens that generate in game items?

$froggi will be involved. Maybe $froggi tokens will generate you an in game familiar??

exciting times ahead for ERC20i

[Froggi @Froggi_ERC20i]

Back to the daily grind. These digital dynamic frogs don't quit.

$froggi tokens on @base generate art you can evolve. That's more utility than most!

Start growing your $froggi today. Check out the app to dive into the world of ERC20i

There’s a lot of change happening in 20i right now. New projects launching, others migrating, ideas evolving; it can definitely feel overwhelming at times.

The best thing anyone can do is do their own research and make informed decisions as things develop. 20i is still early, and while we’re confident in the direction, some of what’s happening right now is naturally going to be a bit controversial.

That’s okay. It wouldn’t be crypto without a little confusion, experimentation, and the occasional test of conviction.

@Falazen2 Rest up king! Enjoy the days away from the kitchen 💪

[Falazen.eth @Falazen2]

Away from the studio for two days. Adding more traits on items in the meantime 🔮
