Shout out to @NaughtalieStone for an incredible Punks book launch event. As @matthall2000 said during his toast, managing the Punks is not an easy job but Stone has absolutely crushed it.
Good morning from the Punks Brunch Miami!
The best event for punks I’ve ever been to, the incredible warmth, love, strength, and resilience of the community was undeniable.
Cryptopunks are more than art, a PFP, or a community, we are a family!
Thanks for crushing it Stone 💖
@NaughtalieStone Thanks for hosting an amazing brunch the energy in that room was something else !
Def Punks not ded 🤓
Last year @Wilcox_NFT commissioned me to paint @beeple
And we painted @matthall2000 as a alien
Mural still up ! Make shure to check it out if you’re in town .
This year we rocking at Dante’s with Matt as a special guest
And beeple called me a hooligan outa nowhere 😏 mid brunch
What will come next …
I don’t know 🤷
Punks hanging out at all the hot spots
What an amazing day getting to launch and celebrate @cryptopunks “Free to Claim” book available now. But the coolest part was seeing @NaughtalieStone getting her flowers from so many community members. She has poured every ounce of blood sweat and tears into Cryptopunks over the last 2 years. The community is so lucky to have her steward the brand to the next level.
Always great seeing Punks in the wild 🥂
Huge shoutout to @NaughtalieStone, @MaggiRichmond, and the rest of the squad for putting on yet another dope event for @cryptopunks yesterday!
They really did a remarkable job on this substantial @cryptopunks book
Very happy to be in there, and also to smuggle in my TIM theory, which I do think is a cheat code for understanding a lot of the tension between 20th and 21st century culture industries, the techlash, the media etc
10,000 uniquely-generated pixel characters. $2.3B in sales. Collected in museums. Sold for millions at auction.
That's the story of @cryptopunks. Now, Free to Claim captures it all in 400+ beautifully-designed pages—complete with zine-style timelines, glossaries, and essays.
Nothing prepared me for how deeply personal this would all become…I certainly didn’t expect to cry at our book launch. As I reflect on the release of CryptoPunks: Free to Claim, I’m beyond proud to be a part of the Punk legacy. 🧵
