I’m enjoying some cobbee this morning, so here’s some sunday ramblings on fully on-chain CC0 pixel art 🫡
CC0 means anyone can build with these assets…
it means a network effect FAR beyond just a founder going hard sharing their respective vision and project
the beauty of it is that these characters aren’t just universal to CC0mon…
they can become whatever you want.
they aren’t just one style, there’s 260 different species to leverage and build with!
and now with Claude and GPT 5.4, the possibilities are becoming endless
video games, trading card games, ROMs for gameboy (i’ve got some wicked ideas here!), on-chain games 👀, anything can be built with these assets, and you don’t need anyone’s permission to do so
that feels revolutionary 🔥
it makes me rly excited about nfts again, and leveraging the chain to express, and educating more ppl on the abilities of the ethereum virtual machine in that process
anyone can just direct their AI to our https://t.co/Yke7rSj9cP site and tell it what they wanna build
it’s been such a fun week connecting with the @cc0_mon community 💚🔥
so many legends have joined the ranks, so many OGs and new faces alike 🫂
yesterday we crossed the 42.69 ETH mark! a powerful milestone for the community 😤👾
so many epic folks in the community are leading their own charge to build what they wanna see, and that’s so damn exciting, and honestly feels very rare to witness.
it’s a true love around the art and the characters as a foundation for what it represents.
the community is not just looking to a centralized team and hoping they execute, they’re executing on ideas themselves because it’s FUN and exciting and CC0 allows for it permissionlessly
this is a new era for IP
a community that comes together and builds what they wanna see
since we launched the API 2 days ago, new tools are popping up daily 😤
in just 2 days:
@0xfilter8’s 1bit @normiesART pallete CC0mon generator and sticker maker
@SPELL_WEB3’s multitude of tools including a grid maker and a CC0dex!
@beastoshii’s trading card generator and battle arena 🔥🔥
and @IAmPotDEALer is working on a full fledged on-chain game leveraging the assets too
it’s incredible to see folks building and resonating with the art for the love of the pixels
and having these assets fully on-chain means it’s forever hosted in Ethereum, the blockchain is the server holding the data, forever
the pixels and art truly are forever
we launched this project for <$20 in gas fees at .05gwei, fully on-chain…
read that again… isn’t that insane?
this would’ve cost 1000X more if not 100,000X more not too long ago
there’s never been a more incredible time for creatives to build on-chain, to launch something awesome
Gmon legends, cheers to everything ahead for CC0mon and for the next wave of NFTs
LFG 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Seventeen students in the room.
Every single one had heard the acronym NFT...
Yet no one yet had collected digital art before.
Although, one student did comment they "Right click saved" some work xD
At the beginning of our talk, no one raised their hand when asked what “provenance” meant.
But they knew about NFTs - that contrast says a lot about our space and how it's portrayed by the world.
We all know that the language of speculation travels much faster than the language of historical preservation, on-chain permanence, and provenance.
Education helps rebalance that, painting another narrative - one based around the opportunity that comes along with trustless, verified ownership online.
I’m proud of THE DAM for bringing this material into classrooms and introducing the next generation to the significance of the deeper infrastructure beneath the "NFT" headlines.
A huge thanks to @AaronBlaisdell for welcoming me in to guest lecture to his students, as well as to the legendary @Nightshare for sponsoring THE DAM’s vision to educate and equip the next wave of builders, artists, and creators pursuing careers in blockchain.
In the near future, THE DAM will work on a special curated collection of artworks with these students, offering an onboarding opportunity to their network, as well as ours. We're very excited to share more as that time comes closer.
We’re just getting started – more college campuses to come!
On February 17, THE DAM delivered a guest lecture to @UCLA undergraduate students, introducing digital assets and blockchain through the lens of art and cultural preservation.
We explored the fundamentals of onchain provenance, digital ownership, and why this medium represents a pivotal shift in how culture is recorded and preserved for the long term.
A special thank you to @AaronBlaisdell for hosting us in his classroom, and to @Nightshare for sponsoring THE DAM’s continued commitment to educating the next generation of creators building on the blockchain.
Full presentation below.
nfts aren’t dead
it’s not - and it will never be
our space is never going away
it’s always gonna be here
and it’s gonna look different every year, as we all grow together, and as some people come and go
we are an ever evolving space
let’s embrace that and keep having fun
it’s why we all came here in the first place
