@CryptoGarga Oof, I hope not. That would be really bad for the average Joe. And I wonder, if google was behind a 1K paywall back in 2000, would they be the household name they are now?
got lost in figma and found myself staring at a bunch of old concept art for Meetropolis, home of the Meebs on Otherside. This city has been in the hopper for a long time.
Really excited for everyone to get to explore it (and kill each other) next month in Project Dragon.
Andy Warhol has been dead for 36 years but his work is still being recontextualized by artists today. The organization built around his name keeps the work relevant not by doing nothing, but by expanding the work’s context. That’s what true stewardship looks like.

gm,
wanted to share an update on punks: when we acquired the collection a couple years ago, we did so with the intention of preserving the legacy of the collection.
we see punks as the early cave paintings of this new medium, and we were heavily influenced by them when creating our own spin on what an NFT collection could be with BAYC.
the team had a vision of collaborating with world-class artists to bridge web3 with the traditional art world. Nina Chanel is known for her graphic large-scale pieces with bold and colorful palettes. Her work is everywhere: MoMA, the Whitney, you name it. Matt and John were ecstatic to learn that she would be a CryptoPunks artist in residence, and so was the team.
Our plan is to get Nina’s latest collection into the hands of those who have been supporting her work in this space by making it available only to SuperCoolWorld holders. Current thinking is via randomized airdrop.
What about punks? Yuga will no longer touch punks. They will just be decentralized and preserved on the blockchain. The only thing we intend to do is support a few museums and institutions in their quest to acquire a punk and help educate their audience about them.
Giving serious katamari damacy vibes.
Love these and @ninachanel’s work. One more super unique set of characters to see in the metaverse. Nice job @cryptopunks.
Super Punk World is a 500-piece collection that is as playful as it is profound. For our Punk in Residence collaboration - @ninachanel has created hybridized 3D sculptures that blur the lines of race & gender and reflect upon virtual versus real world identities.

Sometimes you gotta ship a #meebin surprise out and it’s a little late 🫣 but better late than never so we did our best @CryptoGarga impression and packed ourselves @meebstew house and fedex parking lot
💜
Such a dope gift. Even if it took a year to finally make it to me! Huge thanks to @yugalabs and @MeebitsNFTs for the love. Big things coming in 2024 🙌🏻
A year ago, I had the idea to get a @MeebitsNFTs bday gift to our top Discord contributors. We spent months designing personalized engraved nameplates on the Tidbyts but due to delays I wasn’t able to get them out before getting booted from Yuga. Glad they have finally arrived!
