BTC Keys by Cryptograffiti

“I’ve always admired Cryptograffiti’s work and humble yet rebellious approach to the crypto art market. Curio Card is a historical project, before Cryptopunks and the ERC721 standard, and the way they partnered with artists to develop a series of cards is reminiscent of Rare Pepe and highlights the historical transitioning from digital games to collectibles with an artist signature.“

Genre: Collectibles

Description: Curio Cards is the First Art NFT project on Ethereum, launched as an online gallery art show on May 9, 2017. Curio used the distributed network Ethereum to create a new model for creation and ownership of digital artwork — a model that allows digital artists to create unique pieces of rare collectible art, get directly paid for their work, and interact with collectors in entirely new ways. Today, this has become an entire field of digital art popularly known as NFTs. Curio Cards is a collection of digital art numbered from 1 to 30, featuring artwork from seven different artists. Each numbered series has unique artwork and a fixed supply of digital prints, ranging in supply from 111 to 2154 Cards. There are a total of 29.7k Cards, with an estimated 4k currently lost or destroyed. All Curio Cards were created in 2017, and no more can ever be created.

"I used to put these logos on neighborhood ATMs. Repurposing banking materials has remained a theme in my work. I like the idea of using soon-to-be extinct items to help spread the new cryptocurrency movement." - Cryptograffiti
