CryptoPunk

CryptoPunk is a collection of 10,000 unique digital art pieces, each depicting a pixelated character created by the software developers Matt Hall and John Watkinson in 2017. These characters represent various traits, such as hairstyles and accessories, and are stored on the Ethereum blockchain, making them secure and easily verifiable as original creations. CryptoPunks are considered one of the first examples of Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs), which represent ownership of individual digital assets. Their rarity and artistic value have led to high demand and significant sales, making them a notable phenomenon in the art and cryptocurrency worlds.
