How does some guy with no art, programming or web3 skills go from 0 to creating a PFP art collection that redefines the whole genre? Let me share my story...

1/ In 2021, the NFT world took a thrilling leap into the mainstream—but something went wrong along the way. What began as a movement to empower creators and democratize art ownership soon got overshadowed. “monkey pictures,” “ponzi schemes,” and empty speculation marred the space, leaving the art sidelined.

2/ When everyone’s in it only for profit, the true potential of NFTs as a platform for revolutionary art gets lost. It’s easy to see why so many people turned away—no one wants to be the last to buy into something that doesn’t last.

3/ Could NFTs ever be about more than speculation? What if we could create art that resonates deeply, that makes people pause and appreciate its beauty, and not just see it as a financial asset? This question lingered as I explored the possibilities of NFT PFPs, a genre I had no intention of dismissing. The technology itself, these generative algorithms, are capable of beautiful, unexpected combinations—combinations that an artist would never think of by himself.

4/ For me, the journey started organically. I was a complete outsider to the art world, without training, just a drive to experiment and an open curiosity for what could be created with these algorithms. I just wanted to make something beautiful and uniquely meaningful. And somewhere in between self-teaching design software, discovering generative algos, and leaning on years of curiosity for digital tools, it clicked.
