Genesis project of 121 NFTs by Icebreaker.

Icebreaker is for builders who share a passion for creating a better and fairer internet by reclaiming ownership over our data.

Launched 3-2-23 @ 32k ft for ETHDenver. All 2.12% royalties go to givecrypto.org.

Protobreaker

We experimented at ETH Denver by dropping our collection of 121 unique Protobreaker NFTs to builders.

We used Merlin on L1, all while covering gas for minters. These NFTs will play a key role in our ecosystem.

Fun fact: there are 59 owners of Protobreakers on Farcaster!

For our next experiment, we didn’t want to cover expensive L1 gas again so we migrated to Optimism and distributed 39 commemorative NFT NYC 2023 Icebreaker NFTs

That brings us to today. 

We know how powerful it is to share an NFT IRL and our experiments have only solidified our thesis. 

We’ve started distributing Merlin Minters on Polygon to a few Protobreakers including @dawufi & @tldr 

Find dawufi to mint his card! 😎

We are excited about people easily exchanging rich data through NFTs to build deeper connections with a collectible aspect! Imagine collecting a certain “era” card of someone who becomes prominent later. More primitives to come 👀

.@j4ck.eth struggled with this at Art Basel in 2022 trying to give out his art NFTs, then experienced a magical IRL mint at @brightmoments. 

They couldn’t share contracts so we took it upon ourselves to build an open-source version, which you can find here: https://github.com/icebreakerlabs/merlin
