Matto - Shinkai π (he/him)
@monkmatto
I'm thrilled to announce "Metta", launching as the first project on the groundbreaking platform @intrinsicdotart ! (minting 4/30/24) In Metta and on intrinsic, the traits are the ideas that empower the art, and it's the collectors who make each piece and can control the traits...

Metta will mint 256 ERC-721 tokens on @base network, but there's a ton more to it!

Traits are not infinite: every mint uses traits and pulls them from the available pool, allowing rarity to exist within the project. While this sort of parameter selection has been done before, http://intrinsic.art adds a mechanic that is completely novel - and exciting!

At any time, a Metta owner can 'reclaim' the traits from their token. This effectively burns the artwork and mints the owner tokens representing the ideas that powered the art - the traits. The most exciting part: these traits can be traded, remixed, and minted into new Metta!
