ZERO HERO #006: The Deployooor

Meet the founder of @bankr and /lp, @deployer.

When naturalists first brought specimens of a platypus back to Europe from Australia at the turn of the 19th Century, they were accused of fraud because nobody believed such an animal could exist... and that's how people feel today when they see how fast this onchain platypus ships.

(btw, if you manage to mint an extra one of these puppies, make sure you send one to a friend using bankr, which now supports NFT transfers as of last night!)

I gave @holakidd a brief and he just fucking killed it man

We were invited by @manifoldxyz as part of the most recent /blueprint cohort to do a partner drop using their platform and any of their edition types. I decided to try out their “Serendipity” pack drops and then came up with this ZERO HEROES concept. 

This particular edition type is fairly similar to party packs (which are great), but I do like that you can set the price on manifold packs to zero (platform fee only) so they are more accessible to more collectors. See how we go!

Why manifold over party? Party packs ded? 

Looking good!
