Alien + Crypto + Punk

"AMERICA'S MOST WANTED - ALIENS"

The Boring Stuff: I'm pretty sure (absolutely positive, actually) that our family talks about #art, #crypto, and #aliens just a bit more than the average household. And that's ok with us! We believe art is everywhere-and-everything, and ultimately, we are believers in and advocates of both technology and entrepreneurship. We support innovation, even during the early rough years and wild-west: There is no 'light switch' to instant global education and adoption. So we learn. And explore.

The Good Stuff: One evening my husband came home from the store and blasted through the door to announce with a rather intense tone, "AN ALIEN JUST SOLD FOR $11.75 MILLION DOLLARS!" he turned the corner eyes wide open, mouth agape. Now listen, I know we live in this wild new global sci-fi era where "nothing should suprise me", but my brain still instantly rejected the words my ears had registered. He continues, "Let's just go sit down so I can explain this NFT stuff!" which turned into several hours, and then several days. (I know you feel my pain, ladies!)

The NFT Parody: We're embracing a new challenge for 2021. The exclusive aim is to create our very first, homemade and handmade, NFT parody project together as a family, combining our skills to help each other learn and to hopefully create something not only really fun and really funny, but genuinely educational for others who still may be hesitant to expiriment with "Cryptocurrency Wallets" and NFT's.

LarvaLabs™ - CryptoPunks™ / Alien #7523

Please Explain Now: There's a small company in New York City called LarvaLabs™ which was founded by two super smart and creative tech guys, Matt and John. For a few decades they've operated their mobile software company making applications for iOS and Android devices and have worked extensively with both Google™ and Microsoft™ to name a few. On June 23, 2017 the team launched (minted) a new "digital art project" on the Ethereum Network called "Crypto Punks" -- a collection of 10,000 unique, computer-generated "digital characters" which are all 24x24 (size) 8-bit-style pixel-art images. Of the 10,000 Crypto Punks, there are only NINE [ 9 ] "Alien" Crypto Punks.They were all originally available online to the general public and free to claim. Now they sell for six, seven, and...eight figures!!! (Swallows hard, closes eyes, slowly leans back in chair.) Yes, eight figures: $11,754,000.00 U.S. Dollars.
