Historical NFT Museum Series 7 - with Mooncats About The HNFT Museum highlights the work of 25+ NFT communities from 2011 to 2019 and is a community based initiative curated by the CryptoSkulls DAO. It is our responsibility to not only tell our Skull story but to also create a platform that gives our friends in other historical NFT communities a voice. We provide education both virtually & IRL and we welcome new collectors to learn about the history of NFTs and their provenance in one single portal. Mooncats MoonCats are a collection of 25,440 generative pixel art cats created on August 9th, 2017 on the Ethereum blockchain by the development team, ponderware. The first MoonCat (MoonCat #0) was minted a day later on August 10th, 2017 by ponderware. Nearly four years later on March 13th, 2021, Justin Trimble, Allen Henna, ETHHoard, and a several other NFT community members shared on Twitter that they had discovered an ancient contract that was the "2nd NFT on Ethereum", with nearly 20,000 free mints still available out of the 25,600 contract max. Within hours all of the free mints had been claimed and over 5,000 individual wallets had participated. This moment is often referred to as the MoonCat Rescue and is attributed with giving birth to the "NFT Archaeology" movement. Since then MoonCats has grown to over 7,000 unique owners, has accumulated nearly 30,000 ETH of total volume, and has been featured at auction houses such as Sotheby's.

Historical NFT Museum Series 3 - with NFT Historians: Leonidas and WhiteRabbit Monday 6th Feb at the Historical NFT Museum @hnftmuseum discussion on Historical NFTs. With special guests - NFT historians: @LeonidasNFT & @WRabbit1111 Hosted by Cryptoskulls dao CMs - Xoao & Quantum Historical NFTs paved the way for the current crypto art and collectibles market and the pioneers who created them laid the foundation for the current industry and should be acknowledged for their contributions. Historical NFTs not only hold value but also tell the story of our past and how technology has shaped our culture. We must preserve our digital history otherwise it may be lost forever. The magnitude of the moment that we are living through can not be overstated. Future historians will refer to events in terms of being before and after digital assets. Many HNFT collectors are holding future museum centerpieces without even knowing it. Preserving our cultural heritage for future generations is crucial. The Historical NFT museum - serves as a space where communities can collaborate and come together, sharing in this shared vision. Through seasonal exhibits and events, participants in this metaverse gallery can interact with each other creating stronger bonds within the NFT space. This showcase of art and history can then also be translated into real life gallery exhibits, creating a bridge between the traditional art world and web3.

Series 2 Guest - PridePunks POAP for HNFT Museum Pride Punks is a collection of 10,000 punk NFTs on the Ethereum blockchain, created by @DennisonBertram. Pride Punks were originally created as a celebration of CryptoPunks, Pride month, and a statement on the lack of inclusivity in web3. The original Pride Punk smart contract was created on June 23, 2018. It required that CryptoPunk holders wrap their NFT in the contract to mint a Pride Punk, but only two were minted. After digging up the contracts and building a secure wrapper that no longer requires holders to lock up their NFTs, Pride Punks relaunched in March of 2022 using the original MetaPunk smart contract from 2018. Pride Punks is not affiliated with Larva Labs. It is an entirely separate and unrelated derivative art project. This poap celebrates history of Pridepunks story in history of nfts.

Series 2 Guest - CryptoPunks V1 POAP for HNFT Museum Launched in June of 2017 by Larva Labs (IP acquired by Yuga Labs in 2022) CryptoPunks is one of the first NFT collections on the Ethereum blockchain. It consists of 10,000 unique 24×24 pixel art images. There are currently two versions of the CryptoPunks contract. “V1” is the term used to describe the original smart contract released by LarvaLabs on June 9th, 2017, and “V2” is the term used to describe the follow-up (or replacement) smart contract released by LarvaLabs on June 23, 2017, with Punks airdropped to the original V1 claimants. V2 are the “Official” CryptoPunks as recognized by Larva Labs - and later by Yuga Labs - and are the only Punks that currently retain any IP or other rights granted by Yuga Labs. This poap celebrates history of Cryptopunks story in history of nfts.

HNFT Museum - Historical NFT Series #1 - Punycodes Punycodes - May 10, 2011 [Namecoin] @Punycodes2011 HNFT Museum is a proud collaborator and partner with Punycodes and interviewing the first series on 23/01/2023 with Punycodes to explore and capture their history and story within the NFT historical timeline. Punycodes ("Punys") are considered by many to be the first art NFTs. They are a community curated collection of texts, symbols, emojis, and ASCII art minted as on-chain domain names on the Namecoin blockchain starting in 2011. Punycodes illustrate the innate human desire to leverage blockchain technologies to create and own pieces of art. All Punycodes are represented by their distinguishing "xn--" prefix. They employ special encoding to convert Unicode characters to ASCII, a subset style representation that requires a decoder to see the contained art. There is also a separate Punycodes collection found on the Emercoin blockchain (a fork of Namecoin blockchain) with a similar technical and artistic pattern of Namecoin Punycodes. The Twitter rediscovery happened in mid January 2022 and these assets were quickly claimed in a fair manner. [6] This has ensured a healthy holder distribution for Punycodes and resulted in a significant number of collectors holding them. Punycodes DAO expresses its respect for artists and creators, and wants to recognize original Punycodes creators for the true pioneers they are.
