what's Curio Cards?
Curio Cards is the pioneering art NFT project on the Ethereum blockchain, launched on May 9, 2017, as an online gallery art show. It features 30 unique series of digital artworks from seven artists, with a total supply of approximately 29,700 cards across editions ranging from 111 to 2,154 prints each. The project introduced innovative models for digital art creation, ownership, and artist compensation, influencing standards like ERC-721 and ERC-1155. Cards include diverse styles such as stories, memes, cartoons, and animations, with some lost or destroyed over time. The collection tells interconnected stories through its cards, starting with the iconic "Apples" card as a creation symbol. It predates other landmark NFT projects like CryptoPunks and has been auctioned at prestigious venues like Christie's, highlighting its cultural significance in the NFT space. Ownership is tracked on-chain, allowing for trading on platforms like OpenSea, and the community engages via Discord for discussions and events.
Curio Cards recorded 20 sales in 24h, ranking 12th among top ETH NFT collections by sales volume.
