what's The Funny Guys?
The Funny Guys is a crypto entity dedicated to advancing the digital art and NFT ecosystem, particularly on the Tezos blockchain. They have been instrumental in developing platforms that enable generative art creation and collection, such as Fxhash, which launched in late 2021 and has grown to support over 980,000 tokens minted in its first eight months. Their work emphasizes low-friction onboarding for collectors and artists, fostering a global community through features like on-chain minting, fiat/ETH payments, and cross-chain compatibility with Ethereum. In recent years, The Funny Guys has expanded into new marketplaces like Raster, a simple yet powerful platform for acquiring digital art, incubated by Le Random. This initiative aims to scale the ecosystem by reducing complexity for users, allowing thousands of artists to sustain their craft while attracting hundreds of thousands of collectors. Their efforts include collaborations with artists and projects, such as exhibitions and tokenization of artworks, highlighting a commitment to innovation in blockchain-based art without high gas fees. Overall, The Funny Guys focuses on creating accessible tools for the generative art space, bridging Tezos and other chains to promote diversity and growth in digital collecting. By distilling technical complexities into user-friendly products, they contribute to a vibrant, inclusive on-chain art world.
