what's Garbage Friends?
Garbage Friends is an NFT collection on Ethereum, representing the final stage (Stage 4) in an upcycling journey that transforms basic garbage bags through progressive evolutions into unique trash-themed characters. Created by Markus Magnusson (associated with Invisible Friends and Typical Friends), it emphasizes a playful, ironic aesthetic around waste and recycling, with mints often token-gated by holder status in related projects like Invisible Friends 2D or Typical Friends editions. The collection features mechanics like communal burns, floor sweeps funded by royalties, and utility extensions such as avatars for metaverses like Otherside. Holders benefit from community-driven initiatives, including Discord spaces, giveaways, and integrations that protect the floor price while fostering a "dumpster fire" culture of irreverent NFT vibes.
Garbage friends avatars are live at OthersideMeta.
