21/03/2023 This New NFT Might Just Be Your Ticket to Indonesia

Buy a Non Fungible Token, get barrelled

Thought the NFT craze died during the last crypto crash?

Not so fast.

A group of Brazilian surfers recently came together to create the “Surf Junkie Club”, an online club that’s joined by purchasing an original piece of artwork (starting at $40) by artist Marcello Serpa. Once in, you’ll have access to exclusive experiences and/or products, which they call “drops”. The drops include: A jet-ski ride at XXL NazarĂ©, a trip to the Mentawai Islands, an “air-clinic” at a wave pool, A Pyzel surfboard, Billabong products, so on and so forth. The drops can be purchased and redeemed by members for the listed experience/product, or re-sold to non-members on an NFT marketplace like OpenSea. They already have some big-name pro surfers involved, including Caio Ibelli, Carlos Burle, Bella Nalu, and Caio Ibelli.

According to the website, “As per the contract, the club will only have 4 thousand membership cards. In a world with 40,000,000 surfers, only .01% will have access to the Surf Junkie Club. Imagine the value of each membership card if 100 thousand surfers want a spot in the club?”

Wishful thinking? Probably. But in the world of crypto, anything is possible.

CryptoKitties
*hissing noises*! I'm Kitty #447945. I've never told anyone this, but I once bit a dog. In my free time, I can usually be found voluptuous or reading Danielle Steele. We can be friends, but keep the ultra purrsonal stuff to yourself, please.
The Harvest
An anthropomorphic figure stands, wide eyed, staring at the viewer; its body masculine, muscular, and humanoid. Its “mind” dissociates into a conglomerate of structures resembling feathers, grain, teeth–as well as a radial flower “node”, casting linear rays throughout the composition. To his left, a vat of bodies gesture and writhe in a kind of amniotic soup, attended by a video game robot. The bot's red display reads “uWu”. Behind the robot and filling the left side of the composition is an archaic figure composed of a variety of vintage objects and symbols. Among them are a hardbound book with ancient cuneiform scripts, indicating barley, beer, bread, ox, house, and sky, behind which is a grimacing, salivating jagged toothed maw; and an old Commodore floppy drive. The figure’s head tilts toward an illuminated crescent moon, suggesting the Egyptian Sacred Bull. The archaic figure is composed of a variety of mutating cells, which shift in color, and pattern; eventually breaking free into an ephemeral broadcast of bubbles which move across the background. The work came into being against a psychological introspection, which included associations to pop culture such as alien abduction and pod people, as well as quite a bit of reflection on grains as a symbol of civilization, agriculture, sustenance, life, and imbibing (mainly whiskies).

The Switch
The Switch is a unique, “one of one” NFT that demonstrates the evolution of artwork in the digital realm. The Switch is developed to change form at a specific point of time in the future, known by Pak. The evolution is determined and rendered immutable by smart contracts, or self-executing code on the Ethereum blockchain.
