Family of Popular NFT Projects Launch Collaborative Initiative and Genesis Collection

On Tuesday, a new Draper Goren Holm incubated company called NFT.FAMILY has announced the launch of a new generative non-fungible token (NFT) collection called “Boring Stone.” The new company stems from community members from Fameladysquad, Bored Ape Yacht Club, and Blockchain & Booze.

The members wholeheartedly believe that digital currencies and NFT communities are very important. A member of the team dubbed ‘Theehustlehouse’ explains that “Crypto is all about community.”

“We’re utilizing these new and exciting technologies to build and empower our own community,” Theehustlehouse detailed. “This is just the start; we can’t wait to bring more projects like this forward in the future.”

The collaborative effort has led to the first generative NFT Genesis collection called “Boring Stone,” which features BAYC artwork. The new NFT company further details that the Genesis collection is aimed at attracting the “broader NFT community.” The Boring Stone Genesis collection announcement adds:

　The Genesis collection is made up of 10,000 randomly generated NFTs, combining 7 trait categories and over 200 individual unique traits. Categories include the cover image, background, logo, headlines, and a number of easter eggs that when combined create a fun and engaging experience into the world of NFTs.

The crew of NFT community members explain that the pre-mint for BAYC owners starts on Tuesday at 8 a.m. (EST). The public minting will begin at 3 p.m. and Mike Shinoda of Linkin Park will join a Blockchain & Booze live show at 8 p.m. An hour later, the NFT reveal will take place during the networking session. The American singer, songwriter, rapper, and record producer Shinoda is a proponent of NFTs.
