A few years ago, if someone asked you the monetary value of an
internet meme or Jack Dorsey’s first tweet, you’d have found it
strange. After all, what value can a mundane tweet or a meme hold?
But today, they can be worth thousands of dollars, thanks to
non-fungible tokens, a.k.a. NFTs. By creating on-chain, unique
representations of everyday things like music, art, videos, and
memes, NFTs catapulted their value from almost nothing to millions
of dollars. So naturally, the trend spread like wildfire, opening
new opportunities for artists and creative professionals across the
globe to gain recognition like never before. Artists can now claim
ownership of their work and make a sustainable living through NFTs.
From their supporters’ point of view, they get exclusive access to
their favorite artist’s work in the form of NFTs. As the NFT world
keeps evolving to different dimensions, we see the launch of new
NFT projects every single day. But one novel project that has the
potential to make a mark of its own in the NFT space is Shangangrs.
For Photographers by Photographers When compared to a regular NFT
project, Shabangrs has quite the unique approach to NFTs. For
starters, it is a photography-inspired collection of 10,000 NFTs
created in honor of photographers from across the globe. While
artists and creators have long been recognized in the NFT space,
photographers and their art are still on the back burner, and now,
Shabangrs aims to change that. But that’s not all. Alongside being
a futuristic NFT project, Shabangrs is also building a photography
metaverse called Shabangrsville. This ambitious project was
envisioned by the renowned photographer Peter Hurley who realized
that the next step in the evolution of photography was going to be
on the blockchain via NFTs. And Shabangrs is the first step in that
direction. The vibrant collection of 10,000 photography-inspired
NFTs brings the best of photography onto a single platform. Not
just photographers but anyone even remotely interested in
photography would be able to find and own a uniquely curated piece
of art. Everyone who owns an NFT on this platform is automatically
considered to be a citizen of Shabangrsville, giving them access to
the best photographers, creatives, and resources in the world.
Apart from this, these NFTs are dynamic in nature and come with
exclusive lifetime perks that the NFT owners can claim. These perks
include special offers, giveaways, access to official merchandise,
and headshot crew memberships. Users have the choice to choose
whether or not they want to claim the perk, where claiming the perk
reduces the rarity. In turn, the value of the NFT also decreases,
but the perks are worth the trade-off. However, if the user chooses
not to claim the perk, the value of the NFT and its rarity are
retained and can be sold on NFT marketplaces. The cherry on the
cake is that a percentage of all NFT sales will be directed towards
a charity that teaches photography to refugee children. An NFT
project like this could be truly revolutionary for the photography
space, recognizing the work of photographers and giving a platform
for them to truly shine. The project has a robust roadmap in place
to ensure speedy development and distribution of perks. When 25% of
the NFTs are sold, Shabangrs will donate $5000 to the United
Nations Association of Tampa Bay’s Picture My Life annual program.
And when the sales hit 50%, $10K will be donated to the same
program. Along with this, Rarity tools listing, OpenSea
verification, and the grand opening of Shabangrsville are planned
for the near future. Unleashing the NFT Power Within just a couple
of years, NFTs went from being a hidden part of blockchain
technology to taking the center stage in decentralized operations.
These digital diamonds have laid the path for the transformation of
the art, music, films, and the creative world as a whole with
revolutionary use-cases. Now, as Shanbangrs unleashes the power of
NFTs in the world of photography, the revolution that photographers
hoped for could unfold, taking the value of their art to the moon.
