The original NFT collection gains mainstream attention in 2021.

Origin & Impact

Though created in 2017, CryptoPunks exploded in value during 2021’s NFT boom. The 10,000 pixelated characters became the OG NFT collection, with rare punks selling for millions and celebrities adopting them as Twitter avatars.

Visa’s August 2021 purchase of a CryptoPunk for $150k signaled institutional acceptance of NFTs.
