Our smart contract fetches each day’s price data from Chainlink Price Feeds, and uses that data to dynamically generate a musical NFT. Each one is unique because every day in the market is different. Unlike other NFT collections, Degen Blues requires no arbitrary hashes, and no randomness other than what the market provides. Music composed and synthesized entirely by code. Price data is algorithmically translated to musical notes, with the chord and scale chosen based on the market direction and volatility. Then the notes are synthesized entirely using oscillators and synths in web audio. This is robot music all the way from start to finish. Own a day in the history of Ethereum Each NFT represents a single day’s history on the blockchain. Which day will you choose? Wax nostalgic about ETH at $400. Relive the crypto crash of Jan 2022? Or just own your birthday. Each day is a 1/1 unique NFT so nobody owns it but you. From now until forever A new NFT will be generated at the end of each day at midnight UTC, based on that day’s price data. At that point it becomes immediately mintable via this site. The Degen Blues smart contract will continue to generate NFTs forever at a fixed rate of 1 per day. Mission Degen Blues was born from the desire to push the NFT world further and to create innovative forms of blockchain-native art. We took inspiration from projects such as Loot, Merge, and Fidenza. But our unique contribution is that Degen Blues uses meaningful external data rather than random hashes, and instead of being frozen in time at launch, the collection will continue evolving indefinitely. By minting a Degen Blues NFT, you become a genesis patron of the project, helping us advance our mission and conceptualize future projects. Some future possibilities we’re excited about: Music based on other tokens New types of data on chain (greenhouse gas levels, COVID genome data, etc) DAO to support data driven art
Chainlink is the industry standard for building, accessing, and selling oracle services needed to power hybrid smart contracts on any blockchain.
