Genetic Chain
3 min readApr 9, 2022

One of the core tenets behind Genetic Chain and any project that we work on is Community. We’re thankful to have a positive, caring, and unbelievably creative community to help support artists we’re working with and fun advancements in the digital art world that we’re trying to spearhead. With that said, we’re proud to announce that one of the most creative community-derived projects we’ve had the pleasure of working on is ready to launch: Crusties!

🍤

Crusties is a feel-good project centered around 8,000 unique pixel-shrimp NFTs. The team working on Crusties has been busy creating an impressive (shrimp) cocktail of art, events, interactive elements, and merch centered around the cute crustaceans. Take a peak at the Crusties site where we’ve got a roadmap that includes: A burn event that will require a few Crusties to participate; an already developed Crusties racing game; a mutation event; and so much more! We’re looking forward to welcoming more members to our trusty Crustie community.
