Jamie Thingelstad

I have wanted to create my own “ink” on Nifty.Ink and my artistic capabilities are pretty limited. My one talent is block lettering. I also want to keep doing things to support Ukraine, so let’s raise $1,000 to donate directly to Ukraine via crypto.

I’ve minted 50 copies of Support Ukraine hand drawn by me, thingelstad.eth! You can even watch it being drawn by hitting the play button!

Each copy is $10, and I will match that and contribute $20 to Ukraine. If we sell all 50 of these, we’ll raise $1,000!

You get a cool NFT to keep, and we can do a little bit more to support Ukraine in their fight to keep their freedom! 🇺🇦

Notes

1. Nifty.Ink runs on the Gnosis blockchain. You will need to connect to it via MetaMask and you will need xDai on Gnosis to purcahse.
2. I’m gifting this image to some family members and others. For those, I will cover the full $20 donation.
3. I will send the funds to Ukraine via a different blockchain, likely Solana. I will post the transaction here as proof when completed.

I recently discovered the work of Cats Will Eat You, a Minnesota artist who has created and published a new, original piece of art every day for the last 15 years. To do anything for 15 years is incredible, but to push your creativity in this way is truly remarkable and impressive. I knew right away I wanted to own a piece in this wide ranging collection and Cats Will Eat You has been minting some of his art as an NFT. I’m now the proud owner of “ring rang rung”.

I liked the art as well as the communication metaphors embedded in it. You can also use Artivive and see the creation process. The artist also let me know that “ring rang rung” was featured in the 2022 SXSW NFT Gallery.

I have been very impressed with all the innovations the Famous Fox Federation has done. I suspect the continued growth in the “floor price” is a reflection of that.
