News and Updates

Gnars on a Layer 2 Network?

We’re currently exploring the possibility of migrating some of our operations from the Ethereum mainnet to a Layer 2 network such as Polygon, Arbitrum, or Optimism. This move has the potential to enhance accessibility of That’s Gnarly drops, Gnars auctions, and reduce overall transaction costs for the community. We value everyone’s opinion and would like to hear from you regarding which network you believe would be the best fit, if any. Your feedback and insights are invaluable to us so please hop in our discord and share your thoughts!

FOMO Gnars / Gnars Block Party anyone?

Some of you may have heard about FOMO Nouns, the game we play every day on the Noun O’Clock show hosted by The Noun Square, or Lil Block Party over at Lil Nouns. These awesome tools show a preview of what the next NFT to be minted would look like if the auction was settled at that time. We want to hear what creative name ideas you come up with for a Gnars version! Check out the thread on twitter or drop your thoughts in discord!

That’s Gnarly Updates

Drops on That’s Gnarly will now be open to mint for a full week. With the increase in gas as of late, the hope is that this provides a more accessible minting experience. Whether you happen to be away from the computer for a day or gas is prohibitively expensive, this change should provide more people the ability to mint these gnarly editions. The Collective team has also deployed upgraded contracts! These revised contracts should also see significant gas savings. In addition, as mentioned above That’s Gnarly is also considering moving to an L2. Again, we really want to hear thoughts and feedback from the community!

Gnars are a new way to fund extreme athletes

We prefer a world where kids aren’t sold energy drinks by their heroes. So as a community of action sports enthusiasts, we’ve formed a DAO to rethink how extreme athletes get sponsored.

Gnars are NFTs on the Ethereum blockchain

Based on Nouns open source and CC0 artwork, they’re stored fully on-chain with no external dependencies. Each one gets you a DAO vote and memberships are available at auction, forever.

Gnars are dedicated to supporting the artistry of extreme athletes
