A Forgotten Chapter of NFT History
Born in 2019 — before the NFT boom.
The second 10,000-PFP project on Ethereum after CryptoPunks.
The second 10,000-PFP project on Ethereum after CryptoPunks.
CryptoSkulls emerged in early 2019, long before the world understood what NFTs would become. At a time when the Ethereum ecosystem was still experimental and the PFP genre barely existed, CryptoSkulls introduced one of the earliest large-scale digital identities on chain.
As the second 10,000-PFP collection ever created on Ethereum after CryptoPunks, the project stood at the frontier of early Web3 culture — expanding the idea of on-chain avatars beyond pixel characters and into the realm of digital artistry and lore.
What made CryptoSkulls truly ahead of its time was its vision for provable rarity, years before rarity tools became standard. The collection introduced the Uniqueness Index — an early prototype of systematic on-chain rarity ranking, designed to evaluate each Skull by traits, combinations, and pixel uniqueness. This idea would later influence how the entire NFT industry approached rarity modeling.
Today, CryptoSkulls stands as a historic on-chain artifact, preserved exactly as it was minted in 2019 — artwork, metadata, traits, rarity and identity stored immutably on Ethereum.
A relic of the pre-mainstream era.
A digital fossil of early Web3 creativity.
And one of the cornerstone pieces of NFT history.
