Introduction

Ubiq is proud to present the launch of CHIMP: The On-Chain Image Manipulation Program.

CHIMP allows you to mint an ERC721 token of pixel art that you create. It all lives on-chain. No IPFS or centralized JPEG hosting is require. Your pixel art will survive as long as the Ubiq network is alive.

CHIMP is a 16x16 pixel image constrained to 4 colors for efficient storage.

The cost to mint is 25 UBQ which gets sent to the Burner address.

CHIMP is a Ubiq fork of https://twitter.com/CHIMPeth launched with permission from the developer.

You can view a PNG version of your pixel art by using the /chimp command in the #bot-playground channel of Discord. You can also get the original on-chain SVG version by saving it from the browser after you Mint or by visiting our Ubiq NFT Utilities page.

We successfully beta tested CHIMP to our internal nCeption holders channel and we are pleased with the early art work created. Our goal is to have more NFTs and NFT collections so that we can have a nice marketplace with various things like CHIMPs.

Launch

You can create and mint a CHIMP now via:

https://chimp.ubiqsmart.com/

This is an open minting process and there are no limits to the number of CHIMPs that can be minted.
