Samantha Rogan, known as CryptoStacy’s, started from 0 and began producing digital art NFTs as a side hobby that allowed her to explore technology through her passion for drawing. This month she celebrated over 1000 Ethereum in trading volume and sold over $2 million in digital NFT art.

“I had always seen this as a new and fun way to combine art and technology; I never dreamed it would take off,” said CryptoStacys.

Non-fungible tokens, or NFTs, are a type of digital signature that lives on a blockchain that acts as a unique identifier for a file such as music or photos. It allows digital artists to create a “signature” of ownership for their work in the same way that traditional artists do.

CryptoStacy’s Hunny’s is a collection of 10,000 NFTs that showcase different hand-drawn elements that are randomly combined to create unique characters. On 10 September 2021 Hunnythe collection is sold out.

Hunny’s is CryptoStacy’s second NFT collection. In March 2021, CryptoStacy’s created one of the earliest known female-led art projects on the blockchain (Stacys) named after her mother and featuring iconic female figures, making her a pioneer for women in the NFT industry.

Hunny’s is traded on the OpenSea.io website using the Ethereum blockchain. To own one Hunny gives the holder access to perks like early access to other NFT collections, free giveaways, art airdrops and the opportunity to join a thriving online community of others Hunny’s holders.

“One of the biggest things that separates Hunny’s from other NFT projects is our commitment to be part of this in the long term. We’ve been growing our community since very early on, and I’m dedicated to bridging the gap between the art world of today and tomorrow,” said CryptoStacy’s.

Since Hunny’s the collection is sold out, CryptoStacy’s has left his day job to pursue NFT-supported art full-time.

“I feel honored to be a part of this historic moment where artists around the world are given the opportunity to change their lives with the help of technology. Now we are looking for ways to grow and give back. This year we created an innovative blockchain-based store. with items that can be purchased with cryptocurrency to help expand the use of Ethereum. We are also launching free courses to allow other creators to build their own collections without expensive fees. We are currently developing a locker system that allows people to customize their NFTs with new clothing and accessories to truly represent who they want to be online. Ultimately, our goal is to make crypto a fun, open and exciting experience for everyone involved, not something mysterious or scary.”

Although there has been a recent drop in crypto prices as well as negative PR regarding NFTs, the community is stronger than ever and CryptoStacy’s not planning to leave anytime soon.

“I’m not worried about the challenges our society faces in the grand scheme of things. There will always be ups and downs with new technology, but we’re building something much deeper,” said CryptoStacy’s. “NFTs aren’t just a place for scammers, it’s also a place to make new friends, express yourself and discover people who really appreciate your work.”
