CryptoAngels NFT Collection by Trevor Jones: From Archangels to Ordinals
As expected, Trevor Jones has announced with much excitement his latest collection, CryptoAngels, marking a new chapter in the world of digital art related to the blockchain.
Known for his works celebrating Bitcoin, Jones inaugurated this collection with a preliminary phase called Archangelssold for 87.9 ETH ($335,291).
These collector’s boxes included a physical bronze sculpture representing the classic The Bitcoin Angela 3D NFT avatar and an Ordinal Archangel, all of which sold out quickly.
On August 7, the second phase of the collection will be launched, and will be available to mint via OrdinalsBotIt consists of 7,777 CryptoAngels unique in appearance, each personally named by Jones and initially accessible through a whitelist.
Based on the constellation symbols on their shields, the CryptoAngels were divided into 21 cohorts, each correlated to one of the Archangel Collectors from the previous phase. Thus creating sub-communities within the collection.
Seven particularly special 1/1 CryptoAngels are not aligned with any Archangel, making them exceptionally rare.
Jones: “My tribute to the community”
Artist Trevor Jones said:
“Having been personally involved with Bitcoin since 2017, the ethics surrounding it quickly inspired me in my crypto art journey. I have followed the growth of Ordinals since its inception and the CryptoAngels collection is my tribute to a community that has welcomed me with open arms and given me the opportunity to bring my Bitcoin Angel design to the chain where it was always meant to be.”
In addition to the main collection, 21 angels are also available for minting at the special price of $7 on BaseFor a limited time.
Collectors will be able to play with these digital collectibles in the exclusive video game “Dante’s Pixel Inferno.”
