The Price of $COKE Up! (Axie Infinity Art Contest)
In August 2020, we launched a creative campaign around Origin Axie #2646, also known as “Cocaine Cowboy” ($COKE). Its NFT was fractionalized into fungible $COKE shards through NIFTEX, and the entire NFT community was invited to create artworks and memes in return for $COKE.
The results exceeded all expectations, as outlined in this article, “The Story of cloudwhite and $COKE.” Cocaine Cowboy has since found itself in dozens of pieces of crypto art, and reached an evaluation as high as 31.63 $ETH ($12,272.44) on the NIFTEX exchange.
Today, we’re excited to announce our next Cocaine Cowboy ($COKE) crypto art contest! Your Cocaine Cowboy ($COKE) crypto art must meet the following criteria:
- Create a work of artwork that features Cocaine Cowboy, $COKE. Cocaine Cowboy can be incorporated in the literal sense or simply used as a theme/inspiration. Be creative. Push boundaries. Cocaine Cowboy model positions/expressions can be found here (Get Axie Image “2646”).
- Must be minted on Rarible, SuperRare, KnownOrigin, MakersPlace, Async, or InfiNFT before the 10/31, 11:59pm (CST) deadline.
- The description/properties fields must include: Cocaine Cowboy, $COKE, Axie Infinity Fan Art, AxieInfinity.com, marketplace.axieinfinity.com/axie/2646, NIFTEX.com, niftex.com/fullExchange/COKE.
