A total of 87 different attributes and 159 colors are found in the collection, which will also be taken into account when making the jewelry. Each piece will use at least 30 gemstones and/or diamonds to create a custom design. Owners will also receive a digital rendering of the pendant and a certificate of authenticity.

Digital renderings of the pieces will be available by October 2022, customers will not be able to participate in the design process. The expected delivery of the physical good is early 2023.

The campaign was initiated by Tiffany’s vice president Alexandre Arnault, who owns CryptoPunk #3167.

CryptoPunks is one of the first NFT collections on the Ethereum blockchain. It was launched in June 2017 by Larva Labs and purchased by Yuga Labs in 2022. The collection consists of 10 000 NFTs in the form of 24×24 pixel art images of people. As of August 1, the minimum price per token is 25 ETH (~$42 278).

In June, representatives of the South Korean cryptocurrency exchange Korbit issued employee identification cards (IDs) in the form of non-fungible tokens, inspired by NFTs from the CryptoPunks collection.
