What Are Moonbirds?
Moonbirds is a collection of 10,000 NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) launched on April 16, 2022. Kevin Rose and the PROOF Collective created them. Each Moonbird grants private club membership with additional benefits that increase the longer the NFTs are held.
Background
Moonbirds is the creation of Kevin Rose, an American entrepreneur. Rose created Moonbirds as part of his recently established Proof Collective, a private members-only NFT collectors and artists collective.
How They Work
The 10,000 NFTs in the Moonbirds collection were released in three major parts. Initially, 2,000 NFTs were reserved for Proof Collective members, effectively granting two free NFTs for each member. Then, 7,875 NFTs were released to the general public via a whitelist, with potential collectors required to have 2.5 ETH in their registered wallet at the time of entry. The Proof Collective admins hold the remaining 125 Moonbirds NFTs for future collaborative, marketing, and other uses.
