What to Build

You'll be building a set of no less than 5 (but as high as 10K!) unique images which, together, form a collection of Uniqs (what we call NFTs in the Ultraverse).

Our community is engaged and interested in new utility for NFTs that they buy, so we encourage you to think about appending something special that users can do to each PFP project.
