90s Kids NFT – Skate Culture in Web3

What is the 90s Kids NFT Collection?

The 90s Kids NFT collection is a collection of 9999 skate culture NFTs, inspired by the nineties and noughties. The collection is colorful and nostalgic, featuring four different ‘types’ of 90s kids NFT. These types are ‘Coffee Cup’ (common, 5476 NFT have this type), then ‘Traffic Cone’, ‘Key Set’, and ‘VX’ (1500 of each of these types). These are the first four characters to exist in the 90s kids universe!

FVCKRENDER and Gab Jetski created the NFT collection (more on that below!). 90s kids mint began on December 16th, 2022, for 0.05ETH, and sold out within 24 hours. As of mid-january 2023, the collection has a 369 ETH total volume and a floor price of 0.02 ETH.

At it’s core, 90s Kids NFT collection is a nostalgic, story-telling digital collectible. With plans to release new characters monthly, a clothing brand inspired by the characters, and IRL contests and meet-ups, it seems that 90s kids is bringing skate-culture to the metaverse.

Does the 90s Kids NFT Collection Have a Roadmap?

As a brand incorporating story-telling and sub-cultures, their roadmap is exciting and expansive! the 90s Kids discord states that: ‘We want to build a token gated web 3 skate club that will redistribute % of the royalties and profits to active members of our community and skateboarders.’

90s Kids Digital Skate Club

This digital skate club has a lot planned for the future. To begin, the brand will release new characters monthly. Holders with a full set of the OG collection (Cone, Keyset, VX, and Coffee Cup) will be able to burn one of these OG NFTs to redeem a new character. Additionally, the limited edition characters may have some extra redemption perks. Following the first drops, there will be discounted NFTs for whale holders (holder of 5 or 10 NFTs or more). Furthermore, holders who have both a 90s Kid NFT and a FVCK_CRYSTAL or FVCK_AVATAR, can stake their NFTs. By staking their NFT inside LVCIDIA, holders gain weekly resources.

One key part of the 90s Kids utility is the clothing brand. The founders plan to build a clothing brand inspired by the characters, and create ‘immersive storylines’ around the characters. Their plan outlines working with notable brands and figures for seasonal merch drops, including t-shirts, hats, hoodies, pants, and of course – skateboard accessories. Holders will have early access to these merch drops and a holder discount.

Finally, the NFT brand will also hold many IRL and remote events. Monthly contests will include a skate contest and an art contest. The art contest is especially important, as the creators will provide a base model for artists to work with, and the winner will take home a cash prize! The IRL events will look like skate contests, art shows, and more, at large NFT events such as NFT NYC.

To clarify – January 28 is the date of the first skate contest. We can expect to see physical merch in March or April of 2023.

Who Created the 90s Kids NFT Collection?

There are two creators of the 90s Kids NFT collection –FVCKRENDER and Gabriel Jetski. The duo state that the idea goes way back, to when they were both ’10 years old, skating in parks, listening to gangstarr on their iPods’. Through their collection, the artists want to recreate that nostalgic feeling of being kicked out of their skate spots, wrecking their ankles on the stairs, playing tech deck, and easy Subway. Therefore, this is a brand born of a love for skateboarding and a love for art. Speaking on why they created 90s Kids, Gab Jetski says: “Being both artists, we have an interest in beautiful things and creation. That’s why we created 90’s kids.”

Who is FVCKRENDER?
