Profile Pic (PFP) NFTs have taken the world by storm!
The hexagon is the new blue check.

People — from degens to CEOs, are identifying with their favorite NFT.
So, what could be more compelling than excellent Generative PFPs?

Genergizable PFPs! Enter, Particlon

Particlon

Particlon is a generative collection of 10,069 PFPs distributed across 4 species, from 3 planets.

On April 14th, the Particlons were revealed!
These are the first generative NFT collection that is Energizable — meaning each Particlon NFT can contain assets within it.

Buy a Particlon — what’s inside? Sell a Particlon — assets included!

Upon mint, Particlon’s were endowed with Particlon Utility Tokens, ($PUT). As VASI, the team behind Particlon have said,

$PUT will be used to acquire additional in-game assets and may be used in additional ways in the ecosystem.

As the first-of-it’s-kind, this is an experiment in action — the proof will be in the ‘PUTing’. People are now viewing their multi-planetary space-age PPFs on our Dapp, including viewing/charging/discharging embedded assets.

Particlon, Particles, & PFPs

Particlon is the jewel in the crown of applications built upon Charged Particles. The ‘Charged Universe’ to continues to expand multi-dimensionally, across music, gaming, finance, DAOs, and PFPs.

While Particlon is the first Genergizable PFP project, already other nascent projects are showing interest. In the increasingly competitive NFT landscape, adding functionality to your collection is certainly a stellar way to stand out!

That said, there’s something about orginals, OGs, GOATs… and that will always be Particlon!

About Charged Particles

Charged Particles is a protocol that allows users to deposit ERC-20, ERC-721, and ERC-1155 tokens into NFTs. A scarce NFT (e.g. Art, Collectible, Virtual Real Estate, In-Game Item, etc.) can now be transformed into a basket holding a number of other tokens. The Principal amount can be time-locked inside the NFT, and through integration with Aave’s aTokens, the programmable yield from these DeFi yield-generating assets is just a few clicks away.
