Secret sauce of Normies:
1. Public API
2. fully on-chain collection
3. Simple yet well structured mechanisms
4. Normies holders, community, builders
These 4 points is the reason Normies are doing good and will keep doing good over time.
Let me break it down:
Public API with more than 25 end points gave not only holders but literally everyone to build on top of Normies. 60 useful apps/tools wouldn't be built without NormiesAPI. And to be clear, we as creators of Normies wouldn't be able to have these ideas to build. People had ideas, we had API, they built what their ideas.
Being fully on-chain is not only a culture but it also gives opportunity for us to leave a permanent mark on blockchain. I won't deep dive into technical part of "fully on-chain" but short story long: As long as Ethereum is live, Normies will be live. No server, no IPFS, no centralized storage. All data written on the blockchain directly. This will allow us to build ERC 8004 agentic future for Normies easily.
Normies is designed to "build together, on public" mindset. As we mentioned before launching Normies, we have Canvas that gives brush to every holder. You don't have to burn thousands of Normies to customize. You can just burn one and start doing it. Collection is curated by collectors, fully on-chain interactions and permanent. Simplicity of Normies opens a lot of doors for creativity. You can just buy black and white mosaics and build your physical Normie. You can cut a stencil of your Normie and with only two spray paints, you can go out and be the "street artist".
Community, i will go bold here: Strong af, active af and creative af. Thanks to our holders' feedback we built our very own custom Rarity Tool. Thanks to their ideas, time and creativity they built 60 tools, apps, games that keeps Normies living, interactive and breathing collection.
TL;DR
Normies started with a sparkle and wind is there to make that creative, collective fire bigger. As long as Ethereum blockchain is live, Normies will only grow.
I saw many people sold early, missed mint and feeling "sidelined" and chasing the next big thing, minting jpegs and flipping in an hour and repeating the process.
Probably you are still early for Normies considering what's coming next. We need holders with conviction, we need builders to expand our vision, we need artists to create new canvases.
We are all Normies,
Let's build together.
