New DAO Member: Flamingo 🦩

We were honoured and excited to have the great folks from Flamingo show their support by joining the DAO.

”In the dynamic world of innovative movements in generative art, there's one standout: Chromie Squiggles. The journey of Squiggles requires visionary leadership. At Flamingo, we're pleased to stand behind one of those leaders: SquiggleDAO

As a testament to this tech-cultural shift, SquiggleDAO is building a vibrant community of artists, collectors, and enthusiasts - shepherding a generational movement.
Snowfro lit the spark when he brought his creation to life on chain, SquiggleDAO is fanning the flames, and now we are stepping up to be part of the community that will elevate the Chromie Squiggle to its rightful place in culture as a beloved and seminal art project.”

First Ever 3-Year Squiggle Loan

Squiggle history was made when the first ever 3-year loan was made using a Squiggle as collateral.

Squiggles are not even 3 years old yet as an art collection 🤯 (they turn 3 on Nov 27). The loan was made using Gondi and the borrower was a SquiggleDAO Member!

This loan activity even caught the mainstream attention of the people at Forbes! They wrote about it in their article, “NFTs Are Retaining Value, Researchers Say,” that was published November 10th, 2023.

SquiggleDAO x 9dcc Skateboard Video

We collaborated with our friends over at 9dcc and produced a new skateboard video featuring our new holographic SquiggleDAO NFT skateboard design and the 9dcc Iteration-02 Shirt.

As part of the collaboration, we also raffled off 2 Squiggle Skateboards and 1 Iteration-02 Shirt to community members.

New Squiggle Trait: Ghosts

This year on Halloween we released a new “Community Experience” Trait: Ghosts. The timely release was made on Twitter/X in the form of a spooky ghost story.

Ghosts are ribbed squiggles with a segment color above 252 and above. They are called ghosts because they are almost invisible. The perfect variety have a segment color that completely blends into the background.

Check them all out on our Squiggle Trait Explorer

Inaugural Squiggle Shootout Was a Hit

We held our first "Squiggle Shootout" where our community came out on discord and had some fun pitting Squiggles against each other.

Our inaugural winner hotdogjones took home the prize (A Squiggle Skateboard 🛹👀) when they pulled Squiggle #6201 in the finals.

Huge shoutout to community member CAPO for providing great live commentary and the whole community for showing up and having some good ol' fashioned fun with Squiggles!

Don’t miss our next one happening soon!
