Punk Identity: Your Soulbound Self
Why your digital identity should be earned, not bought
The Problem With NFTs Today
| Typical NFTs | What Goes Wrong |
|---|---|
| Buy, flip, dump | Pure speculation |
| Anonymous ownership | Rug-pullers hide |
| Transferable status | Whales buy reputation |
| Profile picture flex | No real meaning |
Punk Seed: A Different Approach
Your Punk Seed is a soulbound NFT — it cannot be sold, transferred, or traded. Ever.
What "Soulbound" Means
- Tied to YOU — One per verified human
- Grows with you — Your actions, contributions, reputation
- Cannot be faked — Cryptographically proven
- Cannot be bought — No shortcuts to status
How You Get One
- Connect wallet (SIWE — Sign In With Ethereum)
- Verify you're human (not a bot farm)
- Punk Seed mints automatically
- It's yours. Forever. Non-transferable.
Why Artists Should Care
Think of it as your signature that can't be forged:
- Collectors know YOU are YOU
- Your body of work is provably yours
- Reputation follows across platforms
- Nobody can impersonate your legacy
Consent Beads
Beyond your Punk Seed, you earn Consent Beads (ERC-1155 tokens) for:
- Milestones reached
- Contributions made
- Communities joined
- Quests completed
These track your journey. Your story. Your proof of participation.
The Philosophy
In a world of sellouts, your identity stays soulbound.
| Old Model | Punk Model |
|---|---|
| Buy followers | Earn reputation |
| Fake credentials | Provable history |
| Identity theft risk | Cryptographically secured |
| Status for sale | Status through merit |
Your identity. Your reputation. Your soul. Not for sale.
