The collection will feature generative art NFTs placed on a 12x12 grid, which serves as “a visual allegory for the cartography of data on the Bitcoin blockchain.” It will include 3D elements as well as hand-drawn features, Yuga Labs said.

Yuga Labs said that this new collection does not extend utility or any affiliation to its current Ethereum ETH/USD based collections.

"We understand that all of these choices may come as a surprise. But, at the end of the day, sometimes you just have to break the mold and f**k doing expected thing," said Greg Solano, co-founder of Yuga Labs, in a blog post.

Price Action: At the time of writing, BTC was trading at $23,407, up 0.02% in the last 24 hours, according to Benzinga Pro.
