Welcome To #SMUFT :-)

#SMUFT is an open creative social experiment. We are creating the trashy, fun, lo-fi un-NFT. Follow the #SMUFT IFU and use the #SMUFT Blank. The first #SMUFTs are also on display. Cats, Dragon Unicorns, Lofi Pixel Adventures, and bean and cheese burritos are an intrinsic and fundamental part of #SMUFT culture. #SMUFT is low pressure - make something wild and creative and experimental (famous and not famous artists, writers, coders, musicians, and all else welcome). Tech should be less serious and more fun.

Why #SMUFT

#SMUFT are the punk, trashy, lo-fi, cool, hyper-creative, accessible-to-anyone, easy-to-make, easy-to-collect, strange, weird, Merry Prankster, energy friendly-ish, underground, indie counter-culture of that whole strange blockchain NFT thing going on. #SMUFT is a cold pizza in the morning. It is a pigeon in a parking lot at 6:01 am in the morning in NYC. It is a subway artist in Tokyo doing something cool. It is your first guitar. It is orange soda and fries. It is always a bean and cheese burrito. A #SMUFT has a value of 1 SNARGLE, which is currently within a $0.00 to $0.99 range (or a bean and cheese burrito). Be free and make a #SMUFT. We are the un-NFT.

Please use the official #SMUFT 2021 BLANK (1k x 1k pixels) and follow the #SMUFT Instructions For Use (IFU). Please submit your #SMUFT by posting it on twitter and linking to @rabovitz (yes this is janky but will get better). If the #SMUFT is on the template and has largely followed the pretty darn simple rules, it will be #SMUFT Legit. Your #SMUFT NUMBER is the last Legit #SMUFT posted +1. Your BIF CODE is reminiscent of odd banking and blockchain numbers (that make no sense to anyone) + your artist tag. We want you to make cool stuff and extend what #SMUFT are and what they can do. It is the un-NFT for the people, by the people.

Be cool. No racism or sexism and any of that hate crap. Not here, not anywhere.

Please be original and creative.

#SMUFT Philosophy

A #SMUFT is a Schrödinger's cat of sorts. It is a Super Mega Ultra Fungible Token. A fungible thing is meant to be the same and identical, as well as equivalent. Yet each #SMUFT is unique and has identity and quirkiness and individuality. Each #SMUFT has a face value of 1 SNARGLE, but yet can have an estimated value between $0.00 and $0.99 and/or a bean and cheese burrito. It is bounded yet unbounded and free to roam.

#SMUFT posits the common and accessible bean and cheese burrito as a global standard, vs. gold or the Satoshi. But it also introduces the mysterious and unknown SNARGLE, which may in itself possess quantum and sentient properties. The #SMUFT is philosophically strange. It is easy to make but impossible to perfect. #SMUFT encourages a DIY, handmade-dish ethic. Everyone can create and make stuff. #SMUFT perhaps can become the fundamental unit of the creator economy. The #SMUFT is at the bottom of the pyramid, not the top.

#SMUFT is by everyone, for everyone. It is also fun and ridiculous and does not take itself seriously :-)
