Oh Whale has officially launched its first NFT collection, Oh Whale Originals, now live on OpenSea. This ocean-themed initiative pairs beautiful, collectible digital art with real-world support for ocean protection. While fostering appreciation for Big Bend, the project’s ultimate goal is to create distinctive digital assets that help establish a community-led funding source for conservation.
Oh Whale Originals: Design and Rarity
Each Oh Whale Original NFT has a hand-drawn whale with individual characteristics that make each of them unique, including different levels of rarity. The whole collection features a unique three-tier rarity structure with 10 ultra-rare 1-of-1 legendaries. These NFTs serve both as valuable collectible assets and fungible tokens that allow holders access into Oh Whale’s larger ecosystem.
The special designs and rarity levels of each NFT add to their desirability for collectors. Beyond that, Oh Whale has built such a comprehensive ecosystem around these NFTs that purpose and value is on another level.
Integration and Utility
Currently, Oh Whale is rolling Oh Whale Originals into Oh Whale’s existing platforms. This extends to their best-selling Ocean Legends and its Telegram-based community engagement and customer referral program. This integration opens up new uses for the NFTs, turning them from simple collectibles into powerful tools for community participants. Related benefits include access to exclusive features and opportunities within the Oh Whale ecosystem.
Oh Whale uses NFTs to create cross-chain, community-based revenue generation and distribution ecosystems. Essentially, this approach guarantees that digital assets deliver tangible value and have meaningful use cases for their holders. This user-centered design approach increases user engagement and develops a more committed community around the project.
Commitment to Ocean Conservation
A large part of the profit we make from Oh Whale Originals goes right back into protecting the ocean. More directly, 33% of all primary revenue from NFTs sold is dedicated to ocean-centric verified NGOs. This commitment is a perfect fit with Oh Whale’s work to get more money into environmental causes using creative funding models.
Together, and with this initiative, we hope to demonstrate Oh Whale’s deep commitment to transparency and community-driven conservation funding. Through the purchase of these Oh Whale Original NFTs, collectors take an active role in helping protect and preserve our oceans.
