A generative art collection where each piece is a Zora content coin, created by participants via the $np1 Zora page
When a new artwork is created, a coin is launched on Zora paired with $np1 you earn trading fees on the coin.
Each coin is both an expression and a link in the network.
Together, these coins form a permanent, visual record of participation.

np1 is a networked generative artwork. Each piece is a visual expression, minted as a Zora content connection coin, linked to the expanding network and the broader artwork.
When you create a piece on np1, you're generating a new artwork and a coin is launched on Zora via the np1 account. You are designated as the creator and your address is used to inform the artwork that gets created, along with the previous coin's creator. Your piece becomes a permanent part of the visual and economic network.
Every connection coin produces its own visual field, built from onchain data. The two main colors in each piece come from two addresses:
Between them is a space, a gap of meaning and data, that the canvas resolves through the system finding a path between the two colors, creating a gradient as the foundation for the piece.
From there, the system distills that gradient down through multiple passes of compression, noise, and re‑sampling. Each pass abstracts the original connection a little more, layering the visual until it reaches a final form, a dense surface where identity, time, and relation have been merged into color.
Each color represents participation. Addresses are translated into hues, creating a spectrum of human and system interactions. Over time, as more coins are created, the palette of the network becomes richer as a visual archive of every address that has contributed to np1.
This makes the artwork both personal and collective. Your address leaves a trace, but only in relation to those who came before.
Each connection coin’s image is fixed once created, but the network view, the larger composition, the visual archive of the network, evolves every time a new coin is added. New colors, new network paths, new relationships.
The network is both visual and economic. Every piece has a coin, and coins connect through LP pairings, fees, and an onchain registry. The links between coins reflect lineage, attention, and participation across the system.
Participation is not passive. When you create, you are changing the shape of the network permanently. You are contributing a new node, a new color, a new record of presence. In np1, the art does not exist until you decide to make it.
All coins get posted to the np1 Zora account and all coins are paired with the $np1 creator coin.
$np1 is the root of the system as the creator coin. Every connection coin is paired with it, forming liquidity that links each new piece back to the origin.
These pairings create actual bridges between tokens. $np1 is not just a symbol of the network, it is the material that binds it together.
As more people participate, more liquidity flows through $np1. It becomes a visual and economic record of collective activity and a base layer of belief.
The creation fee is dynamic and determined by the Base network. It consists of two parts:
Each new coin adds its deployment cost to the base fee, which then slowly decays over time. This encourages natural pacing between creations.
Example: If the base fee is 0.0001 eth and a new coin is created, the new base fee and the next coin's deployment cost will be 0.0001 eth + deployment cost. The base fee will then decay at 0.1% per hour.
Once received, the creation fee is divided as follows:
The $ripe and $np1 purchased from this fee are added to the existing $ripe/$np1 liquidity pool. This deepens the liquidity links that bind the network together.
Trading fees on each coin are split 50% to the coin's creator and 50% to the np1 protocol. For current trading fee details on Zora coins, please refer to the official Zora docs: Zora fee documentation.
The protocol's portion of the connection coin's trading fee is used to buy and burn $np1.
