Dear Algorand,
When I first started this NFT project, it was called AlgoRanter. I got help from a friend back in 2022 to write a script that could generate images with layered traits.
I used Paint 3D and stock art. That's it. That's what I had.
I didn't have a vision.
I didn't have an angle.
All I had was the hunger to learn and make a mark in this community.
Over time, the story around AlgoRanter started to take shape - pulled from my own life and what I cared about.
It became about Earth. Community. Kindness.
I (
@RanterSR7) am a sustainability engineer by profession. I wanted to combine the best of both worlds and tell that story through NFTs.
I didn't research the Algorand NFT market. I didn't know a single person in this space back then.
I foolishly generated 7,777 images and minted them all. Lol.
Over time, I used the lore to destroy a huge chunk of them - then burned more to bring the count down to 2,777.
I'll keep going until secondary market demand matches where I believe this collection should be.
The reason I'm telling you all this is because our V2 collection is coming - and it's rooted in the original lore, written before AI existed in our lives.
I'm asking everyone to give it a read: 🟢
rantlabs.xyz/lore
King Xoal and his servant Carbonoid have sent 500 more Ranters into the Bonfire - burned permanently through ARC-54, reduced to ash on-chain. The army has shrunk to 2,277. The lore isn't decoration. It's the roadmap.
Now about V2 - we're releasing later this year.
It might be the greatest artist collaboration collection on
@Algorand. Period.
The characters were designed by some of the OG artists on this chain:
@dfart2287
@Art_by_Felix
@SgtHoov
@Yser_Art
The concept and lore descriptions are by me.
AlgoRanter has rebranded to RantLabs.
The vision is bigger now - maximize what blockchain technology can do, both digitally and in the real world.
Our principles: Systematic · Clear · Themed · Meme-powered
Our passion: NFTs · Community · Fun · Games · Sustainability · Real World Utility
More updates coming.
Thank you for showing love and sticking around - even when we weren't giving our 100%.
That honesty matters to me more than any floor price.
This year will be the best for us all.
