On-chain innovation is probably experiencing its most flourishing times thanks to Base network 🔵 Every now and then, you hear about a wonderful project which is not another fork of a well-known dApp and it attracts people and brings users to actively participate in a new era of decentralized activities. BasePaint is yet another wonderful project with an amazing idea, exceptionally executed, and shipping toward mass adoption! Do you want to know what is BasePaint about? Read this fully data driven article to position yourself to one of the most potential opportunities of Web3 and crypto industry.
🧑🎨 What is BasePaint? 👨🎨
📝 BasePaint provides a pixelated screen for everyone to participate in drawing a themed painting. This goes beyond saying how this resonates with Web3 soul and passion. We all love to leave an on-chain trace of ourselves, but what better way than painting it on a community-produced artwork!?
And it gets even better! You get rewarded for your share of pixels. You ask how?
After 24 hours of group work, the canvas get locked and it goes to public mint for 0.0026 ETH and all the earnings goes to painters based on their pixel share of the final artwork!
To clarify it more, let’s say for an artwork 10000 pixels were painted and after public mint 2 ETH was collected; In this case a painter with a 100 pixel brush would get 1 percent of mint money which is 0.02 ETH
But I advice you not to see this as an opportunity to earn! We are here to have fun together and produce exceptional communal artwork!
Notice that the mint only continues for 24 hours and after that you can only buy the artwork from secondary market like Opensea
📍 Grab it while you can, so you won't regret it later!
🖌 To get to paint the pixels you should have a Brush 🖌, which you have three ways to aquire:
-
Join a race with others to mint one for 0.0026 ETH (To prevent botting, you need to have a set ENS domain on your minting wallet)
-
Buy one from secondary!
-
If you are an artist, apply Here to get a rare brush if selected!
Every regular brush gives you 100 pixels to paint. The Theme is announced by the team on 16:00 UTC time. Then people start to paint the pixels with a few collors for the next 24 hours along with some selected color pallet 🎨. There is chat box to communicate and help eachother to paint the best artwork. Even if someone paints over another pixel, it doesn't affect the presence of previous pixel and its artist's share of final mint earning.

🤓 Communal art creation has a complex place in history of art. Bringing this debatable practice to onchain world is actually very important. Ontologically speaking, the very fact that there are multiple painters on a given virtual place makes Basepaint-produced artworks important historically.
🧐 This has the potential to be a token-gated hub for many communities of selected artists and scale to a degree that invents a new form of art making.
🤭 One more thing, Imagine being Co-painter with a famous artist, or someone like Vitalik.eth! How much do you think the art will worth then?!
