About this course
This is a design course about collectibles, not a guide to minting mechanics. You will learn how a profile-picture collection is actually built, from a locked anchor point and base layer through stackable trait categories, weighted rarity, and the alignment and palette discipline that keeps 10,000 generated combinations from looking broken. It covers the distinct craft of 1-of-1 art, the visual codes that make a collectible feel native to its medium, and how to assemble, audit, and present a collection so it reads clearly at 64 by 64 pixels and holds together as a body of work.
