9dcc, the on-chain fashion label founded by pseudonymous crypto personality and investor gmoney, is preparing to release its latest project, the 9dcc Black Box, on December 18.
The drop, limited to 2,750 NFTs minted on Ethereum layer-2 network Base, is being billed by the crypto-native luxury brand as a blend of fashion, blockchain technology, and mystery.
Each 9dcc Black Box promises a mix of digital and physical rewards. Buyers might find an item from the label’s Collection-01, which ranges from baseball caps to jackets. These pieces, which combine traditional materials with NFC chip technology, aim to bridge the gap between physical and digital experiences.
The Black Box also includes points for the 9dcc Network leaderboard, an ongoing gamified feature of the brand’s ecosystem. The pieces range from $95 (Essential Baseball Cap) to $600 (Satin Bomber Jacket). What the buyer gets in the box is part of the intrigue.
The real draw, however, is the possibility of unearthing a rare prize: CryptoPunk #7429, one of the highly sought-after NFTs in the CryptoPunk series, which start at a price of nearly $139,000 on secondary marketplaces.
Only one Black Box contains the Ethereum NFT, and this CryptoPunk wears an orange beanie—a highly sought-after trait in the collection. On-chain data shows that gmoney purchased the NFT for just over $150,000 worth of ETH late Monday.
