Michael Hirsch, aka the 'Slopfather', is the founder of Slonks, an Ethereum-based on-chain NFT collection featuring 10,000 NFTs. It attempts to reconstruct the original CryptoPunks pixel by pixel using a neural network model, but the charm lies in the way it fails.
At first, this was just an on-chain AI experiment, but it eventually evolved into a full-blown ecosystem built around 'imperfection'. It features a burn-and-merge mechanism, a token called SLOP directly tied to pixel deviations, and the upcoming on-chain arcade game Slops.
