Why not use CryptoKitties as example instead of CryptoPunks? #233

Closed androidhead closed 2 years ago

androidhead commented 2 years ago

In the section NFT Basics, I noticed that it reads "Among the earliest NFT experiments is CryptoPunks". I believe CryptoKitties was possibly the first NFT project, and sent precedents used by other NFT projects (including CryptoPunks). This being the case, why not mention CryptoKitties here instead of (or in addition to) CryptoPunks?

My assumption is the 8-bit look and feel of NFT.school might be partially inspired by CryptoPunks (correct me if I'm wrong, anyone). However, I agree that CryptoKitties is indeed the trailblazer. I don't see any harm in including this reference/homage. Would you like to take a stab at this @androidhead?

@androidhead I'm closing this for now. Feel free to move this to a discussion or re-open later.
