2022 has been some ride in KOPOKO Verse! From minting Klones Genesis in April to the KPK Pets drop, KPK Relics free claim, 1/1 Foundation Auctions, Bao Art Toy, to Klones Ancestor. And yet, in many ways, the journey has only begun...

With the funds we collected from Klones Ancestor mint, we have learnt and had to re-prioritize some of the goals we have planned for year 2023. At the core of KOPOKO Verse, we are an art/fashion/community NFT project, our goal is to utilize this wonderful IP and become a known brand in Web3 and Web2.

Year End Review by Kopoko
Pas évident comme exercice mais j’aimerais partager mon ressenti à chaud avant que 2022 se termine… En 2022 j’ai lancé le plus gros projet de ma carrière artistique , "KOPOKO Verse", avec l’aide de ma femme, mon beau-frère et de mes deux petites sœurs.
This is not an easy exercise, but I would like to share my immediate feelings before 2022 ends... In 2022, I launched the biggest project of my artistic career, "KOPOKO Verse", with the help of my wife, my brother-in-law, and my two younger sisters.
Un projet qui me permet de créer sans limites et dans n’importe quel domaine, mon Art. Un long périple qui nous a nourri à l’adrénaline avec son lot de mésaventures et de rebondissements. J’y ai découvert la nature des gens et au combien certains peuvent basculer dans l’ombre…
A project that allows me to create without limits and in any field, my Art. A long journey that has nourished us with adrenaline with its share of misadventures and twists and turns. I discovered the nature of people and how some can tip into the shadows...
Avec ce projet, j’ai développé une communauté, forte et bienveillante, La KOPOKO Mafia. À la base pour le fun avec un délire "Jeu de rôle", puis elle est devenue vraiment soudée comme une vraie famille. Grâce à elle, je peux faire vivre mon Art et maintenant à l’international.
With this project, I developed a strong and supportive community, the KOPOKO Mafia. Originally for fun with a "role-playing" joke, but it has become really bonded like a real family. Thanks to them, I can live my Art and now internationally.
2022 à changer ma vie et celle de mes proches. Je suis fier de moi et de mon parcours. Rendez-vous en 2023 si Dieu veut 🤍🕊️
2022 changed my life and that of my loved ones. I am proud of y'all for being part of my journey. See you in 2023. God willing 🤍🕊️
One Last Artwork in 2022
To end 2022, KOPOKO would like to release one final artwork he has done in 2022 on Foundation - GOLD DARUMA. In Japanese culture, Daruma is a doll designed to get back up when it falls, embodying the essence of the famous Japanese proverb—fall seven times and stand up eight. This symbolism is part of KOPOKO Verse core values.
GOLD DARUMA will be auctioned on Foundation, starting at 0.2ETH https://foundation.app/@kopoko/kpk/10. The auction winner will receive a GOLD DARUMA companion trait for his Klones Ancestor when KPK Lab is ready and an acrylic print version of it.
And lastly, Happy New Year ❤️
