Mintbay
Welcome to the second issue of the Mintbay newsletter.
Mintbay is a minting platform that lets you create and collect fully on-chain editions on Base. Every piece you mint is a ERC-721, stored completely on-chain, permanent and collectible.
This week, we’ve seen some incredible new work dropped on Mintbay.
We’re loving the growing variety of styles and how differently each artist is using the platform’s tools.
Here’s a small curated selection from this week’s standout drops:
Mintbay is beginning to show its range and this is just the start.
We’re excited to announce that Mintbay is officially part of the Base Batches global buildathon, organized by Base.
For this event, we’re building something special: BayBatches.
BayBatches is a public creative drop where anyone can shape, remix, and mint pixel art together. Each edition is a small statement,not just art, but a collective act of on-chain expression.
Everyone enters the same shared studio.
Everyone leaves with their own edition.
And all of it lives permanently on Base, fully on-chain.
Because building on-chain should feel like making art with friends.
More details and preview art coming next week. Stay tuned!
We just crossed a major milestone:
Over 100 editions minted fully on-chain in Mintbay’s first two weeks on Base mainnet!
That’s 100+ unique creations now etched forever into the blockchain.
Thank you to every early artist and collector making history with us.
At Mintbay, every piece of art is generated using 8x8 glyphs, sourced from a dedicated smart contract called the GlyphContract. This contract can hold up to 127 unique glyphs—all stored fully on-chain.
The system is modular and open:
When minting, creators choose their GlyphSet, think of it like selecting a brush. Each set creates a different aesthetic and structure for your artwork.
The newest set is inspired by pure pixel love.
A tribute to the expressive power of the smallest unit in digital art.
Thanks for reading and being part of the journey.
Whether you’re here to launch your first collection, explore the edges of pixel art, or just see what the future of on-chain creation looks like. it’s all happening here.
Welcome to [mintbay].
Built with pixels.
mint it. collect it. own it. forever.
