As a kid growing up in the early 2000s I couldn’t afford expensive software like Photoshop and Sony Vegas, so I pirated it. The Pirate Bay and FrostWire was my first encounter with peer-to-peer networks — at the time I just wanted learn how to make logos and edit videos for my YouTube channel, but I only now see the true significance of these platforms.

Not long ago, I purchased my first CryptoPhunk in what I call a statement against censorship and copyright — you can read more about my first encounter with copyright laws here. However, one of the reasons why I think the Phunk movement resonated so deeply with me was because I saw the entire community building shit regardless of if they had of permission or not. They flipped the imagery from a company proclaiming to be in favour of an open and decentralised web only to be struck down with a DMCA notice — practically blackballing and excluding the Phunks from the rest of the NFT community.

But this didn’t matter…

They kept building and even created their own NFT marketplace ‘Not Larva Labs’ with zero trading fees — which has now done over Ξ3,137 ($9M+) in trading volume.

They didn’t give a PHUCK, they JUST DID IT.

This brings me to the limited edition Pirate Hoodie designed by myself — created to pay homage to several of the internets most notorious players. The hoodie is the first official permissionless collaboration between the CryptoPhunks and Nike. The hoodie features my own personal CryptoPhunk #1717 emblazoned on the left side of the chest combined with the Pirate Bay, Frostwire and flipped Nike logos aswell as an excerpt from the Bitcoin Whitepaper.

There are only 25 Pirate Hoodie NFTs available to mint. Each hoodie costs Ξ 0.04 ($103.33) and will be redeemable for a physical edition of the hoodie itself via a short claim window in the Official TEJI WORLD Discord.

NOTE: After minting your Pirate Hoodie please verify your assets via Collab.Land in the TEJI WORLD Discord to gain access to claim channel.
