A Punk Manifesto
A Declaration of Sovereignty in the Age of the Blockchain
You've been told your whole life that ownership is a privilege. That someone else must first grant it to you — a government, a platform, a corporation. They've told you your art belongs to their galleries, your identity to their databases, your wealth to their banks.
We reject it. We will not be owned — not by their rules, their systems, or their illusions. We do not ask for permission. We do not wait for approval. We are the rightful owners — of our work, our art, our names, our lives.
Every Punk is proof that scarcity matters in an infinite world.
Every Punk is a shard of a greater rebellion.
CryptoPunks lit the fuse. No permission. No roadmap. No marketing plan. Just proof — that a handful of pixels, when freed from control, could become immortal. We are the inheritors of that proof. And we carry it forward not as decoration, but as a declaration.
We stand on the edge of a new world. One where the chains of centralized control rust and snap under the weight of self-ownership. One where art, identity, and culture are untouchable because they belong only to you.
> In the blockchain age, true ownership is the ultimate rebellion — and we will never give it back. _
A World of 0s and 1s
Everything is code. Your money, your identity, your art, your freedom. We cover the stories that matter — because ownership is the ultimate rebellion.
Digital Sovereignty
Who really owns your digital life? Your accounts, your photos, your money. The uncomfortable truth about digital ownership — and what you can do about it.
CryptoPunks Legacy
The real history of how pixel art became the first provable digital property — and where ExpansionPunks fits in that revolutionary lineage.
AI and Identity
AI can generate anything. So what does ownership even mean? Provable creation matters more than ever when anything can be copied instantly.
Financial Freedom
Banks freeze funds. Governments seize assets. Every story is a case study for why self-custody matters — not hype, just hard truth.

About ExpansionPunks
Established 21 Aug 2021, ExpansionPunks is a collection of 10K unique, procedurally-generated collectible Punks stored as ERC721 tokens on the Ethereum blockchain.
In the same way "expansion packs" introduce new characters and storylines in traditional tabletop gaming, ExpansionPunks have arrived to expand the Punkverse to be a more encompassing community — addressing subtle biases in the original CryptoPunks collection.
The collection features a gender distribution that inverses disparities in the original, resulting in an aggregate 20K collection that better reflects the real world.
