About RomanPunks

“It’s AD 410, the Goths are sacking the city of Rome. A rift in the fabric of space-time occurs at the Temple of Jupiter Capitolinus. Suddenly multiple dimensions collide and coalesce. Time travelers and spacefarers exist alongside terrestrials who had previously lived thousands of years apart. The world is now a fractured patchwork of time and space with Rome at the center of it all. The world is now RomanPunk.”

RomanPunks is a retro-futuristic cyberpunk derivative world-building project, hand-drawn by our brilliant artist and co-founder Cleopunktra and minted as NFTs on the blockchain. We find inspiration from pop culture + science fiction + ancient history + art + technology. Imagine epic gladiator battles followed by an afterparty with the likes of Vivien Leigh, William Gibson, Julius Caesar, Frida Kahlo and Shigeru Miyamoto. Your RomanPunk NFTs unlock a whole-new world of gaming, community and collectibles. There are only 1,000 RomanPunk ‘avatar’ NFTs created on the Ethereum blockchain, with many more tradable NFTs on carbon neutral blockchains including WAX, Polygon & Algorand.
