Info
Folia is pleased to announce DoAW, a collection of 1024 wallets (EOAs) by Joan Heemskerk available for mint on December 12th, 18:00 UTC for 0.055555555555555555 ETH.
DoAW (Dead or Alive Wallet) takes aim at the heart of cryptography: the seed phrase used to create wallets. In this work, the user generates endless wallets, interpreted across the screen in sound, color and words. Upon minting, they capture a point of randomness, storing it as the on-chain ID of the minted NFT. While the NFT is tethered to a single seed, the sub-infinite number of derived private keys score the endless animation.
Unveiling these seed phrases compromises each wallet's security, granting access to the wallet. In addition, a shaDoAW NFT cast into the wallets of the first DoAW mints. To move the shaDoAW, ETH must be deposited, and bots vigilant in the dark forest might intercept any funds before it can escape.
In this interplay of security and art, DoAW explores the nature of revealed secrets while navigating the perilous landscape of blockchain transparency.
⚠️ Note: these are real wallets with exposed keys! Any assets deposited to these wallets are at serious risk for exploits and theft.
Minting will take place on doaw.folia.app and mint.fun
