Hi, there!
Another one? Yes, we’re launching another innovative index this month, JPG. The JPG NFT Index provides a diversified portfolio of blue-chip and leading NFT collections in a single token. To coincide with the launch of JPG, we’re also releasing an NFT project of our own, Collectooors. Check out how you can get 1 of 100 of these originals airdropped into your wallet. And last but not least, we’ll reveal the winning meme from our icETH community competition.    Â

A True NFT Index Has Arrived 🎇

Are You A Collectooor? 🥸
Alongside the launch of JPG, the Index Coop is releasing a project featuring 100 unique NFTs called Collectooors. Collectooors are NFT aficionados who will have the opportunity to vote on future components, direct yield, and airdrops accrued by the index. Holders of this NFT are incentivized to be good stewards of the NFT ecosystem in a way similar to how Index Coop contributes to DeFi by exercising its DPI metagovernance power. Collectooor NFTs will be:
airdropped to liquidity providers in a first of its kind liquidity mining campaign (30 NFTs)
reserved for the JPG product team (20 NFTs)
reserved for the Collectoooors treasury (20 NFTs)
distributed to the community via an initial airdrop to incubate thoughtful engagement & collaborative ecosystem stewardship amongst the Collectooors (30 NFTs)
Attend our 4/20 launch day events on Twitter Spaces (3pm Eastern) in Discord (4pm Eastern) for your chance to win $JPG and your very own Collectooor NFT.

Seizing The Memes of Production
A picture is worth a thousand words, but a meme is worth a thousand pictures. Memes are a visual form of communication that build community and generate awareness by clearly delivering a message. To engage the community and spread the word of the icETH launch, Index Coop hosted a meme contest with $2,250 of icETH up for grabs. Hundreds of creative videos, photoshops, and custom real-world items were submitted by the community. In the end, KindEagle’s video mashup featuring Wojak, “Ice Ice Baby”, and a Bogdonoff twin, was declared the winner by the community.
