Deck View: Watcher Playing Cards

 

Polygon. Earthy. Mysterious. 

Watcher Playing Cards, designed by Adrian Valenzuela and produced by Riffle Shuffle, feature striking low-poly artwork and a mysterious narrative. These fully custom cards showcase vibrant, polygon-based designs with a bold Ace of Spades, earthy one-way court cards, and a mesmerizing back design.

The abstract polygon art reflects the sharp choices we make and the structures we build over time, while the yellow tones symbolize our evolving journey. Inspired by a mythical race of silent guardians, the deck invites you to imagine a world where they observe us—not to judge, but to witness our growth.

Bicycle Launched Their First NFT Collection

Welcome to the future! Bicycle launched thier first-ever non-fungible token (NFT) collection. The NFT card collectibles called the “Genesis Collection” were designed by our friend Adrian Valenzuela and the first drop of NFTs was revealed via the NFT marketplace Kolectiv last week.

For card enthusiasts, the Bicycle brand has been iconic since the company’s inception in 1885. 136 years later, the brand has entered into the world of blockchain technology with Adrian's vision of the iconic Bicycle brand transformed into cards from 1,000 years into the future. In a statement, Stefaan Merckx, the CEO of Bicycle said,

At Bicycle, we’re a heritage brand that has been at the forefront of playing cards for over 135 years and this NFT launch marks a special moment in our history where we’re bridging the gap between tradition and innovation. Looking ahead, we’ll continue to reach new consumers and generations, while also staying true to our history.

The Genesis Collection will start with a Unique drop of 24 NFTs commencing on December 9 through the end of the month. Cards 10 to the Ace, plus the Jokers, will be grouped by suit and dropped every few days. The minimum bid for each Unique Collection NFT will be 0.5 ETH with subsequent bidding increments of 0.1 ETH. 

  

Today (December 20th), Bicycle will drop its 8008 NFT items for sale, featuring an animated card tuck case and unique mint numbers from 1 through 8008. This will be the main drop of the Genesis Collection ("Main Collection") 32 randomly selected buyers of the Main Collection will be receiving one of the 32 remaining NFTs in the Unique Collection (cards from 2 to 9) in lieu of the Main Collection card tuck case NFT. 

Also, with the NFT collection, Bicycyle intends to start the collector on a “journey alongside Bicycle, from continued support to perks including access to exclusive events, presales, and whitelists of future Bicycle NFTs.” 

Essentially, the cards will serve as VIP membership- an “elite club of Bicycle collectors.” However, Bicycle does disclose that the primary sale benefit will not be “extended for NFT buyers on [the] secondary market.” 

Also, the word is that the NFTs are carbon-neutral through the purchase of carbon credits to offset any gas fees consumed on Ethereum.
