BasePaint is a shared pixel canvas. The community makes art for 24 hours.
After which, the canvas locks, and an open edition NFT of the artwork is available to mint for 24 hours. 90% of the profits of the OE are distributed to the artists proportional to the number of pixels they painted. 10% goes to the protocol.
😊 Be Kind: Be nice and patient with each other. We're all here to learn and create together.
🖌️ Be Original: Don't copy another artist's pixel art that you found online.
🥸 Be Yourself: One brush per painter. Use your brush invites on new artists and not yourself!

⚠️ Keep It Clean: No QR Codes, crypto project names, logos, offensive symbols, etc.
