Here for Free Money?
eerieum_ has received an incredible response to the Greenlist and we’re updating the contract to get all of our supporters listed. We’re also waiting for the gas gods to chill the F out so we can deploy without going bankrupt.
In the meantime, join our discord, take a look at the site and be on the lookout for the announcement that minting is OPEN! Thanks for your patience, fam!
\V/alue depends on who’s hodling
V/alue is a first-of-its-kind art collection + collect-to-earn game by 15-year-old LA street artist, eerieum_. The project is designed to build shared value for a community who like collecting- and exploring- money, currency, art and value.
This multi-phased project will cycle through stages, straddling real life and digital experiences and take collectors on a metaphysical journey as the world transitions from physical to digital and fiat to crypto.
All genesis NFTs unlock future utility with access to upcoming physical & digital drops, IRL events and future whitelists.

\V/alue Happens in Cycles
The \V/alue project is designed to be a long-term experiment that explores the dynamics of value, currency, art, money & power. And while we can never promise that anyone will make money from this project, the experiment is designed to reward early supporters and long-term holders.
We’re planning to cycle through the phases of \V/alue in the following order:
Value: Launch 60 Genesis ‘Parent’ 1/1 NFTs with IRL counterparts. IRL counterparts are sent to the NFT’s first owner.
Derivatives: Drop a larger series of 1/1 ‘child’ NFTs based on the parent with no IRL counterpart
Futures: Parent token holders receive a portion of its correlating child’s primary & secondary sales (built into the smart contract)
Currency: Subsequent drops using different currencies and/or denominations
Deflation: Burn mechanisms allow early holders to trade for tokens with increased value while taking older tokens out of circulation
FAQs:
-
There are 60 pieces in the Genesis Parent drop and prices will range between .08E and .15E.
Each of these pieces will have a royalty rate of 10%.
When the Genesis Parent series is sold out I’ll reduce royalties for the entire series to 7.5%
-
We’re planning to drop the first ‘Derivatives’ in Feb/March 2022 and will announce pricing closer to the drop date.
Please follow me on Twitter and join Discord for the most up-to-date info
-
Genesis Parents can be minted on OpenSea.
Derivatives will be minted from a verified smart contract here at www.eerieum.xyz

If you purchase an NFT that comes with a physical, IRL art piece, the instructions on how to receive it will be embedded in the hidden content.
If you purchase an NFT that was put into circulation, you’ll receive information on the location it was spent. On a personal note, I’m really curious to see how many NFT owners try to track down their physical counterparts- and vice versa.
My hope and intention with this project is to create unique connections between unsuspecting recipients of physical dollar/art pieces and the buyer who mint its NFT.
-
If you mint one of these NFTs with an IRL counterpart, you’ll find instructions on how to receive your art piece in your NFT’s unlockable content.
ONLY the first buyer of that NFT can receive the physical piece.
Whether or not you unpair the pieces on the secondary market is up to you.
If you’re interested in a custom commission (I’ve done several Punks, Apes, Cool Cats, CryptoVenetian and a Morie), please get in touch on Twitter or Discord.
From eerieum_:
Is a dollar just a dollar, or is it a piece of art? Does it make you rich or does it make you poor? Are you the creator, collector or the dealer? The \V/alue project is about challenging our ideas of money, currency and art as the world moves from physical to digital and fiat to crypto.
With this project, I‘m trying to blur the lines between the physical and digital worlds by connecting collectors of tactile art and tokenized NFTs.
Some of you will purposely collect my art while others will have it thrust upon you. You may find it, receive it as a gift or get it in exchange for something I buy from you for a dollar.
My hope is that someday, the value of a dollar can change all of our lives.
About eerieum_
I’m a 15 year old street artist, skater and musician from Los Angeles, CA. In LA, I grew up around some of the best graffiti in the world and I got exposed to a lot of different styles and techniques. I’m inspired by the idea that these graffiti artists literally give their art away- for free. I think it’s funny that some people think graffiti is vandalism while other people pay millions for a Banksy.
When I was in 6th grade, I hid 500 tiny plastic naked babies all over my school. Kids & teachers kept finding them around the school for years- some kids started collecting them and I’d always laugh when I saw people comparing their plastic baby collections. I think I’d consider that my first ‘street art’ project. Also, I never told anyone it was me.
I’m fascinated by the idea of money and how people value it- especially while so many people are transitioning to cryptocurrency. The \V/alue project is really about using art as a platform to trigger a multi-generational conversation about how we all perceive money.
I started drawing more regularly during the pandemic as a way to entertain myself and keep myself distracted from the chaos of Los Angeles. I was introduced to NFTs by the amazing folks at BrightMoments Gallery in Venice and even had the opportunity to participate in a IRL minting of a CryptoVenetian. Since then, I’ve gotten really excited about the space and have had the chance to meet some of my artistic heroes including Danny Cole, FEWOCIOUS and Art Block’s chief engineer and generative artist, Arron Penne.
I have no idea where this project will lead but I hope you like and support it and join us on this journey. We have a lot of great people wanting to help us and have some incredible ideas of where to take it. Ultimately though, I’m looking forward to hearing from the community and making decisions (and art) with their input.
I don’t know you, but I know I love you. Stay valuable.
