## Yung Pixels: the Shape of NFTs to Come

![Welcome to the shape of NFTs to come!](/files/6KI1ydqgNKFvA1dfl6ib)

Just as Ethereum is undergoing a major revolution this year with The Docking (a.k.a. The Merge), we honor this change that's about to come and present the **NFT 2.0**: Yung Pixels. A collection that values **true decentralization, transparency and permissionlessness in every process.**

### A model for the next ETH 2.0 NFTs. The next era needs NFTs done right.

To put it in a very direct and simplistic way, one could define Yung Pixels as a collection of 10,000 algorithmically generated PFP NFTs built on Ethereum and Powered by Chainlink.&#x20;

A thorough analysis, however, will show that each Yung Pixels is much more than a simple PFP: each piece of this collection has a huge intrinsic value generated by technologies that provide [**true randomness and** **true decentralization powered by Chainlink's VRF**](/whitepaper/technological-overview/randomness.md)**,** [**an innovative artistic concept**](/whitepaper/dialogue-with-art/nfts-and-art.md) and an [**original and fashionable urban style that anyone can relate to**](/whitepaper/dialogue-with-art/take-a-sneak-peek.md)**.**&#x20;

Yung Pixels brings freedom to reveal (the user can reveal the NFT whenever - or if - he wants), with verifiable on-chain randomness and real decentralization of the metadata, to the NFT scene. By aligning these features, the **real, nostalgic feeling of "opening a sticker pack" is finally brought to NFTs in the right way:** completely decentralized and transparent since its genesis. **No other project has done this - until today.**

Aside from that, ownership of a Yung Pixels allows benefits (such as to [**be part of a DAO**](/whitepaper/yung-pixels-dao/to-be-a-dao.md)) that will be disclosed as the project advances, and together with the YP community.

## Pillars of Yung Pixels:

Yung Pixels is a revolutionary project that has a few pillars to stand upon, being them:

* **Real and Verifiable Decentralization;**
* **True and Verifiable Randomness, provided by Chainlink's VRF;**
* **Development of a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO), adding to the NFT more intrinsic value;**
* **Urban artistic interventions around the world: a NFT revolution that is a link between Real and Virtual;**
* **Dialogue on Crypto, digital and urban art in relation to Art: a reflection on the future of NFTs;**
* **To be a reference brand in fashion and style, as well as in the NFT world and Metaverses to come;**
* **A professional revolution in today's troubled NFT scene. The Shape of NFTs to come.**
