NFT - DIGITAL COLLECTIBLES
The Tigerbob brand initiated with the sale of the Tigerbob Genesis digital collectible in May 2022. Customers who purchased this digital collectible received digital art made by Gossamer Rozen. The sale of this initial project allowed Gossamer Rozen to expand their work by creating the Tigerbob brand.
The Tigerbob Genesis collection remains patrons' front row seat ticket to observe, collect, and participate in Gossamer's creative projects.

WHAT ARE DIGITAL COLLECTIBLES?
Digital collectibles are digital art pieces that use NFT (Non-Fungible Tokens) technology.
NFTs are smart contracts, or records on the blockchain, that establish ownership of a unique asset. They can be accompanied by digital media like artwork, video, or music, and can also represent or authenticate “real world” items like tickets or luxury goods. NFTs provide a wide range of new ways for creators and brands to reward their fans, to provide access to exclusive goods and experiences, and to build community.
NFTs are just one of the many applications of blockchain technology that encompasses the web3 movement, which includes cryptocurrencies.
For the Tigerbob brand, we use NFTs exclusively as digital collectibles, or digital art.
TRANSACTING WITH DIGITAL COLLECTIBLES
There are several key concepts you should familiarize yourself with before buying your first digital collectible (NFT) – such as how to set up a digital wallet, how to secure your assets, and how to avert common pitfalls and scams.
We recommend new users orient themselves with these helpful guides from Ledger, our trusted hardware crypto wallet product and SAS.
We also recommend that you join the Tigerbob/Grelysian DISCORD server and follow @tigerbob_global on Twitter/X. There is a friendly community eager to address any questions you may have.
WHY IS TIGERBOB A DIGITAL COLLECTIBLE?
The Tigerbob brand uses NFTs to display digital artwork. These collectibles are also a utility token or ticket that provides exclusive incentives to the owner of the token.
Digital collectibles allow Gossamer to build a fine art career in line with their artistic vision. NFTs leverage what has been described as the 1,000 True Fans theory: that building a passionate community can sustain a creative enterprise, without the compromises inherent in traditional financing and business models.
Digital collectibles allow Gossamer to both expand their artistic reach and make money necessary to sustain their work. Self-funding the project also allows Gossamer to continue making art that honors and expresses their values as a human and artist. Perhaps even more importantly, Gossamer has connected with thousands of new supporters who share these values, and together the community are ambassadors to raise awareness for Tigerbob and Gossamer Rozen's work.
From gated, holders-only channels in our community Discord server to access to exclusive in-person events and more, the 1,000 Tigerbob Genesis digital collectibles confer benefits that allow Gossamer to recognize and reward the individuals who have helped to make this venture possible.
