The Emergence of a New Wrapper for CryptoPunks
According to 0xQuit, Yuga Labs’ smart contract expert and security wiz, the company has put out a new wrapper called “CryptoPunks 721” for CryptoPunks. They’ve confirmed this in a recent December 20th blog post. This new functionality will enable wrapped CryptoPunks NFT holders to access all ERC-721 benefits.
Sneak Peek Into Yuga Labs’ New C-721 Wrapper
Established in 2021, Yuga Labs is known for managing popular NFT collections, such as Bored Ape Yacht Club, Mutant Ape Yacht Club, Bored Ape Kennel Club, Otherdeed For Otherside, TwelveFold, Koda NFTs, and More. In addition, the company owns the intellectual property (IP) for CryptoPunks and Meebits.
Yuga Labs has now gone ahead and rolled out its very own wrapped solution. Essentially, this comes with a new wrapper and an interface for it, guaranteeing safety and ease-of-use. This move indicates how far wrapper contracts have come, particularly for Punks.
Making the New Functionality More Accessible
With the CryptoPunks C-721, holders can perform popular actions, which previously were impossible with unwrapped CryptoPunks. These included listing Punks for sale to a private address. Interviewed about the new functionality, 0xQuit noted, “We are releasing our own full solution. That involves a new wrapper and an interface for the wrapper, so everything should be really safe and straightforward.”
Wrapping It Up
The wrapped tokens open up the full potential of ERC-721 to the CryptoPunks ecosystem, allowing NFT collectors to wrap their original CryptoPunks NFTs with CryptoPunks 721. This wrapped Punk can now be listed on a standard NFT marketplace, giving holders the advantage of that entire marketplace feature. Plus, with all the surging demand for NFTs, CryptoPunks 721 is also accessible to people new to the crypto world.
