Abstract
A brief summary of the project’s core idea and the revolutionary concept of sharing profits with NFT holders.
Introduction
Problem statement: The traditional NFT model does not benefit NFT holders beyond the initial purchase.
Project Overview
The vision: To create an NFT ecosystem that rewards NFT holders proportionally to the success of the project.
Introducing "Community NFTs": A Pioneering Concept of Collectively Profitable NFTs
Community NFTs are a new, groundbreaking type of NFTs. They are based on an innovative approach that completely redefines traditional concepts of NFT ownership. With Community NFTs, each NFT’s primary purpose is to benefit the community from which it originates.
Key Characteristics of Community NFTs
Community Focus
The defining characteristic of Community NTFs is their strong commitment to benefiting communities. Instead of making profit just for a single individual, a substantial portion of the revenue generated from the sale of each NFT, i.e. 50%, goes to the welfare of the community, ensuring shared prosperity of the project as a whole.
Active Engagement
Community NFTs holders are encouraged to actively participate in community development. They can propose ideas, initiate discussions and play a key role in shaping the future of the community. This leads to massively increased engagement and promotes building tight-knit communities of diverse individuals bound together with common interest.
The Significance of Community NFTs
Community NFTs represent a groundbreaking shift in the NFT paradigm. It prioritizes the well-being and profitability of digital communities, ensuring that as the project prospers, so do all its participants. This concept not only promotes a strong sense of belonging and unity, but also aligns the interests of individual NFT owners with the success of the wider community.
By adopting Community NFTs, members of the community become active contributors to a shared vision, and not just collectors of digital collectibles. Community NFTs invite individuals to be part of a movement where collective long-term prosperity and increasing community power are the utmost priority.
How to recognise a "Community NFTs"
All NFTs in the collection are marked "Community NFTs" in the bottom left-hand corner - it’s a quick way to distinguish that they are special NFTs created for the direct benefit of the community.
Community NFTs Profit Distribution
Community NFTs profit distribution process is transparent, fair, and easy to understand:
- 50% of the revenue generated by NFT sales will be collected in a virtual chest (a dedicated wallet). These revenues have an exclusive purpose, and cannot be used for any purpose other than for the benefit of the community.
The remaining 50% of the revenue is distributed by the team as follows:
- 30% for operational expenses, which include marketing and maintenance costs.
- 20% goes directly to the creator of the collection.
Distribution of the NFT Sale Revenue to the Community
Instead, all Community NFTs owners will be able to join a specially created section of the official Discord server where all participants will be eligible to receive prizes in regular, random draws.
The prizes will be distributed in MATIC cryptocurrency.
The entire amount of funds collected in the virtual chest, i.e. 50% of all Community NFTs sales, will be distributed to Community NFTs owners.
Real-time reporting allows community members to monitor the financial health of the project.
Join the Community NFTs Revolution!
By aligning the interests of the community with the success of the project, we’ve reimagined NFT ownership as a collective journey toward a more equitable and interconnected digital future.
Community NFTs invite you to be a part of the next stage in the evolution of NFTs. Together, we prosper.

Origins
New York City’s public housing developments date back to the early 20th century. The first public housing project, “The First Houses,” was completed in 1935 on Manhattan’s Lower East Side.
Purpose
Public housing was established to address housing shortages, poor living conditions and overcrowding in low-income neighborhoods of New York City. Its goal was to provide safe, affordable and decent housing for residents.
Communities
These housing projects have fostered well-knit communities and neighborhoods within the City. Residents often have access to amenities such as playgrounds, community centers, and green spaces.
Cultural impact
New York’s public housing has had a cultural impact, influencing literature, film and art. It has been depicted in works ranging from novels such as “A Tree Grows in Brooklyn” to films such as “Goodfellas”.
NYC Projects : a Diverse and Inclusive Community NFTs Collection
NYC Projects is a delightful and fun collection of NFT art that brings the vibrant spirit of New York City into the world of digital collectibles.
Within this extensive collection, 92 of the NFTs specifically represent non-binary people.
