cryptopunks VS punks.contracts

I am trying to inscribe my punk. Can you tell me how to download the original image that is on-chain? https://github.com/larvalabs/cryptopunks/blob/master/punks.png gives me the collection image but not individual ones.

From the cryptopunks github readme:

3. your ownership does not prevent anyone from copying the file itself for their own uses.

Regarding your point that the object you own might not be consistent: because of the cost relative of storing data on a blockchain, the actual digital thing you own isn't stored on the blockchain, but a hash of that file (e.g. [1]). Unless hashing is broken, this is cryptographic proof that the object does remain consistent.

Let's applaud the CryptoPunks - Matt Hall and John Watkinson - for publishing an all-in-one (free) composite image of all 10 000 punks on github - see github.com/larvalabs/cryptopunks/punks.png (~ 800k) - plus on explaining that the images are not "on-chain", that is, stored itself on the blockchain.

They’re stored on chain now, as a fun side project. Check the metadata for the cryptopunks tho. The image is on git https://github.com/larvalabs/cryptopunks/blob/master/punks.png

If you want to download the "official" copy go to the https://github.com/larvalabs/cryptopunks/blob/master/punks.png page and click on the Download-Button in the right corner) that should show the image in the browser.

Yep... Here is all 10,000 cryptopunks... absolutely free... no strings attached... enjoy!

Why not share the attributes dataset on GitHub let's say in a comma-separated values (csv) format? Or the new CryptoPunksData contract source along with some documentation? The last update /change on the official larvalabs/cryptopunks repo is Dec 2017!

The original 10 000 CryptoPunks pixel art collections by Larva Labs (Matt Hall and John Watkinson) shares the blockchain (ethereum) contract code, see larvalabs/cryptopunks but NOT the pixel art or the generation machinery or attributes / traits and so on.

Youre welcome! You're so Sweet .

PS: Great to see the source published on github @ stephancill/synthetic-punks. I try to add the SyntheticPunks contract to the punks.contracts collection in the next days for further study.

PS: See punks.contracts for all contracts listed by time of creation.

some people collect (or is that gamble and speculate with?) punk tokens - I try to (study) and collect punk contracts ;-). See /punks.contracts for the full monty of the magic money minting / printing machines - yes, the open source code in the solidity programming language.

I've updated /punks.contracts. What's News?

While updating punks.contracts a code nugget from the ExpansionPunk contract:

I am updating /punks.contracts - a collection of punk blockchain contracts / services.

I try to collect some crypto punk contracts at /punks.contracts I'd say so far that's a first and welcome innovation / addition. The zunks (started on August 7, 2021) as far as I can tell store the attributes on-chain for every punk and offer (as a paid service - ka-ching!) a "re-roll" up-to-three times, that is, like on a one-armed bandit you can try your luck again for a new hair-do, hat or mouth prop and such BUT not the species (alien, ape, zombie, etc.).

And thanks for sharing the SHA-256 crypto hash for verification. I will add the ExpansionPunks contract to the /punks.contracts collection in the next days.
