Having cut his teeth in DeFi before discovering NFTs, Zagabond created one of the top-tier NFT projects and anime-based brands in Azuki.
Originally minting in January 2022, the founder and project have had their trials and tribulations but have come through the other side. This week, they launch a culture coin called ANIME that aims to create a community-owned network.

The original collection Azuki currently sits at a 10.5 ETH floor price with a massive 810,000 ETH in volume in three years. The Azuki ecosystem is also home to Beanz, Elementals and Elemental Beans. Beanz was originally airdropped to Azuki holders just minutes after Zagabonds Check your wallets announcement at NFT LA in 2022, which became part of NFT folklore.
Zagabond heard about Bitcoin around 2014, but his true introduction to crypto was via Ethereum around 2017, which ultimately led him to become a founding member of 0x.
