3 min readOct 25, 2021

We are excited to announce that on the 12th November, the Meraki IDO will be hosted on the Gravity Finance Launchpad!

Meraki is the first Generative Art Platform on the Polygon blockchain.

Introducing Meraki

The Meraki platform aims to enable artists and users, with varying degrees of skill, to be able to offer their work for sale, and easily collect work respectively across the platform.

With generative art on the precipice, ready to explode into the mainstream, there is an unfulfilled need for a platform that could not only save it’s potential users and collectors from extreme gas costs, but also provide artists a way to utilise all the benefits of provable randomness that can add a never before seen level to their work.

About Meraki Token

The Meraki Token is an NFT (ERC-721) that gives the token owner a share of the Meraki Platform earnings.

It is estimated that over $1,000,000,000 (1 Billion USD) was spent in the last 12 months on Generative Art just on the Ethereum blockchain alone.

Current statistics estimate that there are around 500,000 user wallets connected to OpenSea, arguably one of the largest NFT platforms around. With companies such as Coinbase and other well known brands entering the NFT-Space soon, and using the Polygon blockchain, these numbers are expected to swell exponentially (Coinbase currently serves around 68 million users globally).

By owning and holding Meraki Token(s) you can benefit from the earnings generated by Meraki primary and secondary market sales.
