These characters will take center stage in an upcoming comic series set to launch later this year.
To bring its vision to life, 0N1 Force has formed a strategic partnership with Theia Interactive, one of only three official Unreal Engine partners. The collaboration aims to launch The Enclave into Fortnite Creative 2.0, further merging the realms of blockchain and gaming.
This year's Comic-Con attendees are in for a treat as 0N1 Force will preview its much-anticipated comic books during the event. An off-chain points system, another unique initiative by the project, is set to be unveiled in the coming weeks, and developed in collaboration with HLV_XYZ.
Moreover, the 0N1 Force team is expanding, welcoming on board several highly skilled artists and advisors, such as Hicham Habchi, former Principal at Riot Games, and Square Kush, a respected animation advisor.
📊 By the Numbers
0N1 Force's floor price has been on the move up since the beginning of the year, and while the price initially rose on the latest announcements, it's settled lower in the last two days. Nevertheless, the project is up four percent in the last week.
🎤Project Prose
Stay on the lookout, we’re just getting started!0N1 Force
Henry Finn, formerly a volunteer and now CEO, is leading the resurgence of the 0N1 Force brand, joined by an all-star team that includes David Uslan, a prominent name in the Batman franchise's TV and film IP rights.
The Deets
- Finn began as a volunteer, progressing to project manager and eventually CEO.
- The 0N1 community appointed Finn as CEO, acknowledging his dedication and involvement in the brand.
- Old Fashioned Research (OFR) recently acquired 0N1 Force, a turning point for the brand.
- Finn envisions 0N1 Force as a potential billion-dollar brand in the digital collectible market.
The Bulk
Henry Finn's journey with 0N1 Force started humbly. Initially volunteering in early 2022, Finn quickly found himself engaged with the brand and its community. His leadership style, molded by his involvement with the community, earned him the respect and trust of its members, eventually leading to his appointment as CEO.
While Finn contemplated leaving 0N1 Force after OFR's acquisition, he decided to stay, recognizing the unique opportunity it presented. Encouraged by the dynamic and experienced team at OFR, Finn stayed, believing in his unique ability to lead the brand and inspired by the potential that lay ahead.
According to Finn, the acquisition by OFR marked the beginning of a brand resurgence. While assigning a monetary value to a digital IP can be challenging, Finn believes that 0N1 Force has the potential to evolve into a billion-dollar brand that could rival some of the largest IPs in the world.
❗Why It Matters
The 0N1 Force's revival under Finn's leadership signifies the value of a strong community and strategic partnerships in the NFT space. This could set a precedent for other brands navigating similar challenges, demonstrating the importance of dedicated leadership and the power of community support.

Now that we have completely new ownership that is stellar and the original founders are 100 percent out, we want the community to know that we have truly turned over a new leaf and it is safe for them to look at us in a new light.Henry Finn, CEO of 0N1 Force

0N1 Force announced the release of 0N1 Force Worldwide, three individual community features aimed at building the 0N1 Force footprint worldwide.
The Deets
- Three programs: Franchise, R0N1N, and World Club
- All require KYC and applications for support
- Each recieves varying levels of support from 0N1 Force team like marketing assets and support
The Details
0N1 Force's Worldwide campaign offers three levels of varying project support to community members who wish to push forward the 0N1 Force brand. "Worldwide" operates similarly to the Pudgy Penguins brand builder's guide, which gives community holders tools and resources to promote themselves and the brand.
"Franchise" allows 0N1 Force holders to apply and submit their PFP for development in the franchise model. If accepted, users will receive support and can provide business proposals for which the 0N1 Force team will help build assets, market, and distribute.
"R0N1N" is a business development ambassador program. Users who successfully apply will receive a "R0N1N" PFP to distinguish their status as an ambassador. Approved ambassadors can then seek out business deals for 0N1 Force and participate in the deal flow for the opportunities they provide. Each R0N1N PFP is controlled by the 0N1 Force team and can be recalled at any time. They cannot be bought or sold.
"World Club" brings 0N1 Force to IRL. Three or more members can apply to create an 0N1 Force Club. Clubs can host IRL gatherings to support and promote the brand and 0N1 Force may help provide founding members, guide books, marketing support and more.
❗️Why It Matters
Many NFT projects have started leaning into their communities for support and distribution of the brand and IP, but perhaps no project has formalized the process as much as the new team behind 0N1 Force. Specifically, the 0N1 Force ambassador program creates intriuge as it allows approved members to more or less act as a member of the 0N1 Force team to bring about expansionary deals and share in the upside. 0N1 Force may be best known for the "Logan Paul bought this NFT for a lot, it's now worth $10" meme, but the project has a new ownership and exists in a sector (anime) with a rabid fanbase and major potential.
📊 By the Numbers
0N1 Force is up 40 percent in the last year, but is still down more than 75 percent from its all-time floor price high.

0N1 Force announced that it has formed a strategic partnership with Horizen Labs Ventures (HLV).
The Details
- 0N1 Force is collaborating with Horizen Labs Ventures to "deliver its community world class experiences," explore new opportunities, and drive growth.
- HLV advises on fungible token launches, NFT development, metaverse participation, DAO creation, and sustainable DAO governance.
- HLV clients and partners include Yuga Labs, ApeCoin DAO, The Sandbox, Jam City, Dust Protocol (token powering the DeGods / y00ts ecosystem), Animoca Brands, and more.
❗ Why It Matters
Ever since 0N1 Force returned under new management back in February, the new team has been hard at work setting their grand ambitions in motion. Now they're looking to take the next step. Enter Horizen Labs Ventures, an ecosystem advisory partner that will strive to help maximize 0N1 Force's potential.
And if you recognize the name Horizen Labs, it might be because Horizen is the blockchain infrastructure company that presided over the creation of the ApeCoin staking system. So HLV has the experience and knowhow to navigate the peculiarities of the Web3 space, as well as the regulatory environment, if needed.

- 0N1 Force Reportedly Bought Out (February 22, 2023)
Today, the new team behind 0n1 Force hosted a Twitter Spaces, and then detailed their vision going forward in an extensive Medium article.
🔙 Back It Up
0n1 Force is a popular collection of 7,777 generative anime-style characters created in August 2021. It rose to prominence at a time when the NFT space was truly starting to percolate - right around BAYC's unforgettable "Fuck it. Mutants Saturday" tweet. However, the project would flounder over the next year (like many projects from 2021), lost amidst a sea of other PFP projects entering the space.
1 year after launching, the floor had fallen below 0.3 ETH, and it wouldn't have been crazy to believe the project was dead. But starting in October the buys started again, and the floor begin to rise...And it continued to climb every month until now, with potential sale rumors swirling. It hit a crescendo (and floor price around 1.8 ETH) on February 22nd - when news broke that it had been bought out by a group including former execs from Binance and Yield Games.
❗ Why It Matters
0n1 Force's rebirth has been something to behold for anyone who's been around the space and witnessed their rise, fall, and rise again. Similar to the acquisition of Pudgy Penguins by Luca Netz, the transfer of ownership has also breathed new life into the 0n1 Force project. And now, the new team is officially in place and ready to articulate their vision for the future.
🔜 What’s Next?
The team's goal for the first three months is as follows:
- Rebuilt Trust
- Reactivate the Brand
- Reignite Fanbase
They've reiterated that while the transaction is newly completed, they've been hard at work on the vision for the next 2-3 years.
🔍 The Deets
As far as what they've done so far:
- Fully bought out the founders, who have subsequently stepped away completely and have no involvement any longer.
- Brought back IMCMPLX (the original 0N1 artist) and Cromagnus (in-house illustrator) as creative advisors to help with new original works of art.
- Increased quality of artwork/storytelling, and also brought back original lore and characters - to honor the past while looking to the future.
- Initiated conversations with both Web2 and Web3 companies, making it clear to them that this is a new team and brand.
🎤 Community Quotes
0N1 Force is on the move this morning, following a report from The Block announcing the anime NFT project had been acquired by a purchasing group that includes former executives from Binance and Yield Guild Games.
❗ Why It Matters
0N1 Force was one of the hottest NFT projects when it dropped in 2021, reaching its peak in August of that year when Logan Paul purchased a rare 1/1 for 188 ETH (~$623,000 at the time). Since then, 0N1 Force went through a slow bleed, with the project's floor price sitting below 0.30 ETH during the summer of 2022. The floor price has shot up in recent weeks amid sale rumors, which were confirmed today by The Block.
Acquisitions in the NFT space are not unprecedented. Today's news follows a similar acquisition last week when Hadeswap acquired Solana NFT project SolanaMonkeyBusiness. Perhaps the most successful example of an NFT acquisition to date was Luca Netz's purchase of the Pudgy Penguins in April of 2022 for $2.5m.
🔍 The Deets
- The purchase was led by Old Fashioned Research (OFR) and the sale amount was not disclosed.
- OFR was founded in 2021 by two former Binance execs, and the group launched a $100m fund last year.
- OFR plans to revitalize 0N1 Force by deploying "significant funds into the growing 0N1 Force franchise, with a view of establishing it as a leading metaverse-native IP."
- 0N1 Force's original founders are no longer with the team, and current project lead Henry Finn (aka Starlordy) will become CEO.
