Latest Sappy Seals News
Cobie, a notable crypto trader and personality, began a year long quest to $1 million through NFT trading.
🧐 Wait, What?
Early this afternoon, Cobie tweeted the following:
The Deets
- Trades must be peer-to-peer
- No swapping the NFTs for ETH or stablecoins
- Initial sale 0.08 ETH
- Only 50 swaps allowed
The Bulk
Shortly after tweeting the first offer of friend No. 22 from the Forest, No collection, Cobie received a flurry of replies from NFT holders. Those offers included multiple Tubby Cat NFTs, a Pudgy Rod, Super PUMA and more.
Ultimately, he accepted the offer of another known crypto trader, Cryptopathic, for one Max Pain and Frens NFT from XCOPY.
Shortly thereafter, the wallet holding the Max Pain and Frens NFT traded it for a Sappy Seals NFT.
📊 By the Numbers
Thus far in only two trades, Cobie has moved from a 0.08 ETH purchase to a 0.54 ETH valuation based on the current Sappy Seals floor.

🎬 Take Action
You can follow the progress on Twitter or via the trading account's activity on OpenSea.
Sappy Seals announced the upcoming rollout of a roadmap of sorts, "The Grand Plan."
❗ Why It Matters
Sappy Seals acknowledges an aversion to roadmaps. But as the project itself puts it, roadmaps "explain just how much is in store for everyone".
Thus, the Sappy Seals will go forward with "The Grand Plan".
What It Means
This year, Sappy Seals has already had Meme Machine, Sappy React, NYC Events, Digital Artifacts, St Jude Donations, and the introduction of the Sappy Seals Universe with the Travelling Sealsman.
But the project promises that this is only the start and to "expect a lot more content like this as we begin to level up the brand and embellish the ecosystem."
🎤 Founder Feedback
A while ago I said that we would never release a roadmap again. I lied. Let's kick things up a gear.wab.eth
An auction for a first edition "Travelling Sealsman" collectible on Bitcoin runs through tomorrow at 2:00 p.m. ET, according to an announcement from the project.
❗ Why It Matters
Bitcoin NFTs and Ordinals were main topic of conversation for a time, right before both Blur and OpenSea put their own names up in lights last week. Sappy Seal enthusiasts can set aside all the chatter around Blur bids for a day, and instead bid their $PIXL on a first edition Travelling Sealsman genesis collectible on Bitcoin.
Free Ordinals are also apparently available for those that complete the quests.
The Details
- Standard auction format where participants bid in $PIXL, with the tokens locked until the auction is over at 2:00 p.m. ET tomorrow.
- The top 6 bidders will receive a random Digital Artifact (as the top 5 runners up will also get one).
- Quests will be revealed incrementally. Each quest will also have free ordinals up for grabs, with later quests increasing in difficulty.
📊 By the Numbers
The leading bidder is currently travelingsealsman.eth [who notably spelled "traveling" correctly, and differently than how the Sappy Seals project spells it].
At the time of writing, 250,000 $PIXL converts to about 1.29 ETH (~$2,116 USD).
🎬 Take Action
Those interested in bidding (or completing the Quest 2 Earn "for the poors", as the website puts it) can go to artifacts.sappyseals.io.
- Quest No. 1 is the easiest, as you can enter the draw by merely retweeting the auction announcement post.
- Quest No. 2 is to irritate a Bitcoin maxi.
- Quest No. 3 is to create your own Digital Artifact.
- Quest No. 4 and No. 5 - TBD

This event marks the beginning of the new era of Sappy Seals. It's time to reinvent how IP building and storytelling is done.wab.eth (FREE,OWN)
Sappy Seal's Bitcoins Ordinal mint will take place tomorrow, Feb. 17 and will be open to the public and Sappy Seals holders, according to an announcement from the project.
❗Why It Matters
With Ordinals being the talk of the space for the past few weeks, Sappy Seals is providing a chance for holders and non-holders to get their hands on a Digital Artifact for FREE. More information will be released tomorrow, however, it seems to involve some challenges and the Sappy Seal's native token, $PIXL.
The Deets
While we don't have all of the information until tomorrow, here is what we do know so far:
- It will incorporate $PIXL
- The process begins tomorrow (2/17) at 3:00 p.m. ET
- The Total Supply will be 101 NFTs
- A BTC wallet is not needed.
- A majority of the supply is allocated for Sappy Seals holders.
Sappy Seals will host a free, gamified mint on Bitcoin, according to a tweet from project founder wab.eth.
❗Why It Matters
Bitcoin NFTs have surged in popularity and price in recent weeks as thousands rush to inscribe Ordinals on the leading cryptocurrency. Many ETH projects, including OnChainMonkey and Purrnelope's Country Club, have explored Ordinals as a benefit to holders, and now Sappy Seals will join the mix. Seals holders and the general public will have a chance to get their first Bitcoin NFT through the gamified mint.
The Deets
Only a few details have been released about the upcoming collection, but the most notable are listed below:
- Sappy Seals holders will gain priority access.
- The general public will also have an opportunity to participate.
- The mint will be free, and will not require a Bitcoin wallet.
🎬 Take Action
Although there is not an immediate action, in response to a community member, wab.eth indicated that Seal holders may wish to stake their Sappy Seals NFTs.
