Galxe, a permissionless infrastructure protocol that powers on-chain credentials with plug-and-play NFT modules, today announced the Shadowy Super Coder NFT Pack in partnership with Tenderly, Alchemy, Polygon, Gitcoin, Ankr, Parsiq, Torus, Quicknode, Curvegrid, and OneKey. The NFT pack is available starting today and is eligible to over 100,000 Ethereum smart contract developers.

The inspiration of this NFT pack comes from a previously trending meme on Twitter when U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren expressed that “Crypto Puts Financial System in the Hands of ‘Shadowy Super-Coders,’” according to the news from Decrypt. While crypto skeptics make criticisms, we want to give tributes to those amazing and innovative developers.

The founding partners of this initiative include Tenderly, Alchemy, Polygon, Gitcoin, Ankr, Parsiq, Torus, Quicknode, Curvegrid, and OneKey. All founding partners share the same goals of recognizing and rewarding blockchain developers who have contributed to the ecosystem. Together, they contributed over $300 million USD worth of exclusive perks that are useful and beneficial to developers.

“The Shadowy Super Coder NFT Pack provides a real value to developers in the space, especially for those just starting out. Speaking from experience, I would’ve loved to be able to claim an offer that allows you to try and use many premium services for free, just like this one,” explains Bogdan Habic, Co-Founder of Tenderly, on the vision and benefits of the “Shadowy Super Coder” NFT Pack: The Project Galaxy team did a great job putting this together. We are very excited to participate in an event like this.”

banteg, a core developer at Yearn Finance, also referred to this NFT pack as “a definite hacker survival toolkit to support aspiring shadowy super coders. It’s your guiding light in the dark forest, your shining armor to safely venture into the depths of the unknown, helping you to shape the future you desire with your shadowy super heart.”

The NFT pack will be launched on Galxe on August 24th, 2021 at 7:00 am Pacific Time.
