From Static to Customizable and Interactive PFPs

Ninjas are far more than just profile pictures; each one is a sophisticated JavaScript application integrated within an artistic creation. They incorporate cutting-edge web technologies, including Scalable Vector Graphics, HTML Canvas, Brotli Compression, and Web Assembly.
Each Ninja PFP features an interactive Menu Button inside the inscription. This is a literal button you can click on, allowing you to access all of the application's features. From the menu, you can dynamically alter the dimensions of your Ninja. You also have the flexibility to animate your Ninja with either preloaded animations or custom ones you create or source from the community. Additionally, the Ninja PFPs offer a variety of stickers, easily applicable for social media usage with just one click, thanks to our dynamic overlays.
A unique feature of the Ninja collection is the ability to play SNES games directly within the PFP, courtesy of our on-chain SNES emulator and public domain ROMs. You have the freedom to load any ROM from your computer, or even inscribe your own ROMs, playing them by referencing their inscription ID. In our inscribing SNES ROMs tutorial, we explain how to inscribe them in an encrypted format, which is also supported by our emulator.
We view this as just the beginning of a new era where Bitcoin Ordinal Inscriptions start to surpass Ethereum PFPs and art in terms of innovation. This development introduces the concept of the Programmable Art Layer or Art as an Application (AaaA). We are excited to witness the creative possibilities this new paradigm will unlock in the future.
