ginger all right let me read this off here hi charles we are the ghost chain society gc society for short a group of cardano fanatics whose belief in cardano's open fired into an nft collaboration we love the cardano concept as it's truly decentralized and coupled with the fact that it's the largest cryptocurrency using proof-of-stake blockchain and greener alternative to other similar protocols we have been big fans of you and your work as we are part of the cardano journey from the beginning we relate to every milestone of its journey this fall we came up with the idea of telling a visual story of that journey through a unique collection of nfts we plan to have a five series of nft collections honors honoring the five main eras byron shelley gogan basho and voltaire our first offer in this project is the byron series card deck inspired by the byron era the first and the beginning phase the deck of playing cards visually narrates the story of the first phase of the cardano journey and becoming one of the most trusted blockchains in the world through this digital artistic expression we tell the story of the start of cardano and ada crypto which bears the moniker the ghost chain what the skeptics call it and the first five systematic milestones the byron era we hereby present the ghost chain society byron series dart a deck nft collection the cardiac characters are illustrated as ghosts and inspired by the byron works scope all details in the art are inspired by cardano symbolism the orborus protocol the ada uh block explorers daedalus wallet deadlifts japanese interface arroyo wallet icarus project block storage uh byron test net enhancements support visualization integrations and many more all these work scope milestones are visualized via many real-life characters that provided the inspiration to the cardano team lord byron lady byron ayda lovelace jean carl uh not giancarlo it's jacomo guys jacomo cardano and the magic card aka the joker card based on the man himself charles hoskinson you you and your work has been such an a huge inspiration for us we thank you for creating this amazing blockchain and being a steward of true decentralized financial network that works in the interest of smallholders like us as a gesture of our appreciation we have created these custom hoodies for you adorning the joker card art we hope it brings a smile to your face and keeps you warm the cold out so of course you're gonna ask where the hoodies they're right here how about that and there's another one too okay and finally uh we have something from
