The Space Cakes collection contains 35 pieces of space and cannabis-themed art, each one a finely crafted cartoon illustration!

In the same post, Alotta Money shared images from his 2001 cannabis-themed book, "Space Cakes."

That makes these works his earliest known blockchain-based art, created 2 years before he minted NFTs on ethereum!

Fast forward to September 5, 2017.

Under the pseudonym Olibith, Alotta Money announces his first purchase of crypto currency.
