BirdRalph on ApeChain
A collection of 1.089 NFTs on ApeChain. They are based on the CryptoRalph art and attributes which are uniquely combined with the Moonbirds traits.
So basically this is the first time a Moonbirds derivative is based on a real person life (just like CryptoRalph). BirdRalph holders will be able to collected CryptoRalph Token ($CRT) and level-up over time for additional benefits.

Have already a CryptoRalph?
Holder Rewards
CryptoRalph Token ($CRT on Polygon) is the utility token of the CryptoRalph ecosystem and are given to CryptoRalph NFT holders as reward on a daily basis (and soon for BirdRalph and NounRalph as well).
- Level-up your NFT over time
- Collect $CRT as rewards
- Spend your rewards in our Shop
- Low gas fees on Polygon chain
$CRT seriously increases the experience of owning CryptoRalph. But it is not an investment and has NO monetary value.
Utility like this separates a good NFT collection from a GREAT one!
Level-up your CryptoRalph
Owning CryptoRalph NFT and keeping it in your wallet will level it up over time from Standard to Bronze to Silver, Gold and Platinum. With each new Level also the daily token collect is increasing.

NounRalph
Collection of only 99 NFTs
created by artist Alexa Wagner, as a tribute to Nouns.
Nouns not only created the iconic square glasses, they also introduced an identity, community, CC0 / IP, government and treasury approach that is brining NFTs to a next level.

What is CryptoRalph ?
CryptoRalph is a collection of 1.089 NFTs on the Ethereum / Polygon blockchain created by Alexa Wagner, a Munich (Germany) based artist. They reflect the real life of Alexa’s husband Ralph from Toddler, Kid and Young to Midlife until his 50th birthday.
This is the first time generative art expressing a person’s life that is put on the blockchain as collectibles. Each CryptoRalph has a unique set attributes showing details of real Ralph’s life.
The project is inspired by the Crypto Art movement which allows digital collectibles with proof of ownership.
Some additional information and facts:
- CryptoRalph was generated randomly but still each individually is somehow telling a story – to proof this is possible was core of the art project
- Age groups are representing the different stages of real Ralph from kid to young man to midlife until his 50th birthday.
- Attributes are designed according to things that Ralph owned / owns and somehow played a role in his life
- Aliens and Zombies represent more rare and extraordinary moments in real Ralph’s life
- 33 is real Ralph’s lucky number and there are 1.089 CryptoRalph (equal to 33×33)
- First CryptoRalph was created (minted) on 13th September, which is also real Ralph’s birthday !
Why is CryptoRalph a First-of-its-kind NFT?
For the first time a NFT collection reflects the life of a real person and puts it on the blockchain. The artist captured the life of real Ralph (her husband) in 4 phases from Toddler, Kid and Young to Midlife until his 50th birthday.
The very first CryptoRalph creation as a 24×24 pixel art was similar to CryptoRalph #820. Which became the starting point for Age group Midlife. From there the artist worked backwards to Young, Kid and Toddler.
Next step was to create attributes for each Age group – with some being available in more than one group. This resulted in 73 uniquely handcrafted traits. Each of them playing a role in real Ralphβs life either in a specific moment, phase, situation or characterizing him in that Age group.
For the Attributes and traits quite some research was done. Alexa went through thousands of photos from real Ralph, even going into the βarchivesβ from his parents. Quite entertaining, but also a lot of work. See a few examples below on what she discovered and reflected in the art for CryptoRalph.
Why owning CryptoRalph ?
First of all the concept of putting a life of a real person on the blockchain has never been done before. So owning a CryptoRalph is like becoming part of a special community in the history of NFT art.
Secondly, CryptoRalph is limited to 1.089 unique NFTs immutably stored and therefore will probably increase in value over time (this is not an investment advice).
Thirdly there is utility in form of $CRT, which holders collect having CryptoRalph in their connected wallet. $CRT can then be used to buy exclusive NFTs, participate in Raffles and much more to come.
Lastly it is fun to get a piece of life from somebody else π

Who is Alexa Wagner?
Alexa is a Munich (Germany) based artist. In 2007 she opened the VernisArt Studio (www.vernisart.de). There she started to create and sell her work in quite different styles under pseudonyms like Sophia Lordes, Robert Lange and Maurice.
After this initial experimentation phase Alexa focused to work under her own name in 2010 and painted the first black and white in acryl, which became her signature style. Pieces like “Mann mit Hut” (man with hat) and “Zwei Gesichter” (two faces) are highly recognized in the German art scene.
During the following years works like “Neugier” (curiousness) and “Das Alter” (the age) underlined the unique style and impression.
This led to a more form and function orientated phase of her creations in 2015. First, with adjusting her unique black and white acryl style also to ornaments in paintings like “Formen” (shapes). Second, with dimensional surfaces using additional material like linen and glue for “Wellen” (waves).
In 2020 during the COVID-19 lock-down Alexa decided to make best use of the time at home by learning “computers” (supported by her husband Ralph ;-). This opened a complete new dimension of creativity. Inspired by the CryptoArt movement (and her husband) the first work with generative art is CryptoRalph in 2021.
