20 artists. 20 unique pieces of art.
Artist names revealed after the mint.
Once live, PROOF Collective NFT holders will have the ability to mint one Grail per PROOF Collective membership NFT held. During the open minting window, the artist identities are hidden for all. Once the minting window closes, PROOF will host a live streaming event to reveal the artists.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I participate in the mint, and what will they cost?
To mint, you'll need to hold the PROOF Collective NFT. Apart from the Grails mint, your membership includes access to our private Discord, early access to the PROOF podcast, in-person events, and other upcoming collaborations created exclusively for PROOF Collective members. Cost to mint will be .05 ETH.
I'm thinking of buying a PROOF Collective NFT. Is there anything to be aware of?
Yes. PROOF Collective membership “perks” are tied to our Terms of Use. Additionally, if you're interested in minting a Grail, and minting has begun, please check to make sure the PROOF Collective NFT you are purchasing hasn't been used to mint a grail, as there is only one Grails mint per PROOF Collective NFT. PROOF makes no guarantee of NFT eligibility.
How do NFT sales proceeds and artist royalties work?
100% of primary sales are pooled together and split amongst participating artists. 100% of secondary sale royalties go directly to the artist responsible for the work.
I'm not a PROOF Collective Member is there any other way to purchase a Grail?
Yes. As Grails members mint the NFTs, undoubtedly, some will be listed for sale on the OpenSea marketplace. You can purchase these before or after the reveal process.
How many Grails will be minted in total?
There are 1,000 total PROOF Collective membership NFTs, each eligible for one mint. Artists will also be gifted their genesis mint (20 in total) and two additional mints (20*2=40); PROOF will also mint one of each (20) for our collection and gallery. Team divergence (smart-contract developer) will be gifted two mints for their coding support. So the theoretical maximum would be 1000+20+40+20+2 = 1,082 across all artworks. That said, we don't expect every pass holder to mint. Minting numbers of each artwork will vary based on the popularity of that individual artwork.
Which chain will Grails be minted on? What about carbon emissions?
Grails NFTs will be minted on the Ethereum L1 main chain. We eagerly await the upcoming Ethereum transition to (eco-friendly) Proof of Stake consensus. Until then, PROOF will carbon offset all smart contract deployment and initial Grails mints through Aerial. An offset certificate will be posted here once minting is complete.
