Surging interest as collectors rush to secure Meebits and Anomalia NFTs ahead of a mystery drop
August 7, 2025 — The Meebits NFT collection is making headlines once again, this time through a special collaboration with renowned AI artist Chikai Ohazama. The announcement, made via a Meebits blog post, has sparked a flurry of activity across NFT marketplaces, with traders rushing to acquire Meebits and Chikai’s Anomalia NFTs in anticipation of a surprise reward.
A Mysterious Collaboration
In the official post, Meebco—the digital asset studio managing the Meebits IP—confirmed the joint project with Chikai Ohazama. While the details remain under wraps, the team revealed that collectors who hold both a Meebit and an Anomalia NFT in the same wallet by Thursday, August 7 at 10 a.m. ET, will receive a surprise.
“Meebits are art,” the team wrote on X (formerly Twitter), teasing the cross-collection collaboration. “We’re teaming up with @lifeofc on a special collab for Anomalia + Meebit holders.”
To further stir excitement, Meebco is also giving away two Anomalia NFTs to randomly selected Meebits holders who participate by sharing their wallet addresses.
The Meebits Legacy and Meebco’s Creative Expansion
Meebits, a collection of 20,000 unique 3D voxel-style avatars, was originally developed by Larva Labs, the creators of CryptoPunks, and are hosted on the Ethereum blockchain. These low-poly characters were designed for use in the metaverse, gaming environments, and virtual worlds.
The Meebits IP was later acquired by Yuga Labs, creators of the Bored Ape Yacht Club, before being sold to Meebco. Backed by 1confirmation, Meebco is now focused on expanding the Meebits brand through initiatives including merchandise, digital storytelling, art partnerships, and enhanced user engagement.
This latest collaboration with Chikai is part of Meebco’s broader mission to grow Meebits beyond collectibles—blending tech, art, and culture to create immersive and creative experiences.
Who Is Chikai Ohazama?
Chikai Ohazama is a pioneering AI artist and tech entrepreneur known for co-founding Keyhole, the company that evolved into Google Earth following its acquisition by Google. Now based in San Francisco, Ohazama creates cinematic, AI-driven art that explores surreal and emotional human narratives.
His critically acclaimed NFT collections—including Anthrocinematica and Anomalia—are known for their layered storytelling and visual experimentation. Other collections from Chikai include Fish Market, Southern Depression, Wolf Game, Mirrors, Spheres, and Bear Market, showcasing a broad and avant-garde approach to NFT artistry.
Market Reacts: Trading Volume Spikes
The impact of the collaboration was felt almost instantly across NFT trading platforms. In the 24 hours following the announcement, the Meebits collection recorded 59 ETH in trading volume, a sharp 82% increase compared to the previous day. The floor price also climbed from 0.77 ETH to 0.86 ETH, marking a 14% daily gain.
This surge highlights renewed interest in the Meebits ecosystem and suggests collectors are eager not to miss out on the upcoming surprise, especially with an artist as innovative as Ohazama involved.
What’s Next?
As the Thursday deadline approaches, anticipation continues to build around what Meebits and Chikai Ohazama have in store. Whether it’s exclusive digital art, a new drop, or an immersive metaverse experience, the collaboration signifies the kind of cross-genre innovation that’s driving the next wave of Web3 creativity.
For now, the only certainty is that wallets holding both Meebits and Anomalia NFTs are about to get something special—and the community is watching closely.
