''"Long, long ago, four billion MoonCats were lost in space. The digital cats were doomed to languish in the wasteland of forgotten [[blockchain]] projects —until now. If you’ve followed [[OpenSea]]’s [[NFT]] ranking list over the past few days, you may have noticed a new, mysterious project called “[[Wrapped Tokens|Wrapped]] MoonCatsRescue” taking the chart by storm.''

''Back in 2017, shortly after the advent of the first NFT art project, [[CryptoPunks]], but before CryptoKitties unleashed an unprecedented [[Ethereum]]-based mania, two developers calling themselves “Ponderware” set out to create blockchain-collectible cats.

During this time, users paid nearly [https://twitter.com/J_vanDuijn/status/1370472558244601858?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1370472558244601858%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fdecrypt.co%2F61316%2Fan-ancient-nft-project-called-mooncats-is-eating-up-ether $600k USD] in [[gas]] fees for MoonCat rescues."''
