Who We Are

How it started

021 marks a significant leap from our OG crypto roots, with the inception of reNFT by co-founders Naz and Nick—visionaries who brought unique talents from the gaming industry and computational science to blockchain innovation. 

 

Nick's knack for creating hit games since his youth and Naz's transition from a quantitative developer role have been instrumental in pioneering reNFT. 

How it's going

We have started renft through hackathons, reinvesting all the winnings into the team. 

 

Our dedication to refining NFT rentals led us through numerous models, culminating in successful partnerships, including with Brazil's gaming studio Wildlife, and over 300,000 onchain rentals. 

 

Initiatives like the CryptoPunk delegation registry and the MoonCat marketplace were trailblazers, paving the way for our rebrand. 

The next chapter

Now as 021, we honor our hackathon origins.

 

reNFT Labs' transformation into 021 signifies our commitment to encompass future brands and continue to deliver innovative onchain products. 

 

With each new venture, we embody the "zero to one" philosophy, forging ahead to craft the future of onchain.
