CryptoWiener is an Austrian NFT and crypto-art collective that creates hand-drawn pixel-art collectibles stored as ERC-721 tokens on Ethereum. CryptoWiener's Twitter Score is 18 out of 1000 as of September 2026, ranking #55,166 among 486,860 tracked accounts.
CryptoWiener was co-founded by Julia Staudach and five collaborators, with the documented six-member team also including Andreas Humpel, Stefan Schierhuber, Jan Leitenbauer, David Lang, and Bernhard Nessler. The original collection consists of 200 unique, hand-drawn 32×32-pixel portraits of Austrian cultural figures, with David Lang credited as the originator of the concept of digitally immortalizing distinctive Viennese personalities and the creator of the project's original visual style. The collection launched in November 2019 and went on to win an Austrian Blockchain Award in the NFT category. CryptoWiener is also affiliated with VRON.
CryptoWiener has expanded well beyond its original portrait series, producing additional NFT and digital-art initiatives including PixelRebels, WahlWiener, ETH-MEN, Proof of History, Little Vienna, and the on-chain generative-art project geVIENNAratives. The Proof of History series depicts notable events and ideas from blockchain history in the collective's pixel-art style, with its first 16 motifs minted as NFTs on Ethereum. The Pixel Rebels project features pixel characters carrying signs with Viennese expressions and, unlike the original CryptoWiener portraits, are not unique editions. CryptoWiener also collaborated with Ströck and Ogilvy Vienna to produce an exclusive Krapfen-themed NFT.
CryptoWiener has bridged the digital and physical worlds through the PIXELS exhibition, presented at OK Linz from August 26, 2022 through February 26, 2023. The account has published 1,371 posts and has been mentioned by 34 accounts, with 72 total mentions.
