Each Wrapped Punk is an original Cryptopunk that has been converted into an ERC-721 Non-Fungible Token. The Cryptopunks were one of the earliest Non-Fungible Tokens, created before the ERC-721 standard existed. In fact, the ERC-721 standard was inspired by the Cryptopunks.
Wrappedpunks is an open-source smart contract that converts any original Cryptopunk into a standard ERC721 non-fungible token. The contract is fully decentralized and was deployed in September 2020. It was verified on etherscan.io and can be interacted with at the address 0xb7F7F6C52F2e2fdb1963Eab30438024864c313F6.
You can use wrappedpunks.com to wrap your Cryptopunk. Alternatively, you can interact directly with the smart contract via etherscan. Instructions for doing so can be found here.
After receiving the Wrapped Punk in your wallet, you can use it with any platform that is compatible with the ERC-721 standard, such as Opensea. However, it's important to note that only the wallet that owns the Wrapped Punk can retrieve the original Cryptopunk. If you transfer or sell your Wrapped Punk, your wallet will no longer have access to the Cryptopunk.
