Digital artist Jack Butcher, creator of the Checks NFT collection, launched "8," an open-edition digital-art project using X Money payments to distribute generative artwork. Participants sent exactly $8 through X Money, entered an Ethereum address in the payment memo, and used each payment’s transaction ID as the random seed for a unique piece. Butcher later reported about 7,162 participating X accounts and 25,225 unique wallets, while roughly 260 users sent more than $8 in a single payment and will receive refunds for the excess. The project opened on September 20, 2026, and closed at 8 p.m. Eastern Time on September 21. As of the latest update, fulfillment remained dependent on matching payment records with participant submissions, and public on-chain distribution metrics had not been disclosed.
