A collection of 2022 unique NFTs
hand-drawn by artist Marek Ehrenberger
initiating a web3 philanthropic community.
They are blooming, they are mindful, their point of view is distinctive and rather disruptive. Some of them are mesmerizing mystics and Gaia worshippers, others are digital mages lost in the metaverse. Sometimes they swallow magic mushrooms to break through the limits of their minds; at other times they just go with the flow – until they don’t. The Divergents are here to reconfigure the new world paradigm.
Recognising the overwhelming impact of humanity on the planet, we are responding to the challenges of universal responsibility and sustainability – each in a very individualistic way. We are The Divergents, 2022 unique characters divided into 10 tribes of different human mindsets. We welcome 2022 as a year of positive change. Let’s meet in the DAO to fund benefactory projects and govern the community treasury.
Each Divergent is a unique artwork hand-drawn by artist Marek Ehrenberger and stored as an ERC-721A token on the Ethereum Blockchain. It grants you one vote for governance in the DAO.
The Divergents are divided into 10 core human
mindsets. You can choose which character is
closest to your heart. Your choice defines the role
you will assume in the DAO.
There is a rumour of 22 special characters roaming
among the Divergents. This special character can
be claimed to our most passionate collectors.
The DAO treasury will receive 33% of the net proceeds from the public mint. With more to come from royalty fees and future NFT collections, it heralds a bright future for the DAO.
The Divergents welcome 2022 as a year of positive
change and a community-driven path. Nominate
your own cultural and benefactory projects in the
DAO to receive financial backing.
Season 2 of The Divergents will appear in Q3/2022.
Current NFT holders will have an opportunity to receive free NFTs, early access & other benefits to usher in the next wave of the movement.
The Divergents are ready to transform the NFT space, but also our precious planet. Be part of this fascinating social experiment, choose one of the 10 human mindsets closest to your heart and together, let’s divert!
unique personalities who divert Planet Earth
divided equally, so every tribe has 200 members

Whether you are a visual artist, musician, filmmaker, or writer, you are the lightning rod through which the Universe expresses itself. Your contribution to the global village is invaluable.
You understand that animals are a vital part of our ecosystem, and as such, need our protection. A vegan, vegetarian, wildlife conservationist or animal sanctuary carer, you are a voice to the voiceless.
In AI, AR, VR, 3D or gaming, you see the digital realm as the natural extension of you. By navigating the virtual world with an ease that borders on the visionary, you help make it functional and user-friendly.
You see our planet as a living, breathing organism, a biosphere perfectly attuned to maintaining life. You are passionate about sustainable development, biodiversity, and innovation to holistically reshape the future.
You stand by the high principles of peace, justice and duty to your fellow man. You express yourself in acts of kindness, charity and philanthropy. You don’t explain your philosophy, you embody it.
You are a profound defender of human rights. You believe the ties that bind us are stronger than those which keep us apart. You call out sexism, racism, homophobia and gender-based discrimination wherever you find it.
You acknowledge your spiritual being, and look for transcendence in the everyday. You rely on self-awareness and intuition and you help others come back to themselves through meditation, centering and healing.
Your dynamic ideas are lending themselves seamlessly to the real world through politics and the social sciences. A philosopher at heart and teacher in spirit, your influence reaches far beyond the page or social media.
By thinking outside the box, you drive society forward in science and industry. By engineering a brighter, more efficient future, your revolutionary mechanistic notions move both minds and the wheels of progress.
You are convinced that we can all do better - in business, finance and leadership. Your strategic skills make you a start-up pioneer, entrepreneur or corporate rule-breaker. You are a calculated risk-taker and disruptive thinker.

You can use your NFT as PFP (picture for proof and profile picture). By this, you manifest that you are not indifferent to the overwhelming impact of humanity on our planet and that you want to stand alongside other global Divergents to restore balance and assume a role in universal responsibility. To do so, we will unite our efforts in the DivergentDAO and make the first steps towards positive change. You will be a member of one of the 10 tribes of Divergents (based on 10 human mindsets) and be able to vote on the best initiatives to be funded. By holding one of the Divergents you will be able to take part in our Anti-Divergent gamified event, have a chance to receive a free NFT from our Season 2 launch and have early access to other benefits. We will also work on partnerships with other NFT projects and external companies to provide benefits for our Divergent community.
A Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) is a relatively new concept, inspired by the decentralization of cryptocurrencies. DAOs are transparent as their financial transactions are run on the blockchain. It's a revolutionary concept because it’s an innovative way to structure organizations to achieve a certain goal as an anonymous digital community. Each DAO member has the opportunity to participate in the process of decision making (governance). DivergentDAO is a one-of-a-kind social experiment, not only because it is based on 10 human mindsets, but also because part of our vision is to provide financial backing for projects that aim to create positive change on our planet. Within their tribe, members of DivergentDAO can initiate their own benefactory and cultural projects for both physical and digital communities. Our intention is to build DivergentDAO into a durable global platform that works with an altruistic community spirit. Find out more in the article “How will DivergentDAO use NFTs to initiate positive change from the bottom up” or join our Discord channel to ask us directly.
If the collection is not minted out, we will continue with our marketing initiatives, cooperation with other projects and follow our road map as planned to meet all the commitments. We will still welcome new Divergents, as it is a crucial part of the whole project and its destiny. The beginning of the Divergent movement may be gradual, but it is still significant.
