NōME

What NōME does

NōME is a solo digital-first art practice founded by Lera NōME (Valeriya Sergienko), operating as a founder-owned individual artist brand without institutional backing. The practice produces AI-generated and generative art distributed as blockchain-native digital collectibles and limited-edition physical prints. Core products span Bitcoin Ordinals collections (I AM NOME, Memberships, Globe, Reincarnation, Circle Walls, Death & Rebirth, Orange Movement, GM Walls) and Ethereum NFT collections (BTC Summer, Breathe Life, Serenity), alongside physical parallax prints sold through shop.nome.art.

The underlying technology stack combines third-party generative AI services (MidJourney for image generation with a two-year custom-trained style; Runway for AI video) with custom on-chain tooling, including recursive Ordinals technology that allows HTML inscriptions to call other inscriptions on Bitcoin, p5.js generative art inscribed directly on Bitcoin without IPFS dependencies, and a custom Bitcoin multisig mobile auction house app. Distribution combines direct-to-consumer e-commerce for physical prints, third-party NFT marketplaces (Gamma for Bitcoin Ordinals, OpenSea for Ethereum), gallery exhibitions internationally (Miami Art Basel, Salone Del Mobile, Blockchain Rio, Stockholm Furniture Fair), and direct commissions.

Revenue derives from one-time NFT sales (1/1 pieces and open/limited editions), physical art prints priced at $1,100 each, custom commissioned artwork, and art residencies or speaking engagements. The customer base consists of NFT and crypto art collectors (primary segment), art enthusiasts purchasing physical prints, and a small set of galleries and museums for exhibitions. The brand has no parent company, no subsidiaries, no funding rounds, and no enterprise contracts; it operates with a team of 1-10 and exhibits across North America, South America, and Europe.
