The Collection

Art & inspiration

The Empty Box Club is an NFT PFP collection inspired by the 16 personality types in the MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator). Each NFT is designed to reflect a unique personality, so you can find one that truly represents you. We created this collection to highlight the diversity of human personalities and to offer a visual way for people to connect with their inner selves.

Our goal? To encourage everyone to embrace who they are. The Empty Box Club is about celebrating individuality and understanding what makes each of us different. By linking digital art with human psychology, we are building a community where people can explore their identities and express themselves.

These NFTs are not just cool visuals. They are a reminder that each person is a mix of traits and quirks. The more we understand and accept our differences, the stronger our connections can be.

A step toward embracing everything that makes us human.

Fully On-chain Dynamic Collection

We are also building a fully on-chain, dynamic extension of The Empty Box Club collection.

At a high level, this means that the logic and data that define the NFTs live on-chain instead of depending on external servers.

Technical overview

In a typical NFT setup, the token points to metadata that is stored off-chain, often on IPFS or a centralized server. With a fully on-chain dynamic collection, we are designing the system so that:

  • Core token attributes and metadata are derived or stored directly on-chain.

  • Visual output can be generated deterministically from on-chain data, so anyone can verify how an NFT should look by reading the contract state.

  • The contract exposes clear read functions for traits, states, and rendering related data, making it easy for other contracts and apps to integrate.

This approach aims to reduce external dependencies and make the collection more transparent, verifiable, and composable for builders.

Dynamic behavior

The collection is also designed to be dynamic.

Instead of each NFT being a fixed snapshot at mint time, we are exploring mechanisms where certain aspects of the token can change based on on-chain events, for example:

  • Long term holding or specific interaction patterns with TEBC contracts.

  • Participation in governance, events, or creator programs.

  • Links to other on-chain assets or credentials.

The exact rules and parameters will be defined and communicated before launch, but the guiding idea is simple: your on-chain actions can influence on-chain traits. Your PFP becomes less of a static picture and more of a programmable, evolving identity layer.

For holders and builders

For holders, the fully on-chain dynamic extension is designed to:

  • Create a deeper link between your identity and your on-chain history.

  • Allow new utilities and experiences to be built on top of your NFT over time.

  • Increase transparency about how art and traits are generated and updated.

For builders and partners, our goal is to make TEBC:

  • Composable: other contracts and applications can read state and build on top of it without needing custom off-chain infrastructure.

  • Predictable: the logic for how traits evolve is defined in code and can be inspected on-chain.

  • Standard friendly: designed to work with common NFT tooling, wallets, and marketplaces.

This dynamic layer is designed to complement, not replace, the core collection. We will share more technical details, timelines, and how existing holders can participate in this on-chain evolution as we get closer to launch.

FAQs

What's Your Personality Type?

MBTI, developed on the foundations of Carl Jung's typology theory, is a psychological tool crafted by American psychologists Katharine Cook Briggs and her daughter, Isabel Briggs Myers. This tool aids in identifying and categorizing fundamental personality types based on how individuals think, perceive the world, and make decisions. MBTI establishes a classification system based on the prominent facets of personality, represented by four pairs of concepts:

  1. Extraversion (E) or Introversion (I): Determines how individuals derive energy and interact with the world. Extraverts prefer interacting with others and the external environment, while introverts enjoy solitude and focus on internal contemplation.

  2. Sensing (S) or Intuition (N): Identifies how individuals gather information and generate ideas. Sensors concentrate on specific, concrete data and realities, whereas intuitives focus on ideas and possibilities.

  3. Thinking (T) or Feeling (F): Examines how individuals make decisions. Thinkers rely on logic and reason, while feelers base decisions on personal values and emotions.

  4. Judging (J) or Perceiving (P): Determines how individuals interact with the external world. Judgers prefer organization and planning, whereas perceivers lean towards flexibility and initiating new ventures.

By combining these dimensions, MBTI creates 16 basic personality types, each representing a unique approach to life. While MBTI is not an exact predictor of every aspect of a person's personality, it offers insights into how individuals think, interact, and work. It finds extensive use in personal development, career counseling, and team management.

What is the MBTI test?

The MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) personality test is a method that uses a series of multiple choice questions to analyze human personality. MBTI test results show how people perceive the world around them and how they make decisions in different situations.

Where did the MBTI test originate?

The MBTI test is based on the personality classification theory of Carl Gustav Jung, a Swiss psychiatrist and the father of Analytical Psychology. It was later developed and refined by Katharine Cook Briggs and her daughter, Isabel Briggs Myers, during World War II. MBTI became more widely known and popular after it was presented in the books "Please Understand Me" I and II by psychologist David Keirsey in the 1950s, and it has been applied in practice since 1962.

How many personality group types does MBTI have?

MBTI has a total of 16 different personality group types. This classification is based on the combination of 8 functional and cognitive factors, in the following 4 pairs of opposing attributes:

(I) Introversion - (E) Extroversion

(S) Sense - (N) Intuition

(T) Reason - (F) Emotion

(J) Principle - (P) Flexibility

Do MBTI results change?

Your personality (or MBTI results) can change over time based on factors such as circumstances, mood, self-perception, and worldview at different stages in life. However, according to statistics from The Myers-Briggs Company in 2009, up to 72% of people retesting the MBTI received identical results. This number is much higher than for other personality tests such as DISC or NEO.

Can MBTI predict the future?

MBTI does not have the ability to predict a person's future. It only suggests the kind of person you may be or may become. Personality is just one of many factors that shape your life, so using it as the sole criterion to predict the future is never a wise choice. Instead, use MBTI as a tool to increase self-awareness, maximize your strengths, limit your weaknesses, and make better decisions.

Which is the most common MBTI personality group?

There are currently no perfectly accurate global statistics on the most common MBTI personality group. However, according to the MBTI ® Manual for the Global Step I™ and Step II™ Assessments (Myers, McCaulley, Quenk, & Hammer, 2018) conducted by The Myers-Briggs Company, in a survey of 16,773 individuals across 20 countries, the most common MBTI personality group was ISTJ with about 13%.

Which is the rarest MBTI personality group?

There are currently no perfectly accurate global statistics on the rarest MBTI personality group. However, according to statistics from the MBTI ® Manual for the Global Step I™ and Step II™ Assessments (Myers, McCaulley, Quenk, & Hammer, 2018) conducted by The Myers-Briggs Company, the rarest MBTI personality group was INFJ with about 1%.

We believe that each of us is born as a unique, complex and unpredictable individual.

Therefore, you should not limit yourself to any personality group throughout your life. Live the way you want, do the things you love, and help make this beautiful life even more beautiful.
