A generative collection of 10,000 algorithmic cybernetic mining rigs built on a 24x24 ASCII discrete grid. Rendered natively through cascading CSS box-shadows and deterministically animated keyframes — zero image dependencies, zero JavaScript overhead.
The 11 ultra-rare units (0.11% probability) featuring high-tier chassis, rare stratum cores, and exotic tools.
Each Pixel Miner is generated as an independent, ultra-lightweight HTML document. The animated pixels are drawn purely with CSS cascading box-shadows.
Pixels are defined using container query units (`3.125cqw`) allowing lossless scaling to 4K displays with sharp pixel clarity.
Deterministic 100ms keyframe transitions (`steps(N)`) run on the browser compositor with 0 CPU strain.
RGB Euclidean distance checks ensure chassis, strata, trims, and ores always maintain high contrast.

There are exactly 10,000 unique Pixel Miners (Token #1 to #10,000). The collection is strictly capped and deterministically generated.
Instead of heavy raster PNGs or GIFs, each token is a standalone HTML document. The animated pixels are drawn purely by cascading CSS box-shadows, ensuring permanent, lightweight on-chain rendering on IPFS and web browsers.
Every token's combination of 13 attributes (Tool, Mod, Optic, Pack, Undercarriage, Chassis, Trim, Glass, Panel, Strata, Ore, Wear, Rarity) is verified for 100% uniqueness with 0 duplicate visual signatures in the entire supply.
