Art Blocks, the leading generative Art NFT platform, revealed its new post params function last week, allowing artists and collectors to dynamically transform their collections over time.
Although some collectors have evoked doubts about the new function, clarified Art Blocks, founder Erick Calderon, who goes past SnowFro, that post params simply offer a new mechanism for artists and collectors to express themselves on the chain.
Postparams make different adjustment options possible, so that the collector or artist can change the predetermined properties of the artwork. The function can be applied to a number of properties in the collections, from “changing a color palette to fully changing the visual output of the artwork and everything in between.”
“I think it is great that artists can develop their collections over time (I love surprises). I hate that collectors can adjust their play (they tend to optimize what they think is valuable) …. Postparams feels a bit like cheating. It can be a danger to artists, but why collectors said the art of the art.”
Rodo admitted that he has never been a fan of collector-related collections, but called concern about collectors who simply turned their outputs into the most rare or desired properties in a collection, using the pipe chromy squiggle property as an example.
SnowFro told The Defiant that the new functionality has no influence on existing projects on artificial blocks and that he sees post params as an expansion of the 1-of-1 designs of Async Art, but applied in a whole generative collection.
“Postparams builds massive online multiplayer functionality in the artistic expression that we support with artificial blocks, and I assure you that a number of absolutely stunning contemporary art and experiences will be made with this technology, things we can’t even think of today,” he said.
“The possibility for an artist to add implementations that can encourage collectors to continue to communicate with a work of art over time is really interesting for me … Like, why on earth we would not allow an artist to express himself in this way? Especially if we can do it in a way that not only our passion for unchain expression.
Postparams debuts with an upcoming coin called Ddust from Jiwa.

Although the NFT market struggled in 2025, some collections that are reminiscent of the NFT Bull Run of 2020-2022 Premium prices remain.

Chromie Squiggles, the SnowFro debut collection on the platform and part of the Art Blocks Genesis Series, still recommends a 4 ETH ($ 10,000) price bottom, while Fidenza van Tyler Hobbs, perhaps the most striking artificial block collection, still trades at a 30 ETH ($ 75,000).
