Cardano Bits were made by a passionate team and even though the road was filled with obstacles, they made it to the finish line. Mistakes were made
and fixed paving the way to today's state of Cardano's Native Tokens. CBits are now part of the CNFT history and will forever be one of the most important

There are eight different types of CBits available: human, alien, abomination, skeleton, shadow, robot, mummy, and zombie. Each type has its own unique traits, giving collectors a wide range of options to choose from.
