How to Claim Your NFT
If you've never minted an NFT before, we've put together a quick guide to help you! To mint an NFT on the Ethereum blockchain, you'll need Ether (ETH) to pay for gas, and a wallet to hold your NFT.
Note, this NFT is non-transferrable and exclusively available to Hannah Grey Fund I limited partners (our investors) and our portfolio founders. To claim this free NFT, you have two options:
Option 1: White glove service, Hannah Grey team will airdrop it directly to your wallet (you will still need to create a wallet, and share the public address).
Option 2: For the full mint experience, read on below. Minting can be done on desktop or mobile, but if it's your first time, we recommend desktop to reduce friction.
①
Create a Wallet
Create an Ethereum wallet that you can use to conduct your transactions and hold your NFTs. For this mint, we support Metamask. You can install it as a browser plug-in from this link: Install Metamask.
If you would like your NFT airdropped to you, please email the Hannah Grey team your public wallet address (you’ll see a tab that says “share public wallet”). Once we airdrop it, it’ll automatically show up in your wallet.
If you’d like to mint on your own, read on:
②
Buy ETH
The easiest way to buy Ether is to use a crypto exchange. If you haven’t purchased crypto yet, we recommend setting up a Coinbase account, which can be done on their desktop of mobile app. Note: The Coinbase.com account is different from a Coinbase Wallet account. It is an account for Coinbase's exchange, which allows you to trade currencies like USD for cryptocurrencies.
Note, while the NFT is free, you’ll need ETH in your account to cover the cost of “gas” - which is a transaction fee, or “tax” for minting on the blockchain. The cost of gas varies depending on the network traffic - e.g. how many other people in the world are also transacting on the blockchain at that moment in time. For context, 0.02 ETH (roughly ~$35), should be more than enough for this transaction.
③
Send Ether to your Metamask Wallet
Once you've bought your Ether, transfer it by sending it to the address of the Metamask wallet you just created. You can find your Metamask address by going to “share my public address”, then copying and pasting that into Coinbase.
Now you're ready to mint an NFT!
④
Register your wallet on Premint
Because this NFT is exclusively for our LPs and founders, every wallet is required to be registered with an approved email (every qualified email of our founders and LPs will work). Visit our private, password protected premint site.. Click connect your wallet, enter your email, you’ll be prompted to “Sign”, and then you’ll be registered to claim.
⑤
Mint
Once your Metamask wallet is registered on premint, you may now go to our minting site mint.hannahgrey.com to claim your NFT.
Click on the “Connect Wallet” button on the upper right to connect your MetaMask wallet, you’ll again then be prompted to “sign” the transaction to approve connecting. Once that’s done, Click “Mint” to mint your Hannah Grey Fund I NFT. A screen noting the gas price will pop up (likely less than $10 worth of Ethereum, which you should have in your wallet from the Coinbase purchase). Click “Approve”.
The transaction should take a minute or two and then be complete. When you "mint" an NFT, you're interacting with a smart contract on the blockchain and making a transaction to create a new token under that contract, one that you own
If you have any questions or difficulties - please reach out to Jessica or Michael - we are here to help!

FAQ
- Why can’t I mint? I should be on the list.
-
There could be a couple of reasons for this.
- Please verify that your connected Wallet is the one you registered on Premint.
- If this still doesn’t work, it is possible there may have been a typo. Please provide your Wallet address to the Hannah Grey team, and we will add you to the pre-mint list.
- What is an NFT?
- An NFT stands for “Non-fungible token” and is a fancy way of saying it’s a unique, one-of-a-kind digital item that users can buy, own, and trade. Some NFTs’ main functions are to be digital art and look cool, and some offer additional utility. Think of ours like a rare piece of art that demonstrates your support for diversity and inclusion in the tech community, while also providing access to virtual events for holders.
- What’s a wallet? How do I get one?
- Your crypto wallet is where you can view your cryptocurrency assets and transactions, all in one place. It’s also where you confirm any transactions in process. Different wallets have different features. For example, some allow you to view NFTs from a smartphone. Popular wallets include Coinbase and Metamask. You can purchase Ethereum on all the major exchanges, including Coinbase, Gemini, Coinlist, and Binance.
- What is minting?
- NFTs are created through a process called minting. On the Ethereum network, a command is run that creates the NFT as an immutable record, providing it with a unique hash that contains all of the metadata. The metadata stores key contextual information about your NFT, like its current ownership and transaction history. Sites including opensea.io and etherscan.io allow you to view your NFT collection and NFTs in other collections.
- What is gas or minting fees?
- The blockchain depends on processing power provided by a decentralized network of computers. Minting fees, often called “gas fees,” are what the members of this network earn in return for the processing power they provide. Gas fees can fluctuate according to the amount of traffic on the blockchain at any given moment but cannot be avoided. Think of it like the cost of doing business on the blockchain.
- What is the supply of the collection?
- This is an exclusive and limited supply made available only to LPs, Portfolio Founders, Venture Partners, and their teams who were involved in Hannah Grey Fund I. Once all NFTs are distributed, any leftover supply will be “burned,” meaning that they will be permanently deleted from the blockchain so that they cannot be minted by anyone else in the future.
