About

Kabu is an NFT project built around a theme of fostering fun and friendship across the digital world, centered on its bear characters and an evolving setting called Sunset City. Originally launched on Abstract, the collection migrated to Ethereum in July 2026.

About Kabu

Kabu describes its mission as fostering fun and friendship across the digital world. The brand's narrative is anchored to Sunset City, framed as a place "where friendships last a lifetime," and Kabu maintains a presence across social platforms including TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube.

The Collection

The Kabu collection consists of 7,000 NFTs and was released through a presale and public mint. Holders connect to the Sunset City world and brand built around the Kabu characters.

Migration to Ethereum

Kabu launched its collection on Abstract in 2025, then migrated to Ethereum in July 2026 (announced by kabuxyz on July 9, 2026). Trading is open on Ethereum; holders who kept their Kabu in an EVM wallet received automatic airdrops on Ethereum, and a migration portal for remaining holders opens July 11, 2026.

Community

Kabu runs community programming including "Kabu Spaces" and whitelist collaborations with other NFT communities. Through a partnership with 223 — a studio that has produced products for web3 brands such as Pudgy Penguins, Creepz, and Chimpers, under JCorp — Kabu aims to expand from web3 into web2 distribution.

Thin entity View research

We can't yet tell you what Kabu is or who's behind it.

Kabu is on the graph as a project with a linked asset, but we don't yet have enough corroborated evidence to characterize what it is, who's behind it, or what it does. What's the best source — an official site, the deployer, or a first announcement — so the record can represent Kabu instead of leaving a stub?
