An NFT collection of 10,420 digital cats was put up for sale at 0.35 ETH each. Owners of the assets will gain access to episodes of the show. The project uses the proceeds from the sale to fund production of the series.

The token sale was not without problems. The surge in demand pushed up Ethereum network fees, and some did not receive tokens. As a result, according to Dune Analytics, users lost 344 ETH while attempting to purchase the project’s NFT.

Analysts joked that “the cats again clogged” the Ethereum network, alluding to the CryptoKitties episode.

Stoner Cats partner and Mila Kunis’s husband Ashton Kutcher said the team would personally gift ETH to cover all failed transaction fees.

He also assured that the team “followed industry standards and did not detect any glitches.”

Some NFTs are already selling on the OpenSea marketplace—for example, a token depicting a character voiced by Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin.

Besides him, the show’s characters are voiced by stars such as Jane Fonda, Seth MacFarlane, Chris Rock, and Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher themselves.

Earlier, Buterin appeared in a Kitchen Talks video by Kunis and Kutcher, explaining what Ethereum is and how it works.
