Reveal News & Articles

Jack Butcher tweeted the reveal for Opepen Set 005, and the opt-in window closes in 48 hours.

The Deets

• 005: VVR is by @jackbutcher.
• The opt-in window closes Wednesday at 3 p.m. ET.
• 005 had to reach 20x oversubscription / 2000% demand to go live, which it already has.

❗ Why It Matters

Jack released VVR in the midst of the mania around today's announcement of Apple Vision Pro, Apple's new upcoming $3,499 augmented reality headset.

And the drop has been well received, as it has already surpassed the 2000% demand threshold across editions.

Jack Butcher tweeted reveals for Opepen Set 003 and Set 004, and both are now live for opt-in.

The Deets

• 003: Full Circle is by @batzdu.
• 004: Consensus is by @visualizevalue.
• The opt-in window closes Monday at 6 p.m. ET.
• You can opt in to one set per Opepen, but not both with just one.
• Both are already significantly oversubscribed, far surpassing the 200% minimum threshold.
• Metadata will be revealed on Monday.
• As an added bonus, batz's Opepen holders will each be airdropped Bong Rip Opepe next week.

❗ Why It Matters

Opepen PFPs are on fire, and it feels like the focus is squarely back on Jack now. Jack has taken his time to get things right with the drop mechanics, utilizing a unique opt-in mechanic to allow users to "choose" which Opepen packs they are a part of.

This Opepen release also comes amidst the backdrop of the Checks Elements auctions at Christie's over the past week and on the heels of today's Meme Card #103 card drop, "Don't Trust, Check." from @jackbutcher, so there are many in the space that are paying attention to and keying in on Jack's ecosystem right now. Perhaps the recent revival in the appetite for art and the merciful end of memecoin season have been contributing factors too.

📊 By the Numbers

And the Opepen floor is surging now after the market clearly likes Releases 003 and 004.

The official BAYC account tweeted that HV-MTLs have made it through the rift and that the Evo 1's have revealed.

❗ Why It Matters

After teasing yesterday that the HV-MTL collection would reveal sometime this week, the moment has arrived today.

The Details

• There are eight types of HVs, and over 1,050 traits across the collection.
• The trait system for the HV-MTL collection was developed based on a steep rarity scale within each HV-MTL class.
• Your HV-MTL’s token ID is also your HV-MTL’s rarity ranking within the rarity ranking model.

🔜 What’s Next?

Evo-2 is now scheduled for June, as can be seen at mdvmm.xyz.

Yuga Labs' HV-MTL collection will reveal sometime this week. 

The Deets

• Evo-1 reveal previously scheduled for April, delayed until May 
• Collection boasts 8 types, 1050 traits

❗️Why It Matters

Instead of rushing out a product with errors, Yuga took the time to (hopefully) get the HV-MTL reveal right. The collection will start its Evo-1 journey reveal later this week, restarting the timeline for the events to follow, like Evo-2, which is now scheduled for June.

📊 By the Numbers

Though down more than 30 percent in the last month, the collection jumped on the news to a floor price of 1.25 ETH at the time of writing.

Jack Butcher expounded on the mechanics of Opepen's upcoming evolution as part of an expansive tweet thread 🧵 spanning yesterday and today.

❗ Why It Matters

While Jack Butcher made it clear last month that the Opepen PFP project had no official timeline, crypto Twitter's current fascination with the recently launched $PEPE token makes now an ideal time to revisit his open edition dedicated to Pepe the Frog, "the internet's most prolific memetic character."

What It Means

As far as the mechanics go, Opepen packs will be released in 200 drops, with 80 Opepens revealed at a time and then selected to undergo a metadata change (in true @jackbutcher fashion), until it achieves the supply of 16,000 (16,000/80 = 200).

Notably, there are selection multipliers in place that will prioritize Checks Originals holders, who will receive better serials and earlier reveal odds.

The Details

A summary of the takeaways, in the words of Jack Butcher:

• 200 drops ("200 collections within the collection")
• 80 Opepens revealed per drop ("as we release each pack, 80 opepens will be selected and revealed")
• Provably random ("via a provably random algorithm (will open source in the thread here shortly)")
• Metadata changes on existing tokens
• Checks Originals increase the likelihood of your Opepen being revealed in an earlier, lower number drop ("with some selection weights applied to checks originals collectors")
• $0.

OpenSea Pro tweeted that Gemesis NFT holders should check their wallets for the metadata reveal.

The Details

• The rank trait of your Gemesis NFT reflects how early you bought an NFT on Gem.
• Higher ranks correspond to earlier purchase dates, and vice versa.
• Users with ranks in the top 1% now have Gemesis NFTs with special visuals.
• Metadata for Gemesis NFTs that haven’t been minted yet will be revealed after the claiming window closes on May 4th.

❗ Why It Matters

The Gemesis NFT, a gesture of appreciation to the Gem community of users prior to the rebrand to OpenSea Pro, remains a polarizing subject. On one hand, it's a free mint bonus to those who did use the Gem platform previously, with a current floor price of 0.035 ETH (~$73 USD). On the other hand, it's a miniscule token gift with unclear utility that simply isn't in the neighborhood of the rewards that competitor Blur incentivized airdrop farmers with.

🎬 Take Action

If you are eligible (if you used Gem before March 31, 2023) and still haven’t claimed your Gemesis NFT, you can mint it directly on OpenSea: opensea.io/collection/gemesis/drop.

📊 By the Numbers

At the time of writing, 92,566 Gemesis NFTs have been minted out of 180,000, representing 51.4% of the total supply.

The wait is finally over! Doodles' Genesis Boxes can now be opened after these NFTs were originally airdropped to holders eight months ago.

❗ Why It Matters

Genesis Boxes are a key component of the Doodles ecosystem that bridge genesis Doodles with Doodles 2. Specifically, Genesis Boxes contain Doodles 2 early access "beta" passes and wearables that can be equipped to Doodles 2 characters.

🔎The Details

The two wearables in each box are a randomized mix of items, including headwear, tops, bottoms, footwear, and accessories. Once opened, your wearables will be available in your Flow wallet, and you can buy, sell, or explore more Doodles 2 wearables on the Gaia Marketplace.For those who prefer self-custody, a guide is available for unboxing without needing to touch custodial wallets. However, this is not supported by Doodles, and users should proceed at their own risk. KYC will be required in select instances when using a Dapper Wallet, according to the announcement.

Wearables can be classified as Exclusive, Grail or 1-of-1. Collectors have a 100% chance of ripping an Exclusive wearable in each box opening, a 16.6% chance at a Grail wearable and a 0.05% chance at a 1-of-1.

Mocaverse, the PFP project by Animoca Brands, made waves yesterday by teasing its project roadmap and setting its reveal date in a series of tweets.

❗ Why It Matters

This news comes on the heels of a Monday announcement of a $6.6m ApeCoin transfer from Animoca Brands to the MocaApe.eth wallet that is apparently controlled by Mocaverse. Those funds will presumably help ensure Mocaverse is able to execute its roadmap, which was revealed yesterday.

🔎 The Deets

• The roadmap is very cryptic in nature and many Twitter users have been speculating on what some of the items could mean.
• There appears to be references to several NFT communities hidden in the roadmap, including Bored Ape Yacht Club, Yoga Petz and Sappy Seals.
• Some users have also pointed out what appears to be a reference to an ecosystem token.
• The project's reveal date is set for March 17 at 9:00 AM ET.

The Porsche Pioneers Co-Pilots airdrop revealed yesterday, according to an announcement by the project. 

❗Why It Matters

Porsche's web3 journey has been interesting to say the least. The project cut supply shortly after its mint started, sending the floor price skyward. Then the project announced it would send a special airdrop for original minters and not just holders. Combine that with the interesting "Choose Your Road" mechanics and you've got an intricately unfolding web3 project. 

The latest airdrop, Co-Pilots, similarly provides intrigue thanks to comments from Porsche, which seems to be leaning into web3 culture and anticipation of events. "Holding a CO-PILOT with the same road as your 911 NFT might or might not be notable," said the project. 

📊 By the Numbers

Porsche Co-Pilots hold a floor price of 0.1678 ETH at the time of writing and boasts a top sale of 0.65 ETH.
