Like DigiDaigaku Genesis, the Castaways Genesis characters will be 'factory' assets — which continue to receive airdrops of other in-game assets.
Users were also able to begin opening treasure chests on Monday, which were airdropped to active users in early November and contain a variety of NFTs in the ecosystem (including Rafts, Islands, and Characters).
The team also detailed more information regarding 'The Homestead Update', a new phase of the Castaways game., in a town hall on Monday.
Castaways Raft and Island holders who circumvent royalties on purchases will not receive future airdrops, project founder Dayton Mills tweeted on Wednesday.
No Royalty = No Airdrop
— Dayton Mills (@daytonmills) November 24, 2022
If you buy a Raft or Island on Blur/elsewhere and skip the royalty you will not receive any of our future airdrops that other holders are entitled to.
Royalties allow us to produce content and deliver free gasless airdrops to our community.
Thank you 🫡
Mills did not clarify whether the policy applied to previous purchases.
The free mint island survival sandbox game recently teased a new airdrop coming on Nov. 28 to Raft, Island, and Island Members.
The floor price of Rafts is currently 13 ETH, while the 500-NFT Islands collection sits at 3.40 ETH.
Holders of DigiDaigaku Adventure Keys — Castaways must use their item in-game by today to earn a 'Treasure Chest' whitelist spot, Limit Break founder Gabriel Leydon tweeted.
Treasure Chests are an upcoming free airdrop, and will contain other items from the Castaways ecosystem — including islands and rafts.
Adventure Keys currently hold a 0.27 ETH floor, up 7 percent over the last week.
Castaways — Rafts sit at a 19.4 ETH floor, but have had only two sales in the last seven days on the 100-item collection. Islands are currently trading at a 2.8 ETH floor.
GM EVERYONE!
