The Bulk
Journey 9 isn't the only major development Cool Cats is introducing. Significant updates to the Cool Score system have been announced, promising a more dynamic and balanced experience for the Cool Cats community.
Among the updates, Shadow Wolf Points have been introduced, contributing 25 points to a holder's Cool Score, subject to a 5% diminishing return for each subsequent Shadow Wolf. This strategic element is designed to make earning points both challenging and rewarding.
The outdated "Participation Scores" have been replaced by "NFT Achievements," recognizing holders of Gold/Silver Season Achievement NFTs, Aurorium, and Umbrium NFTs. This change reflects active participation in Journeys more accurately.
Further changes include adjustments to Cool Pets' contribution to Cool Scores, the removal of the Final Evolution Stage Bonus for Cool Pets, a decrease in the maximum impact from quests, and changes to Cool Cats Football Club (CCFC) scores.

To engage in these journeys, holders must have either a Cool Cat, Cool Pet, or Shadow Wolf. In addition, Fractures, another asset type, must be burned and converted into Shadow Wolves before the mint window closes on May 19 at 3:00 p.m. ET to preserve their utility.
In this second season, the Cool Cats team is introducing two new reward categories. These rewards, unique to each respective group, are divided into four tiers. The reward systems and tiers, carrying distinct significance for the future, look set to heighten the overall participation and excitement around the event.

The Deets

🎤 Founder Feedback
I am proud of the foundation that the world building team created and look forward to what Cool Cats does next. I remain on the board and have an interest in Cool Cats, which in turn means I will continue to advise and help where I can.Lynqnoid

Lynq's departure from Cool Cats means that two members of the founding team have now stepped away from the project to focus on their own projects and experiments. It's ironic timing as the project just launched the Shadow Wolves and recently announced a major partnership with Futureverse (which included a minority equity swap), signaling future moves and promise for the brand.
