Latest DigiDaigaku Heroes News

Limit Break CEO Gabriel Leydon announced the introduction of creator token contracts as a solution for enforceable on-chain royalties and programmable royalty contracts.

❗ Why It Matters

Projects can utilize the Creator Token Contract, ERC721-C, to control the transfer of NFTs between wallets, and it's designed to enforce royalties and ensure NFT creators are paid for their work.

ERC721-C eliminates workarounds and makes on-chain royalties enforceable through the use of transfer security policies that allow creators to decide how permissive token transfers are for their own collections, which will open the door to new forms of royalties that can reward both creators, communities, partners, and affiliates.

The Details

• Limit Break is open-sourcing a new augmentation to the ERC721 standard, ERC721-C (C for Creator).
• Programmable royalties contract V1.1: On-chain royalty settings on a per NFT basis capable of programmable payments, splits, derivatives, and more. For example, the original minter of an NFT could theoretically receive 100% of the royalties from that individual NFT in perpetuity.
• Smart contract whitelisting options and capabilities: Developers have the option to control which smart contracts can interact with the NFT. This will allow developers to permanently block any exchange or smart contract so that there are no workarounds.
• Creator Token Contracts are compatible with various token types, including ERC721, ERC721-A, AdventureERC-721, and ERC1155.
• Limit Break open-sourced the Adventure ERC721 standard for community use, which offers hard and soft staking mechanics and parallel questing. Staking rules are implemented in one or more external adventure contracts for increased flexibility.
• Gabe added the disclaimer that Limit Break hasn't determined how it plans to use ERC721-C for its own NFT collections yet.

🎤 Founder Feedback

9/ Please note that while Limit Break is excited about the potential of the Creator Token Contracts and how they can transform the NFT ecosystem, we have not yet determined how we plan to use ERC721-C contracts within our own NFT collection. ✌🏻

DigiDaigaku Bitcoin Ordinals are coming soon, according to @DigiDaigaku's tweet yesterday.

The Details

• Snapshot to be taken on Monday, May 1st, of the Ethereum blockchain on block 17164466
• If you have a DigiDaigaku Genesis at that time, you will be eligible for a free Chibi BTC version of your Digi.

❗ Why It Matters

DigiDaigaku's Chibi Genesis collection will be Limit Break's first foray into the world of Bitcoin Ordinals, and other projects will consider following a similar blueprint if this new collection on Bitcoin turns out to be a success.

The Genesis collection isn't cheap and holds a 3.77 ETH floor price at the time of writing, but it's a nice development for Genesis holders that they can receive a Chibi Bitcoin Ordinal for free.

🎬 Take Action

• If you hold a DigiDaigaku Genesis, the ETH snapshot will occur at approximately 3:00 a.m. ET on Monday, May 1, 2023.
• Make sure your Genesis is in a hot wallet, not a multi-sig wallet like Safe (previously known as Gnosis Safe).
• If it is in a smart contract wallet like Gnosis, the recommendation is to delegate to a hot wallet using delegate.cash. If you don’t, then ownership can't be verified, and you won’t receive your Ordinal.

The combinations of NFTs burned to create the potion produce different outputs, with varying levels of classes and attributes. A recipe list is available on DigiDaigaku's website, which provides guidance on what users can expect when crafting their potion. 

Villains will be broken into different classes based on their strength, with the following structure:

• MYTHIC (Best Super Villain)
• OYABUN (Super Villain)
• SAIKO-KOMON (Super Villain)
• WAKAGASHIRA (Super Villain)

The class of Villain created will impact the levels of future attributes, according to the site. Teased attributes include weapons, calligraphy, and enhancements:

🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨@digidaigaku Genesis and Hero Dark Spirits have been revealed! They look incredible BUT you will soon be burning Dark Spirit NFTs for POWERFUL POTIONS that will be used to upgrade you Villain into SUPER VILLAINS!

More info on Potions SOON! pic.twitter.com/UN9kUN99PW

— Gabriel Leydon (FREE,OWN) (@gabrielleydon) December 1, 2022

The Dark Spirits collection holds a 0.65 ETH floor, with only one sale post-reveal. Leydon hinted that the NFTs will soon be burned to create potions, which upgrade Villains into Super Villains. 

The project also announced a reveal competition on Thursday, encouraging users to post their Dark Spirits on Twitter for a chance to win a 1/1 commissioned art piece.

The reveal comes on the heels of parent company Limit Break's recent Super Bowl announcement, with a free DigiDaigaku Dragon mint coming via QR Code during the globally-televised game. 

DigiDaigaku leader and Limit Break co-founder Gabe Leydon provided an update on what's next for the DigiDaigaku ecosystem, in a tweet Wednesday night.

There are 4 major items upcoming:

• A collab with Ether Orcs (with another adventure key airdrop)
• Reveal of the Digi Genesis Spirits and Hero Dark Spirits
• Release of the Dark Spirit crafting recipe list for potions
• A Villains WhiteList process for DAOs and Groups

He also promised more coming soon.

The DigiDaigaku caught some new whale backing during a late Tuesday evening Twitter Spaces, where Gabe came on and spoke during a time of major volatility and picked up new fans (holders) in Deeze, Farokh, and Soby. 

The floor prices did take a hit in yesterday's market fallout though, with the DigiDaigaku Genesis floor at 10.8 ETH (-6% on the week), the Digi Spirits at 5.5 ETH (-25%), and the Digi Heroes at 3.4 ETH (-42%).

DigiDaigaku is creating a 10,000-edition collection of Villain NFTs, Limit Break co-founder Gabriel Leydon tweeted Monday, amid an airdrop to DigiDaigaku Genesis and Hero NFT holders.

DigiDaigaku Genesis and Hero (Royal and Warrior) NFT holders will receive two Dark Spirit NFTs in today's airdrop and Rouge Heroes will receive one Dark Spirit — airdrops that will allow holders to mutate the upcoming Villain NFTs.

"Villains become Super Villains when they are mixed with a potion! There will not be enough potions for everyone. It will be up to the collectors of Genesis and Heroes to decide what to do with their potions," said Leydon. "The potions will greatly effect (sic) the traits of the Villains! What potions are made and how many will be available to Villains will be entirely up to the Genesis and Hero collectors! Will they keep them and maintain their bloodlines? I think many will!"

DigiDaigaku Genesis and Hero holders will receive an allowlist spot to mint the Villians. The rest will be a free mint. There are currently a combined 3,840 Genesis and Hero NFTs.
