@Pixeltoy<br />
Another week another soft rug. May the fleas of a thousand camels<br />
infest your armpits- @CiviliansNFT.<br />
Now that we’ve cleared the air let’s focus on this BUMPER issue<br />
#<strong>20</strong> with a shitload of new content and some fresh NFT pics.<br />
Unfortunately, 40 pages cannot do the Solana space justice. There<br />
are just too many BEAUTIFUL pieces out there and my Twitter feed<br />
does not access all of them. A lot of them I stumble upon at the last<br />
minute.<br />
Enter URS. A fantastic group of artists that have been gathering in<br />
a little corner of Twitter offering support, ideas, encouragement and<br />
guidance. BU_UB | URS started the group some weeks ago and it has<br />
only grown from strength to strength with a ‘who’s who’ of A-Grade<br />
artists. A special tribute 3 page spread at the end of this issue- see<br />
what I’m talking about?<br />
Star Atlas gets a shoutout this time round with their upcoming release<br />
of ships. I cannot deny that the artwork and renderings on these<br />
pieces is top quality. Kudos to the artists and visionary designers<br />
who came up with these images. Incredible.<br />
An interview with PotHeads about their upcoming mint with an<br />
interesting twist. What could be better than a pot? Maybe a pot that<br />
sprouts a random plant that gives rarity attributes? Hell yeah! Great<br />
idea! The utility goes beyond the project itself. Why not tie it to the<br />
storyline of other NFT projects? Batcity Underground perhaps? How<br />
about those Stoned Apes?<br />
Perhaps this is the next frontier to explore AFTER the gaming frenzy<br />
is over? Projects working together to combine their NFTs? That<br />
would be a first!<br />
4<br />
<strong>SHILL</strong> <strong>Issue</strong> #<strong>20</strong>
Personally I would love to see Space Goats work with URS- now that<br />
would be incredible! The artwork from these artists would just blend<br />
so well together. Imagine the possibilities!<br />
Getting ahead of myself? Hell no, we need ideas. This space is all<br />
about ideas and building on each other’s ideas. As long as we are<br />
willing to share freely. Progress!<br />

Finally, we are almost over the hump of December. If you haven’t<br />
bought into your favourite NFT project by now it is almost too late.<br />
The market is about to heat up with a surge leading into the end<br />
of January before a brief colldown and some sideways action as<br />
altcoins grind to new ATH in <strong>20</strong>22. Onboarding new users at a rate<br />
never seen before.<br />
I know first-hand about the new wave coming in. Over the last 2<br />
weeks I have had many students (12-13 yr olds) point at my shirt<br />
and ask “Sir is that an NFT?” They are coming en masse and they<br />
will all want NFT projects that have stood the test of time. It’s up to<br />
everyone in this space to guide them so that their experience is a<br />
positive one. An inclusive one. A welcoming one.<br />

Still uncertainty in the Solana NFT Market // 8 Nov <strong>20</strong>21.<br />
@thugbirdz was the only real mover overnight. floor up from under<br />
30sol and now sitting at 37.50 and holding for now (seems like the<br />
market agrees with me) particularly with more profit taking to come<br />

<strong>SHILL</strong> <strong>Issue</strong> #<strong>20</strong>
in the festive season. I think if you’ve been looking to move into blue<br />
chip projects, @thugbirdz would be the one for me - I think under 30<br />
is a buy.<br />
@DegenApeAcademy did pump a little earlier in the week, but has<br />
fallen 25% in the last 24 hours to currently sit at roughly 25 sol. ngl<br />
this project hasn’t peaked since it peaked at inception. Ever since<br />
then it’s been living in the shadows of @SolanaMBS.. just stating<br />
facts.<br />
Have to mention @MonkeyKingdom_because their floors have<br />
partially artificially risen. floors are at 55sol plus which is straight<br />
up ridiculous lmao.<br />
@StonedApeCrew was the other major mover overnight, floors<br />
sitting rn at 8sol. been seeing these on the timeline the last couple<br />
days. People just love the weed and rightly so.<br />

Solana price edges lower as<br />
bears prepare for 25% drop<br />
Sarah Tran<br />
FXStreet<br />
• Solana price is at risk of falling 25% after it broke below a major level of<br />
support on December 10.<br />
• SOL could be headed toward $128 if the bears continue to control the<br />
narrative.<br />
• Even if the bulls manage to reverse the period of underperformance,<br />
multiple stiff obstacles lie ahead.<br />
Solana price has fallen below a critical level and could now be<br />
headed for a 25% decline as momentum has shifted toward the<br />
downside. SOL struggles to reclaim higher levels as the Ethereum<br />
killer is prepared to plunge toward $128.<br />
Solana price offers bearish bias<br />
Solana price has sliced below the lower boundary of the descending<br />
parallel channel at $175 on December 10 on the 12-hour chart,<br />
suggesting a bearish outlook. The governing technical pattern<br />
projects a 25% nosedive toward $128 if the bulls fail to reverse the<br />
period of underperformance.<br />
The first line of defense for Solana price is at the 61.8% Fibonacci<br />
retracement level at $170. Additional footholds may appear at the<br />
October 6 high at $162, then at the October 11 high at $153.<br />
Solana price may also discover support at the 78.6 Fibonacci<br />
retracement level, which sits at $146. If selling pressure increases<br />
further, SOL may fall toward the pessimistic target at $128.<br />
However, if the bulls manage to reverse the period of sluggish<br />
performance, the first resistance will appear at the lower boundary<br />
of the parallel channel at $174.<br />

<strong>SHILL</strong> <strong>Issue</strong> #<strong>20</strong>
SOL<br />
Solana price will face additional obstacles ahead, first at the <strong>20</strong>0<br />
twelve-hour Simple Moving Average (SMA) at $185, then at the 50%<br />
retracement level at $186.<br />
Further headwind may appear at the 21 twelve-hour SMA at $198,<br />
then at $<strong>20</strong>3, where the middle boundary of the prevailing chart<br />
pattern, the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level and the 50 twelvehour<br />
SMA intersect.<br />
If Solana price manages to slice above the aforementioned hurdle,<br />
SOL will then target the 100 twelve-hour hour SMA at $212. Additional<br />
buying pressure may incentivize the bulls to set sights on bigger<br />
aspirations, targeting the upper boundary of the parallel channel at<br />
$236.<br />

POTHEADS<br />
An interview with @Pot_Heads_NFT<br />
Why did you start the PotHeads? Tell us your origin story and a little<br />
about the team.<br />
We created Pot Heads because we wanted NFTs that you could<br />
truly interact with and evolve. Pot Heads does just that - you’ll mint<br />
Pot Head with the munchies and it’s just waiting to sprout. We’ll<br />
be airdropping Plant Food to holders (pizza, brownies, and other<br />
munchies), and once received, you can go to our site and “feed” your<br />
plant. This will allow your Pot Head to grow a unique plant from the<br />
existing base. There are only 1,4<strong>20</strong> Pot Heads to be minted.<br />
We have two incredible developers, @calebporzio (creator of Livewire<br />
& AlpineJS) and @Jvl993 who can make all this backend magic<br />
happen. And once this is live on the site, the ability to customize and<br />
evolve any NFT in our current and future collection will be seamless.<br />
We also have our digital artist, @ouch_itsnice, and me (@Papa_<br />
MooMoo) working on the project.<br />
What do you see as your biggest accomplishment so far- considering<br />
the project is only a few weeks young.<br />
We’ve been working on the project since early September and<br />
started to build our social media out in October. So far, I feel our<br />
biggest accomplishment has been gaining some traction on a<br />
few fun teaser videos we’ve created to showcase the project and<br />
explore the lore behind the Pot Heads. We have a few more of<br />
these in the works and they are so much fun to create! You can see<br />
our most recent one here: https://twitter.com/Pot_Heads_NFT/<br />
status/1466131647951249416?s=<strong>20</strong><br />
We also just love meeting all the incredible creators within the Solana<br />
ecosystem. With that said, we are continuously working to grow and<br />
expand to ensure more people know about our project and what we<br />
bring to the table.<br />
16<br />
<strong>SHILL</strong> <strong>Issue</strong> #<strong>20</strong>
The PotHeads community has been growing organically. How has<br />
the community inspired you to keep building amidst the deluge of<br />
NFT projects currently hitting the market?<br />
We consistently keep our heads down and work hard behind the<br />
scenes to create a project that delivers. So much of our ability to<br />
grow and move forward is because as a team, we not only love the<br />
project we’re working on, but we love this space. I believe folks in this<br />
space are turned in enough to see when creators really care about<br />
and value the project and community.<br />
I also feel a huge part of growth is just being plugged in and not<br />
constantly shilling. I am active in a few discords and work to add to<br />
the space in addition to sharing the project. Learning from others<br />
and seeing what I can accomplish is a huge motivating factor to<br />
keep moving forward.<br />
The characters for Potheads allow for future expansion. Can you let<br />
us in on where the roadmap may be heading?<br />
Yes it does! So much of the lore behind Pot Heads surrounds<br />
the sudden closing of the beloved 4-Twenty Convenience store,<br />
frequented daily by Pot Heads. We have a Gen2 collection already<br />
lined up and in the works that further explores the entity or entities<br />
behind the closure. It’s pretty hilarious and we’re so excited about it!<br />
With this Gen2 collection, we’re also going to explore having its own<br />
specific utility. Will it be a coin? Staking? Something else? Keep an<br />
eye out! We’re also exploring integrations with Metaverse projects<br />
on Solana! We have a team that will work our booties off to ensure<br />
the community feels they are a part of a project with real long-term<br />
value. We also are a team that listens and adapts, so we will make<br />
sure to listen to the community and let their voices be heard.<br />
Prospects of collaborating with other like-minded projects.<br />
We’ve done a few collaborations and have some more lined up with<br />
projects we love. With that said, we 100% would LOVE to collab with<br />
like-minded projects including Stoned Ape Crew and Sol Flowers. We<br />
believe every Stoned Ape should have its own Pot Head plant.<br />
<strong>SHILL</strong> <strong>Issue</strong> #<strong>20</strong> 19
Is there something I may have missed that you would like to add?<br />
I think the biggest thought and lesson I’ve learned is in regard to<br />
balance. I’ve spent countless hours on Twitter and in Discord<br />
learning, collaborating, and connecting. At times, however, I feel the<br />
best way to continue to bring your best self to the space is to take<br />
some time to just breath. Go for a walk, workout, meditate, etc. We<br />
are so early, and this space is moving a mile a minute - it’s easy to<br />
lose yourself and I’m a huge fan of making sure you’re doing what<br />
you need to do to be your best self to the table.<br />
We’re so thankful for the opportunity to be featured in <strong>SHILL</strong>! Our<br />
DMs are always open and feel free to stop by the discord to say hi!<br />

SHIPMAS Season App<br />
Countdown to 9 New Star<br />
New gravity-defying spaceship drops coming up in December <strong>20</strong>21<br />
will accompany the upcoming SCORE feature release, enabling<br />
players to earn ATLAS during their ship missions.<br />
Pearce C11 Commander Ship Interior /// Player-owned In-game Asset /// Immersive 3D NFT Experience<br />
On Tuesday, December 14, <strong>20</strong>21, starting at 10 AM PST and<br />
continuing on the hour, five new spectacular Star Atlas ships will<br />
become available on the Galactic Marketplace as part of a WAVE 5<br />

<strong>SHILL</strong> <strong>Issue</strong> #<strong>20</strong>
oaches<br />
Atlas Spaceships<br />
of the Galactic Asset Offering. From December <strong>20</strong> and 23, WAVE 6<br />
will bring four more ships to Play.StarAtlas.com.<br />
The spaceships on offer are one of the key assets in the Star<br />
Atlas vision of decentralized, fully self-sovereign gaming model<br />
with player-owned ownership of assets,<br />
powered by blockchain technology and<br />
non-centralized NFT marketplaces, a stark<br />
contrast from many game developers who<br />
opt to monopolize asset ownership and<br />
distribution through imposing arbitrary<br />
restrictions on free movement of assets<br />
and accounts.<br />
As with the previous ship drops, all ships<br />
payments are possible with the Star Atlas<br />
in-game currency, ATLAS. The availability<br />
of each new ship’s supply is in a 50-50<br />
ratio of ATLAS and UDSC, half of the total<br />
quantity being set for purchase exclusively<br />
with ATLAS and the other half with USDC.<br />
After the drop, the ships will continue to<br />
trade in both markets simultaneously.<br />
These spaceships also include pre-<br />
Showroom photo galleries and in-game<br />
specs, including Crew roles, Component<br />
slots, and Module slots, which are viewable<br />
on individual asset pages on Galactic<br />
Marketplace.<br />
The nine new spaceships are Pearce C11,<br />
Rainbow Chi, Ogrika Jod Asteris, Calico<br />
Evac and Tufa Feist in WAVE 5, and Fimbul<br />
BYOS Earp, Pearce X6, Fimbul ECOS<br />
Bombarella and Fimbul ECOS Treearow in<br />
WAVE 6.<br />
Each ship’s information page features its own countdown to sale<br />
starting time on the Galactic Marketplace.<br />
<strong>SHILL</strong> <strong>Issue</strong> #<strong>20</strong> 31
Pearce C11 Spaceship During an Orbital Cruise /// Player-owned In-game Asset /// Immersive 3D NFT Experience<br />
The first drop is Pearce C11, a legendary first-class fighting vessel,<br />
with an end-to-end length of nearly 800 meters (2600 feet) that<br />
can pack a fleet of its own — a true game-changer in any peace<br />
enforcement battle.<br />
Ship spec: Fighter /// Rarity: Legendary /// Class: Commander ///<br />
Available supply: 130 /// Price: 75 at 80,100 USDC and 55 at 99,900<br />
USDC<br />
The Pearce C11 is the most significant fleet carrier vessel to come<br />
from the MUD Territory. The C11’s hull is riddled with hangar bays<br />
and studded with turret weapon arrays providing a platform to<br />
house and protect an entire fleet of ships all the way up to capital<br />
sized docking mechanics. Attempting to approach this ship with<br />
hostility is a well-documented fatal error and that fact is common<br />
knowledge for any Jorvik roving band of pirates. Often doubling<br />
as organization headquarters, the C11 provides every imaginable<br />
onboard accommodation to equip and sustain an entire fleet of<br />
ships and a broad roster of crew members.<br />
The second drop is Rainbow Chi, an epic wonder of cosmic<br />
engineering that has its design speak for itself. With an end-to-end<br />
length of 35 meters (115 feet), landing it in your backyard won’t go<br />
unnoticed by anyone in the neighborhood.<br />
32<br />
<strong>SHILL</strong> <strong>Issue</strong> #<strong>20</strong>
Ship spec: Fighter /// Rarity: Epic /// Class: Small /// Available supply:<br />
8000 /// Price: 995 USDC<br />
The enigmatic Rainbow Chi is a slippery fighter ship with integrated<br />
photoli derived shape-shifting technology. This revolutionary<br />
tech allows for the repurposing of charged mass into an array of<br />
functional optimizations. Hierarchical morphing hull systems create<br />
a platform that can fully power weapon groupings or instantly shift<br />
charges to amplify distributed hullshock dispersal. This flexible<br />
vehicle architecture boasts near perfect, constant equilibrium while<br />
fiercely turning the tides in any spaceborne threat.<br />
Rainbow Chi Spaceship /// Player-owned In-game Asset /// Immersive 3D NFT Experience3D NFT Experience<br />
The third drop is Ogrika Jod Asteris, a luxurious legendary ship for<br />
experiencing the best of what the cosmos has to offer. With an endto-end<br />
length of nearly 510 meters (1700 feet), it has plenty of room<br />
for the grandest of ideas.<br />
Ship spec: Transport /// Rarity: Legendary /// Class: Capital ///<br />
Available supply: 195 /// Price: 60 at 25,000 USDC, 85 at 31,385<br />
USDC and 50 at 33,565 USDC<br />
The Ogrika Jod Asteris is a capital class transport vessel representing<br />
the ultimate in punaab ultra-luxury accommodations. With an<br />
<strong>SHILL</strong> <strong>Issue</strong> #<strong>20</strong> 33
onboard capital sized theatre for live events, multiple cafes, lounge<br />
areas and a generous sized observatory deck, this cruise ship is the<br />
finest way to tour the stars. Experience astronomical<br />
Ogrika Jod Asteris Spaceship Fleet /// Player-owned In-game Asset /// Immersive 3D NFT Experience<br />
opulence only attainable through the inimitable signature of the<br />
viciously wealthy punaab ship manufacturers.<br />
The fourth ship to drop is Calico Evac, a must-have for when your<br />
active engagement in deep space doesn’t go according to plan.<br />
Ship spec: Rescue /// Rarity: Uncommon /// Class: Medium ///<br />
Available supply: 195 /// Price: 800 at 2,<strong>20</strong>0 USDC and 1100 at 2,640<br />
USDC<br />
The Calico Evac is a nimble but robust rescue and recovery vessel.<br />
These vessels could be found in any well-equipped active combat<br />
scenes. With the ability to launch and retrieve multiple rescue<br />
drones, the Evac quite literally is the difference between life and<br />
death. Higher tiered medical bay facilities and personnel can revive<br />
stunned and critical casualties or to pull cryostatic escape pod crew<br />
out from indefinite slumber. The custom hull-piercing cockpit screen<br />
34<br />
<strong>SHILL</strong> <strong>Issue</strong> #<strong>20</strong>
makes visibility a vital component in the success of dangerously tight<br />
rescue missions. The Evac is a testament to the brilliant designs and<br />
industrial mechanical genius behind the teams at Calico.<br />
Calico Evac Spaceship in a Battlezone /// Player-owned In-game Asset /// Immersive 3D NFT Experience<br />
Ship spec: Fighter /// Rarity: Epic /// Class: Small /// Available supply:<br />
7,000 /// Price: 795 USDC<br />
The metagenic stone beings comprise the Tufa faction and when<br />
one of them take the shape of this small fighter ship, they identify<br />
as a Feist. No longer can one feel safe casually navigating an<br />
asteroid field because lurking in plain sight is a potential ambush<br />
vehicle collecting its raw power for a brutal sneak attack. Living,<br />
sentient rock formations combine discarded mining tech into a<br />
powerful, blitz-styled combat platform with local stone material<br />
shifting camouflage abilities. Despite the exotic blend of industrial<br />
technologies with breathing non-organics, the Tufa Feist is a<br />
surprisingly comfortable vessel to take on many challenges in a<br />
variety of deep space adventures.<br />
