<strong>Issue</strong> <strong>40</strong>!<br />
20 weeks of Solana ecosystem news, nft’s and alpha bundled up in<br />
an online publication. Let’s hear a ‘woot!’ for #Shill.<br />
Putting together a zine twice a week is a daunting task yet, the<br />
content is always there. If there aren’t tweets to quote, then the zine<br />
is easily filled with NFT art that keeps pumping every day. Loads of<br />
new artists entering the space weekly.<br />
The more you dig, the bigger the surprise! @ctrlkaitlyn is my latest<br />
surprise. Hailing from QLD Australia, a blender artist that is only listing<br />
art that passes her satisfaction test. @singpentinkhepi is another,<br />
so good that @eternalsnft pointed out that people were copyminting<br />
them from Opensea onto Holaplex. Glad to see @singpentinkhepi<br />
porting their wares over to Solana.<br />
This issue I have done something a little different. This is the first<br />
time an artist has featured on the cover and the contents page. And<br />
deservedly so. Love your work @culturehacker! (disclaimer: I have<br />
never succesfully bought a CultureHacker piece) Same goes for<br />
@ itsMcNatt. I do, however, own an early piece from @glitchstroke<br />
who just keeps going from strength to strength developing his own<br />
unique style. You see ‘that’ NFT and you instantly know, “That’s a<br />
Glitchstroke piece.” PLUS, you//know//it’s//him//from//his//tweets.<br />
Over the last couple of issues, I have placed GYRIS in #Shill. If this<br />
wasn’t a heads-up-alpha-tip then I don’t know how else to point it out.<br />
The team is solid. Fully doxxed. Regular ‘spaces’, Discord AMA’s etc.<br />
Have an achievable roadmap (get to know the team to understand<br />
why) and have a product that is about to set NEW standards in the<br />
space. What’s your gameplan for this one?<br />
Enough said. You know the drill. Let’s f go!<br />

GYRIS<br />
rdy #anon?<br />
The Gyris Metaverse is an open world built on Solana. Our Genesis<br />
holders are our Pioneers, builders in a wild frontier.<br />
The Gyris Metaverse will result through the interaction of story<br />
and community. In the beginning of all great civilisations, the<br />
people did not own the land, they discovered it. All Gyris holders<br />
will have the opportunity to stake claim and settle in Gyris.<br />
There will be no initial land sale for Genesis holders as you are<br />
our frontier settlers. The Gyris Game will drop those willing,<br />
into our vast world.<br />
Supply: 2735<br />
Mint Price: TBA<br />

Description of Project<br />
Gyris will be more than a beautifully crafted NFT project. Our<br />
vision is to become the world’s first web3 metaverse film and<br />
gaming franchise.<br />
Studio Gyris<br />
The studio responsible for establishing the franchise and home<br />
to the Gyris Gaming Division and Creative Team. The studio has<br />
written the story of Gyris and will develop metaverse gaming<br />
and film assets using Unreal Engine 5. UE5 makes this possible,<br />
as the majority of assets developed are usable across both<br />
film and gaming. Think of us as the Marvel Studios of web3.<br />

The LOST ISLE<br />
By Treasure Island (prev. Chest)<br />
The Mysterious Lost Isle<br />
As our travels go on, we’ll continue to reveal more & more details<br />
about our final destination and its hidden secrets. In the meantime,<br />
let one of our Captains fill you in on our voyage thus far.<br />
During the past few days, our deck has experienced an enormous<br />
growth in numbers and activity. As our crew grew, we’ve noticed a<br />
tremendous amount of help & value provided by the community to<br />
others as more and more of our members find their callings on board<br />
and help others adjust and integrate. Since the beginning, we’ve tried<br />
to create a tight knit crew of pirates from different backgrounds<br />
and with different strengths that could bond and enjoy each other’s<br />
company as we all plunge into this exciting adventure!<br />
Animation<br />
Last week, some of you may have heard rumours of an upcoming Gen<br />
0 NFT upgrade allowing Pirates to move, shoot from their flintlocks,<br />
smoke their pipes & much more! Indeed, starting tomorrow, every 2<br />
34<br />
<strong>SHILL</strong> <strong>Issue</strong> #<strong>40</strong>
days, 1000 randomly picked NFTs will be upgraded to their animated<br />
version. Every selection will be made among the pool of unlisted<br />
NFTs on the Marketplaces. The snapshot for each update will be<br />
taken at a random time during each two-day period!<br />
Also, each week, we’ll be holding a giveaway inside our Discord for a<br />
custom 1/1 NFT Animation with a custom name for all Gen 0 Pirate<br />
Holders<br />
The Lost Isle (Storyline)<br />
While scouring the sea in the<br />
search for the Treasure Islands,<br />
one of the crewmates on the<br />
ship noticed an exotic Island<br />
with a shining blue light coming<br />
out of its deep jungle. To avoid<br />
unnecessary risks and explore<br />
the mysterious isle, one of our<br />
Captains, Sammy Tide, sent a<br />
small crew to investigate and<br />
map out the island.<br />
While awaiting their return, a<br />
turbulent storm engulfed the<br />
Sea. Violent rain and waves<br />
quickly filled up the waters<br />
damaging the ships and throwing a dozen pirates overboard. To save<br />
the crew and the numerous chests filled with gold aboard the ships,<br />
the Pirate fleet had no choice but to dock on the stray island. On the<br />
next morning, the crew realized that significant repairs needed to be<br />
made before it was possible to resume the search for the famous<br />
Islands. However, it also became clear that their current place of stay<br />
wasn’t safe as the scouting party disappeared without a trace. For<br />
the time being while the Isle is being explored and to accommodate<br />
their stay, a camp has been built with a Market, Bar, a lending shop<br />
as well as multiple smaller shacks to respond to each pirate’s needs.<br />
Pre IDO staking — On the Island each Pirate can go on quests to find<br />
resources, items & gold. Each NFT owner is allowed to choose the<br />
line-up for each quest by choosing the specific pirates they want to<br />
send as well as their amount. (Sending out multiple Pirates on one<br />
quest decreases the awarded amount while increasing the chances<br />
of finding the searched items; finding items is not guaranteed,<br />
allowing for different staking strategies)<br />
<strong>SHILL</strong> <strong>Issue</strong> #<strong>40</strong> 35
Alpha Game release — While it’s not a full release of the game and<br />
its utilities, it gives a chance for holders to get a small glimpse of the<br />
game’s mechanics and its spirit before anyone else. It also allows<br />
existing $Chest users and Pirates to experience firsthand multiple<br />
financial tools in a gamified and easy to use environment<br />
Borrowing & Lending Borrow & lend assets governed by $Chest<br />
holders, allowing b&l for both in-game assets and Solana assets<br />
In-game Mechanics — Experience the basic mechanics of the game,<br />
moving, shooting, character interactions & more in this Holder-only<br />
alpha. Earn items, trade, and Stake in a unique and gamified fashion.<br />
Community & Integrations<br />
Throughout these past few days, we’ve been working hard to give<br />
more autonomy to the community to allow everyone to participate<br />
and give value to the group. This is a big step for us as we move<br />
forward in the direction of community ownership and increased DAO<br />
participation in the project. Moreover, we’ve been further growing<br />
our community and utility by partnering up with different projects<br />
and protocols in the Solana ecosystem. All Pirates are now free to<br />
borrow against their NFT to receive an instant loan for up to 1 week<br />
by pawning their NFT with Pawn Shop Gnomies. Honey Finance will<br />
also become available starting next week. We’re already working on<br />
a few other integrations and partnerships, more details soon ;)<br />
1/1 NFT Auction<br />
Finally, to further increase community involvement we’ll be soon<br />
hosting the first 1/1 Defi Pirate related NFT, proceeds from which<br />
will be used as a Prize pot for community events.<br />
