from<br />

the<br />

Let's take a moment to reflect that this is issue #<strong>70</strong> of #<strong>SHILL</strong> zine. Over 10 months old and quickly<br />

approaching 1 year publishing content about the Solana ecosystem to the Solana ecosystem with the<br />

sole intention of highlighting NFT content that is available to the wider community.<br />

<strong>70</strong> issues- averaging 100 pages = <strong>70</strong>00 pages of content.<br />

ALL Solana.<br />

ALL NFT.<br />

ALL Alpha.<br />

ALL FREE.<br />

Every issue ever created is available on the Yumpu platform. A fantastic little snapshot of the ecosystem<br />

and what has been happening every week.<br />

#<strong>SHILL</strong> zine has covered artists when they started out, their artwork selling on Holaplex at prices<br />

you would not believe. These same artists now fetch over 10Sol per piece and are sought after. @<br />

Glitchstroke was there in issue #1, as was @titanxbt with Wise Words. @Solanauts with their 500 piece<br />

mint was there too, they are still working away with a strong community and active Discord. And, of<br />

course, a piece by @sainteclectic.<br />

The magazine serves as evidence of all the hype around projects that promise the world and then<br />

disappear as they realise that the workload is too great. Without a community behind your project<br />

there is little hope for your roadmap. This holds true to the 10,000 pfp projects as it does equally to the<br />

individual artist.<br />

When you create a piece that garners interest, people buy into your work, you have to have some sort<br />

of roadmap planned out that shows you are up to the challenge of continuing in this space. Otherwise,<br />

you are just another cash grab. Another 'promise the world' project. They exist. They have been<br />

featured in #<strong>SHILL</strong> zine and they are nowhere to be found. <strong>Issue</strong> 12 (@Apesy), <strong>Issue</strong> 28 (@orasicrtv).<br />

Others have been featured on the cover a number of times. These are the long-term artists that<br />

appreciate the Solana ecosystem, the community they have built, the followers that keep supporting<br />

them. @Culturehacker , @dat_a_bstract , @glitchstroke , @LowbrowNative.<br />

Now it's up to you 'community'. Spread the word about #<strong>SHILL</strong> zine. The further it spreads, the more<br />

eyes it gains. Every week there are a couple of tweets from tweeps that have just come across the<br />

magazine. Their reaction is always the same, "Wow! How come I am only finding out about this now?"<br />

The #<strong>SHILL</strong> zine vault has moved to a new 'ART' wallet that does not interact with anything. As we grow<br />

confident over the coming weeks we might start buying pieces again. For the meantime, #<strong>SHILL</strong> is still<br />

trying to recover from the wallet drain. We will get there in the end.<br />

Enough said. You know the drill.<br />

Magic Eden release statement on Degen Town situation<br />

Magic Eden has released a statement about the situation<br />

surrounding Degen Town and the steps they intend<br />

to take moving forward.<br />

Degen Town is an NFT project that launched over a<br />

month ago. They were advertised as a “no roadmap,<br />

no discord” project, where no concrete promises would<br />

be made to holders of the project.<br />

Despite that, the project was green-lit to launch via<br />

Magic Eden, an NFT marketplace and launchpad.<br />

Many assumed that Magic Eden had information<br />

about what the project was actually doing behind the<br />

scenes, especially with how they were marketing it.<br />

Yet within a month, the people behind the project had<br />

all left, taking with them the millions that they made.<br />

It has been a stain on Magic Eden’s reputation, and<br />

the heat has been piling back onto them again recently.<br />

Today, an official statement was finally released by the<br />

team at Magic Eden.<br />

Magic Eden Response to Degen Town<br />

On strengthening Launchpad, serving the ecosystem,<br />

and starting a dialogue We hear the community loud<br />

and clear about…<br />

Some of the key points in the response was that they<br />

had retrieved some of the funds that the team had<br />

taken for working on the project, specifically the Sol<br />

that 0xLerk had earned.<br />

Magic Eden has apologized for the marketing tactics<br />

deployed for Degen Town but maintains that their users<br />

have to DYOR as the responsibility will always lie<br />

with them, and not Magic Eden.<br />

They are also working hard to refund those who were<br />

hurt by the phishing links involved with the Degen<br />

Town project, using the funds that they retrieved from<br />

the ex-team. Royalties made by Magic Eden will instead<br />

be put into a scholarship program to “champion<br />

artists and founders on the launchpad”.<br />

The community at large is pleased to hear that actions<br />

were being taken behind the scenes and is hopeful<br />

that Magic Eden will learn from this experience while<br />

going on an internet man-hunt for NFTRamo, the believed<br />

founder of the whole Degen Town project.<br />

Solana NFTs<br />

The Gothic Degen x Taiyo Robotics has been dropped<br />

to TYR and Gothic Degen holders today!<br />

Gothic Degen had been teasing this collaboration to<br />

be part of their “season 1” plans and have finally delivered.<br />

The style of art is similar to the past collaborations<br />

they have done and many are huge fans of it.<br />

Gothic Degen was a cheap mint launched via<br />

LaunchMyNFT and went on a tear, going from a 0.069<br />

Sol mint to being over 16 Sol at one point. The collection<br />

has cooled down since then, hovering around<br />

the 5 Sol mark at this point in time. They have been<br />

consistently dropping art collaborations with various<br />

renowned names in the space, being praised by various<br />

leaders in the space.<br />

The Gothic Taiyos has not done as well as the other<br />

Gothic drops, many believing that the Taiyo community<br />

is notorious for dumping any airdrops they get.<br />

Phantom introduces native NFT burning across all<br />

devices<br />

In a move to help make it easier to get rid of “spam<br />

NFTs” so fewer people get hurt by scams, Phantom<br />

has introduced a feature to allow those using their<br />

wallets to burn these spam NFTs directly on their wallets,<br />

across all devices.<br />

Phantom, a Solana-based wallet provider, tweeted the<br />

announcement earlier today, though implementation<br />

was already available the day before. Users can simply<br />

click 2 buttons to burn NFTs they don’t want in their<br />

wallets, even receiving some Sol in return. This Sol<br />

8<br />

<strong>SHILL</strong> <strong>Issue</strong> #<strong>70</strong>


comes from “rent” that the Solana team deposits to<br />

store the NFTs for a certain period.<br />

In the past, users would have to go through other applications<br />

like SolIncinerator to get rid of their unwanted<br />

Solana NFTs. It was an iffy process with many steps<br />

involved. With the new implementation, getting rid of<br />

unwanted NFTs, especially those sent to you with malicious<br />

intent, will become much easier and safer.<br />

With all the attention and excitement around this particular<br />

space in the NFT scene, and the many eyes<br />

on John Le due to his recent involvement with y00ts,<br />

many expect the auction to do extremely well.<br />

LC_illustrates to launch The God Odyssey today<br />

LC_illustrates is a illustrator for Seed of Cain NFT<br />

project, a comic series built on Web3 for a Web3 audience.<br />

Today, the artist has announced his genesis<br />

1/1 collection titled , starting the<br />

auction the first piece, .<br />

On top of this, Phantom will also be collaborating with<br />

Blowfishxyz to develop an advanced phishing warning<br />

system, alerting users when they click potentially malicious<br />

links.<br />

It appears Phantom is taking steps towards making<br />

the Web3 experience on Solana safer, without making<br />

it any less convenient.<br />

John Le launches auction for Le DAO seat #42, The<br />

Driver<br />

After the auction for “The Example”, or seat #41 of Le<br />

DAO concluded for 525.73 Sol last Friday, the excitement<br />

around Solana 1/1 art has approached a boiling<br />

point.<br />

The piece is currently auctioning via Form Function,<br />

already receiving 6 bids and is sitting at 3.5 Sol only 3<br />

hours into the 24-hr auction.<br />

The artist has also decided to throw in an addition<br />

PFP NFT for the winning bidder, and some consolation<br />

“banner” NFTs for those who participate.<br />

As the art market is doing really well recently, largely<br />

spearheaded by the attention Degen Poet and John<br />

Le have brought to the space, more and more talented<br />

and exciting artists have decided to try their hand<br />

at selling 1/1 art, producing incredible pieces such<br />

as the one LC has created here. In a market that is<br />

largely bearish, the positivity in this niche has been a<br />

breath of fresh air.<br />

Today, seat #42, “The Driver”, goes on auction, and<br />

many are looking to take part in the auction.<br />

Le DAO is a DAO started by John Le, an artist/illustrator<br />

who’s been huge in the 1/1 NFT space, focused on<br />

using funds raised via auctions to buy and collect art<br />

pieces across the Solana NFT space.<br />

@The_AO8<br />

Anisotropic mind Edition of 5 + 3 1/1 AP from my new series “Inside the Artist Mind”, exploring the beauty of human<br />

mind. This series is quite personal, since I underwent MRI of the CNS (you can literally have a look at my brain…). Below<br />

the link and a thread #NFTdrop #NFTs.<br />

https://formfunction.xyz/@alphaomega8/series/inside-the-artist-mind…<br />

formfunction.xyz<br />

Introduced in the 80s (hi @TheBoomerDAO), Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive technique which produces<br />

multiplanar and true 3D datasets of subjects in vivo. (in the picture the 1st MRI of a brain)


Anisotropy is a characteristic of certain material (almost all<br />

biological materials) of having different properties according<br />

to different direction of measurement/use. It seems<br />

quite complex, but in practice is indeed simple.<br />

Since MRI can “measure” the movement of water molecules,<br />

if these are not free but limited by the presence<br />

of biological barriers, through multiple acquisitions, the<br />

machine can determine the direction and magnitude of<br />

the diffusion anisotropy in a voxel (@voxelmonkey)<br />

It allows to achieve high spatial resolution (magnitude of<br />

millimeters) in the clinical setting. Notably, it differs from<br />

other techniques such as CT scans (see https://twitter.com/<br />

The_AO8/status/15262271643<strong>70</strong>280450?t=toJPllzxPVlD8Sfa4ql-7w&s=19…)<br />

by producing excellent images without<br />

harmful ionizing radiation (i.e., X-rays).<br />

Quote Tweet<br />

This allow to build anisotropy maps and diffusion-tensor<br />

images (DTI; one of next drops ). In an anisotropy map<br />

(see the details) the voxel are substituted, on a 2D plan,<br />

by ellipsoids, which allow visualization of the routes of<br />

nervous fibers in the brain.<br />

TheAO •$• {RISE} @The_AO8<br />

Computed Tomography (CT) was invented in <strong>70</strong>s by<br />

the British engineer Godfrey Hounsfield. By 1967, Dr<br />

Hounsfield had been working for music and electronics<br />

company “Electrical and Musical Industries” (EMI).<br />

DTI reconstructions may be helpful not only for research<br />

purposes, but also to plan surgical intervention, when<br />

demolitive operations are planned.<br />

In this piece, ellipsoids have been then colorized to emphasize<br />

the mood of that period.<br />

MRI has transformed the role of radiology in medicine<br />

since its initial applications and nowadays is the cornerstone<br />

of the diagnostic work-up of a number of conditions<br />

(not limited to neurological ones).

NetRunner (portfolio tracker+ future tax reporting tool<br />

+ rev share) is one of my top utility holds. It is honestly<br />

one of the few non-bluechips I will hold through this<br />

bear. The current fp is accessible and makes it easy to<br />

accumulate.<br />

been consistent.<br />

And the upside is massive.<br />

A couple areas of improvement:<br />

•more info on legalities of rev share<br />

•marketing plans*<br />

•what comes after tax season?<br />

*the project was not super hyped before mint, and marketing of the product<br />

will need to be amazing during tax season<br />

yord.wiki<br />

NFTs needed a wiki, so we built one for you, anon.<br />

Team/Devs:<br />

@Meat_netrunner has been an example of transparency<br />

for other team leads to emulate. So far, all dev<br />

releases are smooth, and all evidence points to the<br />

team being able to execute the tax reporting product<br />

to a high level.<br />

Community:<br />

this is not usually a huge focus for utility projects, since<br />

the potential of the project is more strongly tied to the<br />

product than to its community. I do feel like the longterm<br />

nature of the play attracts a more mature holder<br />

base.<br />

Innovation/Utility:<br />

I'm stacking these. If you're looking for an entry -- under<br />

1.5 is good<br />

everyone here in the NFT space has a use for this product;<br />

it's likely to be a solid business come tax season. I<br />

expect that rev share has attracted a lot of holders, and<br />

I would like more information about legal preparations<br />

of the team regarding that<br />

Art:<br />

some of the best AI art out there. Holders can download<br />

full-res images, making the details stand out even<br />

more. This is especially impressive coming from a<br />

utility-focused project.<br />

Achievements/Potential:<br />

though it's still early in the game, the beginning developments<br />

have been smooth, and the progress has

@subaruimpreza09<br />

Disclosure: I was formerly affiliated and am a current holder. Here’s my honest review.<br />

Solful is making a cross-chain networking platform (a place<br />

to post or search for jobs in Web3). It is still early in the life<br />

of the project, but it has potential, even through this bear.<br />

NFTs needed a wiki, so we built one for you, anon.<br />

Team/Devs: the team is genuine and receptive, but not<br />

always great at giving regular updates. The moderators<br />

interface with the community much more than the team,<br />

but the team is still accessible if needed.<br />

Community: this is not Solful’s strongest aspect, but to be<br />

fair, the project is more utility focused than community<br />

focused. My personal interactions have been pleasant.<br />

Innovation/Utility: Solful is a contender to produce the<br />

first successful Web3 networking platform, giving it a lot of<br />

potential. Their utility expands outside the Solana ecosystem<br />

itself, which is not common with Solana NFTs. It makes<br />

the project a bit more resilient.<br />

Art: the art is impressive and clean, especially for a utility<br />

project. It also makes a great pfp. I wish there were more<br />

traits/attributes to allow holders to shop around and identify<br />

with their NFTs.<br />

Achievements/Potential: the project has a large potential,<br />

but progress has been delayed. The team is clearly committed,<br />

but there are many factors that go into a successful<br />

business, and the project still has a lot to prove.<br />

Overall, Solful is a solid project with an accessible entry (current<br />

fp 1.4). During the brief builder meta hype, Solful found<br />

a lot of success. Buying under 1.5 is the move .

@CodyNFTs<br />

Why are the 2 biggest whales on Solana ALL IN on 1 of 1<br />

artists? Is it a place where you should start investing and<br />

can make more money than PFP collections? Let’s talk<br />

about 1 of 1 NFT art, places to buy this art like @exchgART<br />

and let’s talk about @notjohnlestudio.<br />

I’m serious when I say the 2 biggest SOL whales are all<br />

in. 2 people I really look up to and that are some of the<br />

smartest investors we have in @HGESOL and @SOLBig-<br />

Brain.<br />

Check out this tweet by HGE that shows them as the biggest<br />

whales (1 + 3) on @exchgART<br />

Here’s a tweet by BigBrain<br />

And here’s what HGE had to say<br />

Big Brain even created an entire new twitter and arm of<br />

his business dedicated to it with @BigBrainGallery<br />

These 2 also both LOVE @notjohnlestudio.


But a quick disclaimer. We can’t always follow whales Their investment strategy, risk tolerance etc often looks way different<br />

than ours, so blindly following them is bad BUT I think them making outsized bets on 1 of 1 artists is something we<br />

should all pay attention to.<br />

So who is John Le and why are we talking about him specifically? Well this thread is meant to shed some light on John Le<br />

• 1 of 1 art on ETH and why Solana is next up<br />

• @exchgART<br />

• How to find new artists to invest in<br />

• If 1 of 1 art is right for you<br />

John Le is a comic book-based artist for GIGA (Vault Comics) but that’s not why he’s been exploding onto the Solana NFT<br />

scene. It’s because he’s a 1 of 1 artist who creates masterpieces for his own liking and for projects. Check out some of<br />

the fan art he’s created.<br />

He turned that Gecko into a BADASS He also created some art for @TheChimpions which was sold for 250 sol. Gives me<br />

some DragonballZ / Frieza on Namek type vibes.<br />

1 of 1 art has done great on ETH and now it’s catching fire on Solana. You’ve probably heard of artists like @Beeple and<br />

@Fewowcious. These guys make more money than entire NFT projects from one piece of artwork. Rightfully so, their<br />

work looks a lot better than derivatives.<br />

Now 1 of 1 artists, like John Le, are moving to Solana Not only do our big Whales in BigBrain and HGE love JohnLe, but so<br />

does our most important founder @frankdegods.


it should. There are a ton of talented artists across the globe.<br />

You’ve seen some of the fan art people create. It’s marvelous.<br />

NFTs allow them to show their work to the masses.<br />

Just found a huge list of 1 of 1 artists to check out!! These<br />

might be helpful. Thanks to @ghost_fried for the curation.<br />

https://twitter.com/i/lists/1433289016439304192<br />

Frank recognized this movement to the 1 of 1 space<br />

and created a partnership with DeGods and Exchange<br />

art to Provide introductory resources to navigating the<br />

1/1 space and put a spotlight on exceptional artists.<br />

But Cody, I’m not an art curator. How am I supposed to<br />

know what to look for when buying 1 of 1 art? Unfortunately<br />

there isn’t a cookie cutter layout for 1 of 1s or<br />

everyone would be rich. Here are a few pointers I’ve<br />

learned since dabbling in 1 of 1s.<br />

• Don’t buy art just because ppl are talking<br />

about it<br />

• Support art you fall in love with<br />

• Finding artists BEFORE they break out is where<br />

you make outsized gains<br />

• Love the art you buy. If you’re buying to flip<br />

you probably won’t be successful<br />

• 1 of 1s are illiquid (remember this)<br />

Try messaging these artists to find out what makes<br />

them tick and the reason for their work. Makes you<br />

relate and understand their art more. So again who the<br />

fuck is John Le?<br />

He’s created 4 of the top 8 series of all time on @exchgART<br />

with over $1 million in sales.<br />

You see my pfp, so we gotta mention @y00tsNFT John<br />

was the Art Director for y00ts but recently stepped<br />

down due to personal reasons I was really excited to<br />

see his influence on the artwork and was very sad to<br />

see him go but I’m sure he had a good reason.<br />

We haven’t seen the volume come back on ME but<br />

there has been a soaring uptick in 1 of 1 art volume.<br />

ME does much more volume than Exchange art but<br />

over the past 30 days Magic Eden’s volume is down<br />

31.33% while Exchange art’s volume is up 612.23%. 1<br />

of 1 art is becoming more prominent in the space. As

@easymoneyding<br />

state of our solana nft market; a review of the last<br />

month<br />

price of solana: it's a somewhat similar story since<br />

mid-july. We've settled in a range between 35 and<br />

48, with fluctuations inbetween. That being said, we<br />

didn't break past 40 last month so it is nice to have<br />

a little relief bounce though sentiment out there<br />

remains unchanged.<br />

time, overall there's an average between 380K-400k<br />

a day<br />

USD daily vol:<br />

Here's a comparison between this month and last<br />

in mid june we were still seeing at least 8M USD a<br />

day, however since august we started to continue a<br />

downtrend towards 4M USD per day<br />

Let's take a look at @MagicEden statistics # of daily<br />

users.<br />

We've plateaued at an average of 30k users a day<br />

which seems to be holding rather consistently. it'd<br />

be safe to assume that these figures will remain at<br />

existing levels for the time being<br />

USD daily vol continued:<br />

Whilst we finished july with days over 5.5-6.5M USD,<br />

the last week or so we've started to see this figure<br />

drop just below 4.5M which equates to roughly a<br />

25K-40K drop off in solana being traded<br />

# of daily transactions:<br />

Transactions held steady for the month but are slighly<br />

down compared to july whilst still trending up over<br />

overall comments:<br />

We're still in a downtrend in our solana nft market.<br />

volume has dropped another level whilst overall users<br />

has plateued for the time being. for daily traders<br />

in our ecosystem this means the length of time to<br />

hold a project has shortened even further.


We have seen some life in the 1 of 1 artist space and we're likely to continue to see that grow which has<br />

been refreshing in the grand scheme of things. that being said we're still seeing blood out there<br />

Let's compare the mainstays over the last month:<br />

@DeGodsNFT dropped from 300 to 275<br />

@GenesysGo dropped from 145 to 63<br />

@okaybears dropped from 100 to 55<br />

@SolanaMBS steady from 180 to 175<br />

@DegenApeAcademy 48 to 51.5<br />

@CetsOnCreck dropped 48 to 25<br />

@TaiyoRobotics 125 to 95<br />

Still in freefall and searching for a resting floor:<br />

@BlocksmithLabs dropping from 55 to 45<br />

@catalinawhales found support at 40 and holding<br />

there<br />

@FamousFoxFed dipped from 28 to 23<br />

@TheFracture_ dropping from 16 to 11.69<br />

@atadia_io halved from 19 to 10<br />

Select few slow burn projects that started with lower<br />

floor prices have found a way to gain traction in current<br />

market state. It's currently still a gambling/1 of<br />

1/art upgrade meta with these projects sharing the<br />

large majority of the months volume.<br />

Big moments upcoming:<br />

@y00tsNFT<br />

Scholarships and mint - feels like a must hit/win that<br />

injects both sentiment and volume back into the market<br />

via trickle down economics<br />

@THELILYNFT<br />

Mint is on the horizon (still TBD) but has a lot of believers<br />

already (myself included)<br />

Notable pumps over the last months that have held<br />

for now:<br />

@VandalCityCorp moved from low 2s to sitting just<br />

under 8<br />

@InfectedMob moved from under 1 SOL to 5 now<br />

Dust Crash & Coinflip ran from under 2 and tested<br />

highs of 28 to now halving again at 14<br />

Notable dumps over the last month that were previously<br />

hot property:<br />

@Primatesnft has held around 10 though hasn't<br />

broken out since<br />

@GothicDegens were sitting pretty at 13.5 but have<br />

since dropped 65% to 4.<strong>70</strong><br />

@frootsnft hit a high of 9 and has since dropped 80%<br />

to 1.<strong>70</strong><br />

Average window of profit opportunity for hyped projects:<br />

Really hyped projects run for 4 days max and slowly<br />

wane off slightly less hyped projects run for half that<br />

time most gambling meta projects will run for a few<br />

hours and taper off towards 0.<br />

worth noting:<br />

it's important for @DeGodsNFT to hold 250 and it is<br />

nice to see OG well established @SolanaMBS &<br />

@DegenApeAcademy hold firm as well (in fact SMB<br />

are regaining traction imo)<br />

However, the majority of projects have taken another<br />

leg down over the last 4-6 weeks despite solana's<br />

price somewhat stabilising and number of users<br />

and transaction remain the same, daily volume has<br />

dipped around 50% since mid july and a lot of top<br />

marketcap projects struggle hold existing floor prices<br />

Liquidity is either tied up in the market or withheld in<br />

@phantom wallets in USDC (at least that's my assumption)<br />

There's a couple bets being set here and there in the<br />

long term but we all seem to be waiting for the next<br />

BIG moment (@y00tsNFT)<br />

I've taken a little break over the last month to recalibrate<br />

and reset. it's time to come back and pump out<br />

content for the community again and I'm excited to<br />

bring just that.<br />

There's a lot of negativity out there that needs to be<br />

doused. Look after one another, all the people still<br />

here are the believers that never left.<br />

It's a demoralising period for sure, but we'll get<br />

through this together, not by picking sides and pointing<br />

fingers.


the<br />

to<br />

The wrxiths praise Clauneck and only Clauneck.<br />

Clauneck is well loved by Lucifer, and it is summoned because<br />

it has the ability to bestow wealth, either by bringing<br />

money over a great distance or by assisting in the discovery<br />

of hidden treasure.<br />

Clauneck is the demon of wealth, known to be obedient to<br />

his summoners, but only to those who show it the proper<br />

respect.<br />

One of the wrxiths main purposes is to present offerings to<br />

Clauneck during sacrifices. These offerings will be stored in<br />

the astral bank vault until Clauneck is satisfied upon which<br />

the rewards will be granted to wrxiths for their respect and<br />

loyalty.<br />

Hire cult members to assist with project.<br />

Big marketing push. Raids, giveaways, constant engagement,<br />

paid promotions, all eyes on us.<br />

Soul Sacrifices<br />

Our sacrifices are the offerings to the overlords. We submit<br />

our offerings and in return, are granted with rewards<br />

from the astral bank vault. Our overlords will consume the<br />

souls forever declaring them obsolete and in purgatory.<br />

We will burn supply by more than 50%.<br />

Each sacrifice will consist of 666 souls.<br />

Overthrow & Rebuild<br />

With the power of cult behind us, we have overthrown the<br />

old masters and are driving at rebuilding trust and building<br />

the community together. This phase is ever evolving as we<br />

are laying the groundwork to sustainable growth.<br />

Redefine roadmap & lore.<br />

Harness the cult to ensure our discord is a valuable asset for<br />

alpha.<br />

Migrate project and secure all assets.<br />

Create consistent branding across all platforms (social and<br />

marketplace)<br />

Collaborate & network with everyone we can.<br />

Build community together. Work as a cult.<br />

Offerings will be sent directly to smart contract via web<br />

app.<br />

The web app will have a dashboard showing real time<br />

sacrifice stats.<br />

What the astral bank vault requires:<br />

1st Sacrifice: 1 Sacrificed for 1 Airdrop = 666 NFTs Rewarded.<br />

2nd Sacrifice: 2 Sacrificed for 1 Airdrop = 333 NFTs Rewarded.<br />

3rd Sacrifice: 3 Sacrificed for 1 Airdrop = 222 NFTs Rewarded.<br />

4th Sacrifice: 6 Sacrificed for 1 Airdrop = 111 NFTs Rewarded.<br />

Utility to be built into new sub-collections (TBD with WRX-<br />

ITH DAO).<br />

The NFTs rewarded will be new sub-collections based off<br />

of the traits most burned.


Leverage the Solana 1/1 community and/or collab with other collections for unique artwork.<br />

WRXITH DAO<br />

The cult provides. We aim to seek revenue generating opportunities with our capital. We work together to achieve the<br />

same goal.<br />

Seek out revenue generating NFTs and protocols within the crypto space for investment.<br />

Yield generated may be used to sweep floors of WRXITHS and other projects.<br />

Create roles and staff users within Discord for WL hunters to find valuable whitelists for our DAO members.<br />

WRXITH DAO members may benefit from surprise airdrops, giveaways, etc. Snapshots will be taken randomly to qualify<br />

for these benefits.<br />

Host and contribute prizes to open source/for profit project hackathons.<br />

Sponsor cult members projects with builder resources/seed capital.<br />

Staking and Utility<br />

We are DeFi degens. This will be an ever-evolving section. We strive to provide maximum value to our holders through<br />

utility in both our NFT collections and utility token.<br />

Provide staking to lock supply and for holders to accrue value.<br />

Create deflationary WRXITHS $HELL token. (Tokenomics TBD)<br />

Direct portion of royalties from NFT collections to burn $HELL.<br />

Use $HELL for raffles, merchandise, etc.<br />

Quality of Life Bots & Tools<br />

We’re always building, and we will share our tooling with the WRXITH DAO & Solana community.<br />

Create and leverage partnerships and integrations with other projects to benefit the Solana ecosystem.<br />

Build a plethora of tools for discord. Wallet watchers, alpha leaks, real time volume alerts, LMNFT candy machine scraper.<br />

Build a plethora of tools on wrxiths.com gated by WRXITH NFT. Ecosystem analytics, volume tracking, etc.

Background story about number 28: The Sins.<br />

Before I make ‘The Sins’ I read fiction book call ‘Merasa Pintar, Bodoh Saja Tak Punya’ written by Rusdi Mathari.<br />

This book makes my brain full of confusion.


The book tells the story of a person named Cak Dlahom who is considered crazy by most people because of his<br />

eccentric thoughts. But what Cak Dlahom said if you think about it is a truth from another point of view.<br />

After exploring Cak Dlahom’s thoughts, I realized that humans are too ambitious to pursue something that makes<br />

them unwilling to admit something that is actually wrong even if it is just a small thing.<br />

So is sin. Sometimes we find it difficult to admit it even though there is something stuck in the heart. But if we<br />

want to admit it our life might be easier.<br />

Sin cannot be seen but it will always be written somewhere we cannot reach. then one day the note will be read<br />

back in front of us.<br />

And here comes ‘The Sins’. A collage that I made to illustrate what I’m telling. Our sins are recorded and still<br />

stored neatly before being read to us.<br />

And today ‘The Sins’ will on auction at 9 pm WIB. Check the detail here:<br />

@SOLMills_<br />

@notjohnlestudio (who I, like many others, find very talented) is selling physical prints of a 1/1 NFT<br />

he sold in the primary market some months ago and which later re-sold in secondary for 500 SOL (or<br />

$45,000 USD).<br />

What are the legal and ethical considerations here?<br />

When selling this unique piece, John Le retained the rights and IP to the image itself. No IP was assigned<br />

to the buyer, so John has the legal right to make copies in other formats.<br />

John Le would NOT have the right to make more NFTs of this exact image, but I suspect it would come<br />

down to a legal definition of “unique”, whether there was false advertising in the original sale and whether<br />

purchasers had suffered losses as a result of this false advertising.<br />

In the traditional art world, it is generally common for a buyer to know how many editions of a work<br />

(i.e., photos, drawing prints) are being sold. For example, I have bought from a gallery a photo that was<br />

offered in three different sizes in editions of 8 each.<br />

That means 24 editions were issued and I knew, at the time of purchase, I would own 1 of them. My<br />

expectation was that no more than 24 pieces would ever exist, and I could pay the price KNOWING that<br />

information. But what if the artist later wants to issue editions in another size?


Just like our blockchain example with John, the artist retains the image IP and the artist could decide<br />

to issue another 8 photos in a different size. What *usually* stops this from occurring is that the artist or<br />

gallery involved realises this is just BAD BUSINESS.<br />

If more editions are released, the existing editions are devalued for existing clients, clients are lost, and<br />

future sales of other LE collections suffer because the word of the seller has no value. Ultimately, we are<br />

dealing with more of a SOCIAL contract than a LEGAL contract.<br />

Like with any generalisation, there are exceptions. Selling postcards of the Mona Lisa does not devalue<br />

the Mona Lisa. Some would say that it puts the value HIGHER because it is free advertising. (However,<br />

the postcards and painting are also very clearly different products).<br />

In this case with John’s work “Chosen”, it will be up to the free market to decide whether John’s behaviour<br />

is unethical. Are prints a good thing or a bad thing for the owner of the unique work? No obvious<br />

answer to that question. What do you think?
