The Lunar New Year is approaching, and the Abstract mainnet is about to be launched. Magic Eden’s official Twitter account posted a tweet early this morning, indicating that the Abstract mainnet will be launched tomorrow:
At this point in time, it feels like the entire NFT market is bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new. After being acquired by Igloo, the parent company of Pudgy Penguins, and the great success of Pudgy Penguins token $PENGU, NFT players and even the entire market are full of expectations for the new chain Abstract.
How to participate in the Abstract ecosystem?
Airdrop acquisition method preview
Previously, Abstract had announced their incentive system, Abstract Incentives.
This incentive system will incentivize three different groups of people:
- Developers: Build and deploy apps on Abstract, and receive corresponding XP rewards every month based on user usage. For developers with outstanding performance, there will be an award event every month, and additional corresponding XP will be given.
- User: Use the App on Abstract and get XP rewards every week.
- Content creators: Live stream on Abstract to earn XP rewards. (Abstract has opened up the application for streamer qualifications, here’s the link )
In general, we need to continuously and deeply participate in various projects on the Abstract chain to maximize the benefits of airdrops. They have also designed a badge system, including Weekly Badge, Raid Event Badge and Mysterious Badge. From the names, it is obvious that a series of activities will be carried out to guide users to use a series of apps on Abstract.
Compared with Blast, the more prominent point is that Abstract will have its own live broadcast platform, Abstract Live. The resources required for a live broadcast platform are very high. It is possible that in the early stage, we will only see selected big Vs entering the platform for live broadcasting, rather than a fully open platform (of course, full openness will definitely be chaotic, and there will definitely be people who live broadcast 24 hours a day eating and sleeping to get airdrops...). The less clear point is whether XP can be transferred? The Gold points on Blats can be issued by the project party to users as incentives, so there will be competition between projects. It is not yet clear whether Abstract will learn from this.
Projects worth participating in
Abstract officially released an ecological project map:
Based on the above classification, I have selected the projects that I personally think are worthy of attention.
NFT Projects
First of all, the NFT projects on Abstract have basically completed a large part of the launch process before the official launch through pre-sales and white ticket distribution, so it is relatively late to participate now. Here, I list the projects that I personally think are the most popular, which can help you better track the dynamics of the secondary market after the mainnet is launched.
Canna Sapiens ( @CannaSapiensNFT ) - Total quantity 4,000, price to be determined, IP narrative, with plans to issue tokens.
Ruyui ( @RuyuiStudios ) - Total quantity 7777, price 0.07 ETH, IP + game narrative, with coin issuance plan.
Kabu ( @kabuxyz ) - Total quantity: 7,000, IP narrative, 1,000 pre-sales have been completed at a unit price of 0.038 ETH.
Final Bosu ( @finalbosuX ) - The second series on Abstract, the total quantity and price are to be determined, anime IP narrative. The current floor price of the old series is 1.95 ETH. Holding the old series can get 1 Free Mint and 1 guaranteed white. You can still participate in the official websites white single event ( portal )
Abstract Hotdog ( @AbstractHotDogs ) - Total 3333, priced at 0.035 ETH, 1500 have been sold through pre-sale at 0.025 ETH. There is a coin issuance. In addition, they have also reached a cooperation with the Brave browser.
Pengztracted ( @pengztracted ) - Total 7777, Free Mint. Penguin theme, currently appears to be a pure art project.
Game Project
Since the Abstract airdrop requires deep participation in ecological projects, game projects are very worthy of attention. It is possible that there will be a great project that allows you to enjoy the fun of the game and kill two birds with one stone (game income + Abstract airdrop income).
Vibes (Pudgy TCG @ocapgames ) + Pudgy World ( @PudgyWorld_ ) - Vibes (Pudgy TCG) is a card game based on the Pudgy IP, and Pudgy World is basically a fat penguin QQ pet. There is not much to say about the gameplay, but it must be included because it is our own product.
Onchain Heroes ( @onchainheroes ) - An on-chain game created by @skarlywarly, the former dev lead of Wolf Game. This on-chain game is neither a hardcore autonomous world that has not yet shown strong playability, nor a chain game with excellent content on PC or mobile. It is the intersection of the two like Wolf Game. This will be an idle game that is easy to start but difficult to master. It may only take 15-20 minutes a day to actually operate the game, but after the game, you need to spend a lot of time thinking about your own strategy. Players are encouraged to communicate and make different decisions based on their different risk preferences in a fair competition environment and in the face of incomplete information.
The game character NFTs of this series will be minted after the Abstract mainnet is launched. Currently, holding Onchain Heroes Genesis Ring NFT can get 1 Free Mint + 2 Guarantee White. The current floor price of this NFT is 3 ETH.
Gigaverse ( @playgigaverse ) - Like Onchain Heroes above, this is also an on-chain game, RPG type, led by Pirate Nation team member @0x Dith (mentioned Pirate Nation, a full-chain game that received $33 million in financing led by a16z in the bear market. Gigaverse will also use the underlying infrastructure of Proof of Play of the studio behind Pirate Nation).
At present, almost all the white tickets for game character NFTs have been issued and are waiting to be minted.
DUPER ( @playduper ) - Received $8.7 million in funding from Bain Capital Crypto, Coinbase, and Niantic, originally built on Arbitrum. This game is generally a social strategy game, because the conditions for achieving victory in the game are to occupy 11 map grids or a straight flush, and the occupation of the map is related to the hand cards. Players can exchange the required hand cards in the game, and the final victory is not necessarily the player who gets the most benefits (the distribution of benefits depends on who collects the most gems).
There is a Free Mint series Genesis Ace of Spade with a total supply of 999 to be released soon, with token distribution and in-game benefits.
Monsters.fun( @monstersdotfun ) - An AI arena on Abstract. Use the prompt you input to generate an Agent. When generating an Agent, a joint curve token is also generated. The winner will increase and the loser will decrease.
Currently, you can obtain priority access ( portal ) by registering on the official website and then pulling in points from others.
77-bit ( @the 77 bit ) - A cyberpunk MMORPG developed by Analog Games. There are now official website events to get rewards. ( Portal ) This project is an old project. The NFT series was issued in 2022. The current floor price is 0.32 ETH.
Social Projects
Boost.gg ( @boostdotgg ) - This is from AlphaBot, a familiar NFT lottery tool. You can register on the official website to get early access ( portal ). They will issue tokens, and you can get them now, but you can get them on AlphaBot (basically, you can get them by lottery or airdrop). This thing is essentially the same as AlphaBot, and both are platforms for customers who need to increase user growth. If AlphaBot is only in the small NFT track, Boost.gg is to bring together the three parties of demand, creators, and users through token incentives.
UGC.fun (Create Layer @createlayer ) - Project owners can deposit their own tokens into the reward pool, and content creators can help write relevant tweets and get rewards. This project mentioned that actions on it will earn XP on their platform, so they should issue tokens. You can currently register on the official website to enter the Waitlist ( portal ).
noodles.fun ( @noodlesdotfun ) - Based on the official description, I think this is more like Friend Tech on Abstract (or the recently popular Clout and Tribe), which allows fans to buy their own tokens and interact with their own fan base based on them.
Prediction market/gambling trading projects
Myriad ( @MyriadMarkets ) - A prediction market project under DASTAN, it is a company with Rug Radio, Decrypt, etc., so previous holders of Rug Radio NFT will receive airdrops of its token $MYR in the future.
Multiplier ( @multiplierfun ) - This is quite interesting, a market green candle maker. You can choose your favorite small-cap meme coin, then select a multiple and bet your ETH. If the multiple given by the system is less than the multiple you selected, then the project party will take your ETH and give you the projects own tokens. Otherwise, the system will use the treasury to buy the corresponding meme coin and return (the amount you bet * the multiple) an equal amount of meme coins.
If there are many people playing, there may be many coins with a positive line for no apparent reason in the market. Then, as the winner, you can choose to pour or diamond hands in the chaos.
Gacha (formerly Swipe @gacha_game_ ) - On-chain scratch cards, if the price is right, it can replace Web2 scratch cards in the future. After all, you can also get airdrops here...
Launchpad
Buzz.fun ( @buzzdotfun ) - pump.fun on Abstract, will have its own token $BUZZ.
AI Projects
Neura ( @NeuraADND ) - Neura is not a regular AI image generation platform. In fact, Adanede, the team behind Neura, intends to build Neura into a decentralized, self-aware AI artist through self-financing. Neura will create art independently, but users can use Android NFTs to influence Neuras creations. Different Android NFTs will give Neura different creative styles, and each user will be a unique node of Neura. At present, Neura has created the first series The Memories and completed the Free Mint, and the current floor price is 0.2 ETH.
memecoin
$PENGU - Although it seems a bit like adding this in for nothing, I have to put it in... It is very likely that $PENGU will support bridging to Abstract in the future, and it deserves to be the first.
$GRIND ( @GrindTheCoin ) - From @Pons_ETH , the founder of the NFT project The Plague. The image is the rat below.
$bwob( @bwobcoin ) - SpongeBob meme coin.
$abby( @abbyexplorer ) - Gluttonous meme coin.
