Blockchain is round, and the topic of NFT has returned to CryptoKitties. Up to now, the total number of CryptoKitties is 1921015, and the number of users with at least one is as high as 86015, with a market turnover of 667970, valued at 59932.5 ETH. If you also subscribe to CryptoKitties' email, surely you get emails from time to time that make you sigh that it's still alive? Recently, I received a letter designed by wang maomao, the author of rabbit sky, which caught my attention. Let's have a look at CryptoKitties ; Lao lu's analysis of this activity and NFT's rethinking.

introduce

Tuzki is a set of animated expressions created by wang maomao (MOMO), a graduate of the animation department of communication university of China. It was acquired by Turner China, a subsidiary of time warner, and became its core IP.

"I, tuzki, you," which was first released in 2009, a year after bitcoin's birth, happened to buy a copy. Later, tuzki became popular on QQ and became the originator of emojis at that time. The story of tuzki no longer unfolds, once this IP  The author is also an internationally renowned illustrator.

Before an auction

Momo Wang  For & have spent CryptoKitties  Two of the four cats inspired by DADA ballet are reserved for Fancy Chase, while the remaining two will be auctioned off at the Nifty Gateway.

The first CryptoKitty Catterina is a special edition, the one on the left, limited to 100, initially priced at $100 each. The one on the right, Momo Wang Exclusive, will be auctioned off when it's all sold.

Half of the proceeds from this auction will go to & NBSP; Feeding America and the Canadian food bank provide safe food supplies to communities affected by covid-19. Your support will help ease the burden on these national channels, which have seen increased demand due to disease, shutdowns and work interruptions. It's a charity auction.

You also need to introduce a Nifty Gateway, & NBSP; It is a platform for collectors and artists, allowing users to buy goods with credit or debit CARDS. Used to exhibit and trade rare NFT art. Acquired in 2019 by the Gemini exchange, the us compliance exchange founded by the winklevoss twins. So there is no question that the NFT market is compliant.

Due to the time difference, the auction will start at 7am on May 15 in China. After ensuring that there is no problem in the payment channel of the auction, we will take an early break and wait for the next day's auction.

When the auction

The next day, a refreshing into the auction page, only half the amount, after the payment has not been deducted, after a few minutes have sold out, although the auction passed, but the sense of participation is still good. Can't buy 100 dollars can't buy a fool, the global limit of 100, but for the public welfare.

After the auction

The efficiency of block chain is high. It enters the secondary market as soon as the auction is finished one second ago, and the bidding price is four times higher than the original price, which makes the fans feel nft&awards. The charm.

The auction income is 10,000 dollars, the secondary market premium four times the transaction, we have done public welfare and earn auction income, the auction platform to get traffic, infatuated with the cat again to get attention, four win the situation.

Of course, the first one is just an appetizer, and the limit of 100 is a little too much. The highlight is Koshkat, and there is only one in the world. The higher the starting price is, the rules are clear.

A limited number is only one of the reasons for its rarity, including its special reserve number #222, a special supply of generation 0 rare cat.

Not only that, but also with a full suit on top of the small horn, the owner of the sense of honor MAX.

Kitten Mittens, nicknamed notkm at Nifty Gateway, also had a fierce bidding war. The marksup of 3500 to 5000 directly beat off whaleshark, and they hesitated from 7000 to 7100 until club1000 broke down to 10000. Notkm finally bought the Koshkat at 10,500 usd, equivalent to 52 ETH.

But the price paid for this cat is in the history of feline obsession even the first 30& NBSP; Can not enter, in the past said the transaction price is the first is & NBSP; Kitty 896775,600 ETH clinched a deal, while no. #0 genesis cat clinched a deal for 246.926 ETH. Koshkat  The deal with 52ETH is not high in the history of cat infatuation, but today in 2020, the infatuation of a cat to be able to shoot 52ETH is a good result. & have spent

Thinking 05

Artist Series Exclusive Auction  The series is the first attempt of CryptoKitties. The cat team is a very innovative and patient team. Besides the high financing, which is enough to support the development of the team, the persistence in exploring and continuously improving the products is better than most blockchain game projects.

In addition to AsyncArt  Programmable NFT concept, released after the new version & NBSP; Decentraland, hot successful Cryptovoxels ever detonated the etheric fang encryption cat can return to public view?

NFT  The field is not only the domain of blockchain game props, the mainstream category of NFT market in 2020 is the work of artists, whether the author is a designer/encryption artist/computer geek (computer is art).

In the wheat wallet DappStore category you can find nft-related apps on ethereum, Superrare ; And & have spent MakersPlace  This kind of encrypted artistic creation is more the product of artists, and buyers prefer the appearance and creativity of the author behind it and the artwork itself.

Maybe most people can't relate to these works, just like not everyone knows van gogh or Da Vinci. But it was the community of artists who formed their own culture through the ethereum platform and the NFT concept.

Earlier, I also paid attention to Block Create Art, which is a domestic brand focusing on Art creation and new culture research and development in the field of Block chain/cryptocurrency. It has opened an online micro store and physical exhibition hall, which is an example of the establishment of cultural innovation + Block chain.

This reminds me of the blind box of POP MART. The blind box economy is one of the hot words in 2019. Sales volume and popularity are here. The so-called blind box is usually filled with animation, the periphery of film and television works, popular toys, or dolls designed by designers alone.

In fact, history can trace back to Japan's twisted egg culture, which developed into a blind box culture that combines the role of IP, lottery and collection. Since the company was founded in 2010, it has raised 10 financing rounds and is rumored to be listing in Hong Kong soon.

Mainland toy retailer bubbly mart went public in Hong Kong, raising as much as 2.33 billion yuan

Chinese toy retailer bubblemart plans to raise us $200 million to us $300 million (hk $1.55 billion to hk $2.33 billion) in an IPO in Hong Kong this year, foreign media quoted market sources as saying. Citic Lyons and Morgan Stanley arranged the listing.

The company reportedly closed more than $100 million in pre-ipo financing in April from investors including sequoia Capital, huaxing Capital and Loyal Valley Capital.

Road map: twisted egg culture - blind box economy - online blind box - chain blind box?

Ciphers should be aware of that, too, Artist Series ; It is also an entry point to introduce well-known artists into cryptographic cat creation. It is also IP cultural creation + block chain, which introduces artists' works into the world of block chain. It not only conforms to the trend of NFT's development towards digital art, but also gives full play to the circulation value of artists' works by combining block chain. Looking forward to the next introduction of cryptocat artist works.

The crypto cat thinks again

When we talk about cryptocats again, it is no longer sky-high speculation, scientific breeding to get rich, simply list a few cryptocats in the NFT field of innovation.

1. & have spent Let NFT make a sound

In addition to a static image appearance, more and more dynamic NFT appears, if NFT& NBSP; Can I add sound files? When you Hover to this NFT ; ", a voice/music sequence is automatically played. Cryptocats have added their meows to the special-cats category.

Experience link :& NBSP; https://www.cryptokitties.co/

Can you imagine that the song is an NFT? After the buyout, you can receive the NFT of this album regularly. When a new song is sent to your wallet in the form of an NFT, the built-in player in the wallet can play the song that belongs to you completely.

Can you imagine pay-for-knowledge/newsflash/news as an NFT? After subscribing to these services, you can receive some NFT and listen to the pay-for-news/pay-for-knowledge content through your wallet.

2. Let NFT  I see you

This is basically done on the front end, in the same way that metamask's fox follows your mouse, with the eyes of the cat following your mouse.

Can let NFT  Show micro interaction, reminiscent of QQ pet and ruixing little lion.

3. & have spent Let the NFT 3 d & have spent the

And MegaCryptoPolis  Collaborate to turn your CryptoKitty into a 3D modeling cat in the game. Can also be Decentraland  It will be a matter of time before it is combined with VR and AR. In a recent American drama Upload, the protagonist in the virtual world with virtual friends to attend his own funeral, the screen is opposite a girlfriend in the real world, if there is a real world, pokemon and crypto cat should be in it.

Not far away, in 2033, six tech companies will be operating virtual reality hotels where the dying can "upload" to future generations. A staid Nora lives in brooklyn, New York, and provides "angel" support for the world behind "horizonen Lakeview". Los Angeles loafing programmer Nathan suffered an automatic driving accident, serious injury life hanging by a thread, material girlfriend inglish persuaded its permanent upload, into the Nora service of the haoli zen virtual reality world.

4. & have spent Enhance NFT liquidity

One of the weaknesses of NFT is the current market chaos and lack of liquidity. Realistic items such as bubble mart and BJD dolls can be found in stores such as xianyu. The crypto cat market itself has limited too many people because of its own barriers to entry.

Cipher cat in & NBSP; NFT's largest trading market & NBSP; Opensea  The total turnover was 1,885, far from the 667,970 on its own market, and the turnover of cryptocats in Opensea was only 199 ETH.

Hence the introduction of WCK  A crypto cat is equivalent to a WCK. The production cost of each crypto cat is about 0.008eth. The rules are as follows:

Users can send a crypto to the contract via the website and receive an ERC20& NBSP; WCK token

Users can send WCK tokens to the contract and get random crypto cats

Users can send a WCK token to a contract and receive a specific crypto cat

With WCK, it's easy to de-pack regular cats and trade in rare ones, at least a lot easier than selling them one by one for ETH and buying them again. The most expensive WCK transaction was made by 10,000 WCK.

Up to now, Wrapped Kitties contract has 52024, which is equivalent to 52024 WCK produced in the market. Lots of WCK. Because you can always get a piece of it. Exchange it for a crypto cat.

With Uniswap, you can trade large amounts of WCK without going to the exchange. Of course Binance wouldn't list them at the current size of WCK, despite the clamor.

5. NFT  Interoperability & NBSP; KittyVerse

When people talk about ethereum, a defiant & defiant attitude; When it comes to interoperability, Furucombo appears, lowering the challenge & challenge. Thresholds for interoperability between applications.

However, ciphercat has brought NFT to other 11 dapps, so how to use this article will not be expanded for the time being.

In fact, this kind of interoperability involves the renewal of Nifty license. Third parties have great freedom to develop their own Dapp by using cryptocats. If the commercialization is less than $100,000, they do not need to apply for special commercial license with cryptocats.

6. NFT  Genetic tools

After the release of CryptoKitties, hardcore users spent more than a month deciphering the secrets of genes. Now they are trying to maximise the efficiency of the market and make the most of this discovery.

By typing in the ID  of the two cats; It can be inferred which species and characteristics are produced. Also can know a cat's genetic bias, and other cats with a high probability of breeding the emergence of the species, greatly convenient for users who like to breed.

There are 148 types of exclusive ether cats, 111 of which have a world quantity of 1 and 15 of which have a world quantity of 2. The average person can't collect them, and it's difficult to get them in a way that rewards the web's two millionth cat. High winds, owner quoted at 250 ETH.
