As the Lunar New Year approaches, the Abstract mainnet is also about to launch. Magic Eden's Official Twitter posted a tweet early this morning, stating that the Abstract mainnet will launch tomorrow:
At this time, there is a sense of ushering in the new for the entire Non-Fungible Token (NFT) market. After the acquisition of Pudgy Penguins by its parent company Igloo, and the successful token $PENGU of Pudgy Penguins, NFT players and the entire market are full of expectations for this new chain, Abstract.
How to participate in the Abstract ecosystem?
Airdrop Acquisition Outlook
Previously, Abstract has announced their incentive system, Abstract Incentives.
This incentive system will incentivize 3 different groups:
- Developers: Build and deploy Apps on Abstract, and receive corresponding XP rewards based on user usage. There will also be a monthly award event for outstanding developers, with additional XP rewards.
- Users: Use the Apps on Abstract, and receive weekly XP rewards.
- Content Creators: Livestream on Abstract to earn XP rewards. (Abstract has already opened up the application for streamers, portal)
In general, we need to continuously and deeply participate in various projects on the Abstract chain to maximize airdrop benefits. They have also designed a badge system, including "Weekly Badge", "Raid Activity Badge", and "Mystery Badge", which can clearly guide users to use a series of Apps on Abstract based on the names.
Compared to Blast, the more prominent point is that Abstract will have its own livestreaming platform, Abstract Live. The resource consumption of the livestreaming platform is very large, so in the early stage, we may only see large influencers invited to the platform for livestreaming, rather than a fully open platform (of course, a fully open platform will definitely be a mess, and there will definitely be people livestreaming eating and sleeping 24 hours a day to farm airdrops...). It is unclear whether XP can be transferred? The Gold points on Blats can be issued by the project parties to users for incentives, so there will also be competition between projects, and it is not yet clear whether Abstract will learn from this.
Projects Worth Participating In
Abstract has previously released an ecosystem project map:
Based on the above classification, I have selected the projects that I personally think are worth paying attention to.
NFT Projects
First of all, the NFT projects on Abstract have basically completed a large part of the startup process before the official launch through pre-sales and whitelist distribution, so it is now relatively late to participate. Here, I will list the projects that I personally think are more popular, which can help you better track the dynamics of the secondary market after the mainnet launch.
Canna Sapiens(@CannaSapiensNFT) - Total supply 4000, price to be determined, IP narrative, with token issuance plan.
Ruyui(@RuyuiStudios) - Total supply 7777, price 0.07 ETH, IP + game narrative, with token issuance plan.
Kabu(@kabuxyz) - Total supply 7000, IP narrative, has completed a pre-sale of 1000 pieces at 0.038 ETH.
Final Bosu(@finalbosuX) - The second series on Abstract, total supply and price to be determined, anime IP narrative. The old series currently has a floor price of 1.95 ETH, and holding the old series can get 1 Free Mint and 1 guaranteed whitelist. The whitelist activity on the official website is still ongoing (portal)
Abstract Hotdog(@AbstractHotDogs) - Total supply 3333, price 0.035 ETH, 1500 pieces have been sold through pre-sale at 0.025 ETH. They have token issuance plans. In addition, they have also reached a cooperation with Brave browser.
Pengztracted(@pengztracted) - Total supply 7777, Free Mint. Penguin-themed, currently appears to be a pure art project.
Game Projects
Since the Abstract airdrop requires in-depth participation in ecosystem projects, game projects are particularly worth paying attention to, as they may allow you to enjoy the fun of the game while also reaping the benefits of the Abstract airdrop.
Vibes(Pudgy TCG @ocapgames) + Pudgy World(@PudgyWorld_) - Vibes(Pudgy TCG) is a card game based on the Pudgy Penguin IP, and Pudgy World is almost like a "QQ pet" for Pudgy Penguins. There is not much to elaborate on the gameplay, but they must be included because they are the company's own projects.
Onchain Heroes(@onchainheroes) - An on-chain game built by the former dev lead of Wolf Game, @skarlywarly. This on-chain game is neither the particularly hardcore and not yet highly playable "autonomous world", nor the "chain game" with refined content on PC or mobile. It is just like Wolf Game, a intersection of the two. This will be an easy-to-learn but difficult-to-master idle game, where you may only need to spend 15-20 minutes a day on actual gameplay, but you will need to spend a lot of time after the game thinking about your strategy, encouraging players to communicate and make decisions based on their own risk preferences in a fair competitive environment with incomplete information.
The game character Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) of this series will be minted after the launch of the Abstract mainnet. Currently, holding the Onchain Heroes Genesis Ring NFT can get 1 Free Mint + 2 guaranteed whitelists, and the current floor price of this NFT is 3 ETH.
Gigaverse(@playgigaverse) - Similar to Onchain Heroes above, this is also an on-chain game, an RPG type, led by @0xDith, a member of the Pirate Nation team (mentioning Pirate Nation, a full-chain game that received $33 million in funding from a16z during the bear market, Gigaverse will also use the Proof of Play underlying infrastructure behind Pirate Nation).
The whitelist for the game character NFTs has already been mostly distributed, waiting for minting.
DUPER(@playduper) - Raised $8.7 million from institutions such as Bain Capital Crypto, Coinbase, and Niantic, originally built on Arbitrum. This game is generally a social strategy game, as the condition for winning the game is to first occupy 11 map grids or a straight flush, the deployment of troops to occupy the map and the hand cards are related, players can exchange the required hand cards in the game, and the final victory may not necessarily be the player who collects the most benefits (the distribution of benefits is based on who collects the most gems).
There will be a Free Mint series Genesis Ace of Spade with a total supply of 999, with token distribution and in-game rights.
Monsters.fun(@monstersdotfun) - AI arena on Abstract, you can generate an Agent by inputting your own Prompt, and at the same time generate a joint curve token, the winner's token rises and the loser's token falls.
Currently, you can register on the official website and get priority access by inviting people (portal).
77-bit(@the77bit) - Cyberpunk-style MMORPG, developed by Analog Games, currently has an official website activity to get rewards. (portal) This project is an old project, the NFT series was already released in 2022, and the current floor price is 0.32 ETH.
Social Projects
Boost.gg(@boostdotgg) - This is the well-known NFT whitelist lottery tool AlphaBot, you can now register on the official website to get early access (portal). They will issue tokens, and you can grab them now, but it's on AlphaBot (basically just a lottery airdrop). The essence of this thing is the same as AlphaBot, both are platforms provided for clients who need user growth. If AlphaBot is only in the small track of NFT, Boost.gg is to integrate the demand side, creators, and users into one through token incentives.
UGC.fun(Create Layer @createlayer) - Project parties can deposit their own tokens into the reward pool, and content creators help write related tweets to grab the rewards. This project mentioned that behavior on it will earn XP on their platform, which should be a token-issuing project. You can currently register on the official website to enter the Waitlist (portal).
noodles.fun(@noodlesdotfun) - Based on the description on the Official Twitter, I think this is more like the Friend Tech on Abstract (or the recently popular Clout and Tribe), where fans can buy their own tokens and interact with their fan base based on that.
Prediction Market/Gambling Projects
Myriad(@MyriadMarkets) - A prediction market project under DASTAN, and is a sister company of Rug Radio, Decrypt, etc., so the holders of Rug Radio NFT will have an airdrop of their token $MYR later.
Multiplier(@multiplierfun) - This is quite interesting, a "green candle" maker in the market. You can choose your favorite small-cap meme coin, then set a multiplier, and bet ETH on it. If the final multiplier given by the system is less than the one you chose, then the project party will take your ETH, and give you their own tokens. Otherwise, the system will use the treasury to buy the corresponding meme coin, and return (the amount you bet * multiplier) in equivalent meme coins.
If there are many players, the market may see a lot of inexplicable green candles on some coins. Then as the winner, you can choose to water or diamond hand in the chaos.
Gacha(formerly Swipe @gacha_game_) - On-chain scratch card, if the price is right, it can replace the Web2 scratch card in the future, after all, you can still grab the airdrop here...
Launchpad
Buzz.fun(@buzzdotfun) - The pump.fun on Abstract, will have its own token $BUZZ.
AI Projects
Neura(@NeuraADND) - Neura is not a conventional AI image generation platform, in fact, the team behind Neura, Adanede, 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 Neura's creation. Different Android NFTs will give Neura different creative styles, and each user will be a unique node of Neura. Currently, Neura has created the first series "The Memories" and completed the Free Mint, with a current floor price of 0.2 ETH.
Meme Coins
$PENGU - Although putting this in may seem a bit like looking for trouble, but it has to be put in... $PENGU will most likely support bridging to Abstract later.
$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) - Greedy beast image meme coin.
