In the fast-paced world of NFTs, few collections manage to capture the imagination and excitement of the community as effectively as the Bear and Bull NFT Phase 2 collection. With 3,333 unique NFTs minted at a reasonable 0.025 ETH each, the collection officially came to life on January 12th, 2024, seamlessly following the meticulously planned schedule.
From the outset, Cryptoequip, the brain behind Bear and Bull NFT, assured the community that this project was different. The anticipation built as an early announcement hinted at a utility revelation slated for February 2nd. What followed was a pledge from Cryptoequip himself, stating, “If, after being in the community this month, spending time with all of us, seeing the utility of Phase Two, learning about all that we are doing with the other collections, and you are still not happy with the way the future looks, you are welcome to open a ticket for a full refund of your mint price at this time, up to 90 days from when the mint began.” This guarantee remained intact, giving investors a unique safety net in the unpredictable world of NFTs.
FEBRUARY 2ND – THE UTILITY UNVEILING AND THE UNPRECEDENTED BENEFITS FOR HOLDERS.
True to the Cryptoequip ethos of ‘Expect the Unexpected,’ February 2nd brought the utility announcement titled “Thrive or Die: The Ultimate Ride #BOURISH.” The #BBNFT family experienced an astonishing revelation that set this project apart.
Cryptoequip reaffirmed the ETH Back Guarantee attached to Phase Two, and in a groundbreaking move, declared that, “In six months from this day of announcement, every Phase Two NFT holder will be airdropped the full public mint price of 0.025 ETH.” This unique proposition left holders in awe, essentially meaning that they had minted the NFTs for free. Even more enticingly, for the next 60 days, holders had the option to return their NFT and receive a full refund without any questions asked. Now picture this: envision the community of steadfast Diamond hand holders-individuals who secured their position through airdrops by utilizing their Alpha points and Bullets, or those fortunate enough to be on the White List and minted for a mere $45!
CATCHING THE CURVEBALL: THE DEFLATIONARY NATURE
However, there was a catch – any returned NFTs or those swept by Cryptoequip from his personal addy would no longer be reintroduced into public circulation, ensuring the deflationary nature of the Phase Two collection.
IRL COLLECTIBLES: A TANGIBLE CONNECTION
Amidst these revelations, The utility announcement further surprised and delighted the community by revealing plans for real-life collectibles of Bear-Bull figurines. Manufactured in the same factory as Disney, these figurines promised interchangeable parts, including hats, accessories, and even horns. The possibilities seemed endless, sparking excitement among collectors.
The Pilot IRL Bear-Bull figurines Collectibles Collection, limited to 250 pieces, is set to launch in March. These will be minted on BASE (ETH L2), with each NFT having a VRM Avatar attached. Furthermore, each NFT will come with a claim for an IRL deliverable (Collectible Figure) shipping in April, complete with Bear and Bull Croc Charms, stickers, and more.
QUARTERLY AIRDROPS: PROFITS FOR HOLDERS
THE EXCITEMENT DOESN’T END THERE…
Following the successful pilot launch, BBNFT plans to release larger IRL Collectible Collections. Holders of Phase Two tokens will enjoy quarterly airdrops of profits from these collections. Notably, tokens swept from Cryptoequip’s personal address or returned by holders will not be eligible for these airdrops, making the Phase Two collection genuinely deflationary.
The visionary nature of Cryptoequip and the BBNFT project doesn’t
stop with physical collectibles. The utility extends to metaverse compatibility, with each NFT having a unique metaverse Avatar connected to the collectible figure’s manufacturer, known for producing toys for iconic brands like Pokémon, Disney, Marvel, and more.
METAVERSE COMPATIBILITY: BEYOND THE PHYSICAL REALM
Cryptoequip tantalizingly hinted at augmented reality, envisioning an app where users can scan a QR code on their collectible’s box, bringing the figure to life on their mobile device. While details are still pending, the prospect is undeniably thrilling and indicative of the innovative direction the project is taking. As we embark on this exciting journey with BBNFT, the possibilities seem boundless. The project promises not only tangible and virtual collectibles but also a groundbreaking app that could revolutionize the way we interact with our favorite items. The ultimate question posed by Cryptoequip, “Thrive or Die?” remains open-ended, leaving us on the edge of our seats, eagerly anticipating the next revelation from this trailblazing NFT project. The Bear and Bull NFT Phase 2 is not just an NFT collection; it’s a revolution in the making.
