Metaverse is undoubtedly one of the hottest trends in the cryptocurrency industry and beyond.
It has also become a commonly-discussed topic within the traditional fintech world, especially after Facebook rebranded its company name to Meta in a bid to target metaverse developments.
In any case, all of the above has also led to a growing adoption of non-fungible tokens (NFTs), as if they weren’t thriving enough. The NFT space is currently the fastest growing space in cryptocurrencies, and there are many projects to illustrate this.
An upcoming NFT drop that’s gaining attention is IggyBoy.
What is IggyBoy NFT?
IggyBoy is an NFT collection of 10,000 high-quality, handcrafted 3D characters set to launch on February 20 – that’s the mint date. The presale price is set at 0.055 ETH, while the public sale price is 0.088 ETH.
The developer of the project is the team behind 1ATH.Studio and they aim to deliver something that’s truly one-of-a-kind. Every single NFT represents a piece of digital art that’s manually created by the 3D designers of the team. It’s interesting to note that, unlike many other projects, the team behind IggyBoy is well-known and doxxed – it’s not anonymous.
In addition, the team will also issue 376 separate non-fungible animated tokens that will be distributed through promotions, influencers, and various promoters. The team does not use any type of auto-gen tools, which is also supposed to increase the value of IggyBoy collectibles, which are completely handcrafted.
The NFTs are composed of 630 different traits ranging from skins, accessories, ears, eyes, mouth, hands, legs, animation, horns, and backgrounds. These will be forming the rarity of the tokens.
Part of an upcoming metaverse
In addition to being digital collectibles, IggyBoy NFT collectibles will also be part of an upcoming metaverse effort, also known as vUniversum, where they will star as main characters.
Holders of IggyBoy NFTs will be able to enjoy certain privileges when establishing the decentralized community of the metaverse and also get a simplified whitelisting procedure.
BAYC Members Eligible for IggyBoy Whitelisting
Whitelisted participants will have their wallet addresses pre-approved for minting during a specific time window. This means that if the user is whitelisted, they will have an advantage over other interested parties.
Holders of Bored Ape NFTs or otherwise known as members of the Bored Ape Yacht Club, will be offered direct spots on the IggyBoy whitelist.
Other users will be able to compete for 2500 spots on the whitelist, and some of the tasks they need to complete include following the Project Twitter and join their Discord.
The benefits of being whitelisted include a guaranteed opportunity to buy an NFT, as well as the right to purchase it for a discounted price of 0.055 ETH as opposed to the price for the public sale of 0.088 ETH.
Moreover, the project is also expected to be listed on CoinMarketCap after its launch.
