Well, blow me down with a feather! You know, I’ve seen a lot in my time in the crypto wilderness. But this? This is like finding a perfectly ripe apple in an orchard of sour lemons. Yes, ladies and gents, we’re diving headfirst into the rabbit hole with the folks over at Azuki.
The Night that Shook the Neon Jungle
The scene? Hakkasan Las Vegas, where the lights shine brighter than the twinkle in Elon Musk’s eye when he tweets about Dogecoin. It was here, amidst the clinking glasses and high hopes, that a certain co-founder named Zagabond decided to play his hand. And what a hand it was!
Introducing Azuki Elementals 🌊🔥🌳⚡
Four Domains. One Garden.
✦ Tuesday, June 27th
✦ 20,000 Elementals will join the Garden pic.twitter.com/z4QAsYaYoY— Azuki (@Azuki) June 24, 2023
Lightning, Earth, Water, Fire – The Gang’s All Here!
Zagabond, with the flair of a seasoned magician, pulled out the ace up his sleeve: the Azuki Elementals. A collection of 20,000 NFTs, each as unique as a snowflake and twice as cool. And these aren’t your run-of-the-mill tokens, oh no. These chaps come in all flavors – Lightning, Earth, Water, and Fire. Talk about a party mix!
Now, I hear you ask, “How do I get my hands on these hot commodities?” Well, brace yourself because it’s not for the faint-hearted. You see, Azuki isn’t just handing out these Elementals like free samples at a supermarket.Â
No, siree! There’s going to be an auction, and not just any auction – a Dutch auction, with a starting bid of 2 ETH. So you’d better be ready to put your money where your mouth is.
In the world of Azuki, it seems, the only constant is change. And one thing’s for sure: this new chapter in their story is going to be a scorcher!
So strap in, hold on to your hats, and prepare for a wild ride. Because when it comes to Azuki and their Elementals, you can bet your bottom dollar it’s going to be anything but ordinary.
Who Wants a Presale Sneak Peek?
Did you think Azuki would just let you sit on your laurels till the auction? Not on your nelly! As a special treat for their loyal Azuki holders, they decided to play Father Christmas in June and drop a locked Elemental in their wallets.Â
But, just like the best Christmas presents, these can’t be opened until the big day. Talk about building anticipation, eh?
In the High Stakes Game of NFTs, It’s Dutch or Bust
Remember when I said this was going to be a wild ride? Well, buckle up because it’s time for the main event. The public auction kicks off on June 27, and this isn’t some garden-variety auction, mind you. It’s a Dutch auction, starting at a hefty 2 ETH per Elemental. But don’t get your knickers in a twist. Every five minutes, the price drops by 0.1 ETH until all the Elementals have found their new homes.
The Early Bird Gets the… Elemental?
And if you’re an Azuki or BEANZ token holder, you’ve got a chance to beat the crowds. Presale access starts at 9:00 am PT, ten minutes before the public sale. But remember, it’s not all fun and games. A mandatory deposit of 2 ETH is required, and tokens remain non-transferable until the conclusion of the sale. So, make sure you’ve read the rulebook before you jump in.
A Word to the Wise: Stay Sharp, Stay Safe
Now, I know you’re all chomping at the bit to get started, but let’s take a moment to talk safety. Because as Uncle Ben once said, “With great NFTs come great responsibility.” Azuki’s reminded us all to keep our wits about us, especially during the mint. Watch out for dodgy links and scams dressed up in Azuki’s clothing. After all, you wouldn’t want your shiny new Elemental to end up in the wrong hands, would you?
In the End, It’s All Elemental, My Dear Watson
So, there you have it, folks! The latest chapter in the ever-evolving Azuki story. It’s a tale of anticipation, excitement, and Elementals – a dizzying blend of Lightning, Earth, Water, and Fire. As the countdown to June 27 begins, we can’t help but wonder: What will the next surprise be in this not-so-secret garden?
One thing’s for sure, in the world of Azuki, it’s always best to expect the unexpected. And don’t forget, whether you’re a seasoned NFT veteran or a curious newcomer, when it comes to this grand Dutch auction, we’re all in the same boat. So, keep your eyes on the prize, your Ether at the ready, and may the best bidder win. Good luck, and see you in the garden!
