! Lots of learnings to take from it, both positives and areas to learn from. I wanted to highlight one specific area we worked hard on and break it down a bit:
Randomization
There were two different randomization concepts for this drop:
1) Selection process
2) Luggage variants
The aim of both was to be as fair, transparent, and trustless as possible.
Selection process
All entries were assessed for certain criteria prior to being added to a raffle wave. This means that for all entries, even if they were already added in the queue, we re-assessed to make sure they meet requirements and then go a randomization roll
Selection process
The idea was to do a live selection using a variety of data, including that on-chain, to determine acceptance into that raffle wave. That is why you saw waves parsed out in smaller batches throughout the mint to perform this selection.
Selection process
The roll took into account many factors, including your Clone X holdings to increase your odds in the raffle. While the process was as trustless as possible, clone holders (more % per clone) and verified real accounts were given priority.
Luggage Variants
You may have noticed throughout the mint you received a tokenId from 1-4 when minting luggage. This randomization was done trustlessly with
@chainlink
VRF to ensure we had 0 impact on the final results.
Luggage Variants
After the mint, metadata was updated to reflect the rarity mechanism but note that all the randomization was done on chain, only the metadata/asset was updated to reflect what the chain already chose
This was a lot of fun to think through the fairest way to organize the drop, and yes there were some hiccups, but Iβm looking forward to taking the good with the bad to continue coming up with the best solutions we can. Thanks for joining us today and your patience as always!
P.S. shout out to the whole team at

. Being behind the scenes, I can see how crazy hard everyone is working and itβs inspiring to work along side them. Itβs not easy to work in Web3, but I donβt think anyone would change it ππ«‘

Sorry but I was there & it was so bad, staring 2.5h on a screen only to lose out to bots. Scrap that draw mechanics & use WL system. Also the boost you gave to CloneX holders did nothing when competing with hundred thousands bots looping transactions. Bots won, whatβs the point?

Thanks for this insight and explanation!
Itβs great to know.ππ
And thank you and the team for your exceptionally hard work and for what must have been many long and stressful hours/days on this drop.

Was it mentioned that each wallet can only mint 1 luggage? Or hold 1 luggage in their wallet? Apparently this wallet was 'lucky' enough to be selected to mint twice?

The selection randomness didn't have an impact on the luggage variants. Once you were selected, you had the same odds as everyone else to mint the different types of luggage
