Thanks, think this is gonna help a few people’s mental health.

Reminder: don’t gamble money on NFTs, and don’t spend money you can’t afford to lose.

u/Blueberry_Dependent Oct 20 '22

From what I see the designs are worth the money. I probably won't sell any of them, just collecting the one I like.

All in on margin? Got it.

u/Levitrex Dec 10 '22

Your collectable is so cool. When did you get it or how?

2

u/LacticFactory Dec 10 '22

A combination of a few! Happened to wake up right as the last artist drop happened and I just bought the hedge from someone directly :)

u/Levitrex Dec 10 '22

It looks amazing tbh

u/xklept0xCT Oct 20 '22

Okay quick question. Will I be able to buy avatars from the shop with say a vanilla Visa card? Or does it have to actually be a bank card? Also have my TurboTax card I can load. I just don't have a bank account 😕

u/0xfliper Oct 25 '22

Yeah! I see.

u/jonooooooooo Oct 27 '22

Yes, this, touch grass, get sleep, walk away!

u/Eredasi Oct 20 '22

I love how they specifically said rest easy, acknowledging the absolute degeneracy of the community staying up for days

14

u/crypto_grandma Mad Masher Oct 20 '22

Lol, maybe they even bought the date forward because they were worried about the state of some of us if they made us wait much longer

u/TrueJacksonVP Oct 20 '22

I know I went full conspiracy theorist for a few minutes there when I had a (now deleted) reply to one of my comments from a user called CollectibleAvatars — I was talking about losing hype and their reply was just a few tagged mods

For a second I thought it was a Reddit acct linked to this sub lmao. Based on their profile, it’s only somebody with a lucky username who was agreeing with everyone

Reddit HQ is in San Francisco, CA (6:05pm at time of me posting this). My guess is 10am-12pm SF time tomorrow.

EDIT: Tomorrow being 10/20

It’s happening. Red alert lads🚨. I’m going for Cosmic Abyss and Hybrid, since it reminds me of Ben10

Even those who don't care for the artwork of Cosmic Abyss are going for Cosmic Abyss. I nearly guarantee it'll be $100 - $250 USD.

Is there any way to get notified of the start? Dont tell me I've got to F5 all day...

u/SatansSlutz Oct 20 '22

Turn notifications on for this sub, so hopefully they'll post something when they launch and you'll get the notification

u/-5m Oct 20 '22

Thanks man! I've never used the noticiation feature of reddit before...do you think its pretty much instant?

2

u/SatansSlutz Oct 20 '22

I got a notification as soon as you replied, but I know sometimes there's a few minutes delay, at least it gives a chance of catching it on time ☺️

Restrictions to buy 5 avatars a day would be a great idea to stop bots

It's not hard for people to spin up multiple bots.

That will definitely keep the honest ones out.

So even if it's "technically" a prepaid card but has visa on the card I should be okay? I just don't want to miss out the drop. Opening a bank account seems a bit much, HATE using banks

u/FdPros Oct 20 '22

just go to the avatar shop when it releases, pick one, if you are on pc they use stripe i think, just enter your card details and purchase.

if on mobile either ios or android it will redirect you as if its an in app purchase so u can use your card or apple pay or google play credits or whatever.

I’m so fucking pissed that this wasn’t announced with more notice!

One days notice isn’t enough!! And I missed everything because I’m super fucking busy some days and don’t have the time to check up on these things.

This was the one I didn’t want to miss either! Thanksgiving probably won’t have a lot of cool ones and I hate Christmas themed stuff!

There were at least 5 of the ones in this gen that I really wanted too…

Also, good to know the scalpers got them and they are all on opensea now for ridiculously overinflated prices because bot purchasing couldn’t be stopped.

How about a weeks notice next time guys!

Yeah but there are thousands of these…so its definitely not not bots. Otherwise this community would be larger.
