📻 Redacted x Mintify Redacted has made a strategic investment in Mintify, adding its *200K-strong user base* to our ranks, bolstering the Redacted Ecosystem. Additionally, @Mintify is acquiring @Magically_gg, evolving into the next-gen cross-chain marketplace. What does this mean for holders? Read below!

With $RDAC TGA imminent, I've seen a lot of uncertainty among new and potential holders who doubt what the @JirasanOfficial team is capable of. Let me walk you down memory lane so you understand what crazy mfrs you are dealing with. Here's my list of all @JirasanOfficial launches and my ratings for them. GEN1 [?/10]: I was not there for it, but it couldn't get any better when you talk about an OG NFT collection. Retro pixel art, small supply, great founders @jamkaa_mgl and @shanicucic96 made history with a 0.05 ETH mint price to 23 ETH ATH... GEN2 [7/10]: Getting whitelisted for this collection with 3333 supply was fucking hard. I remember being euphoric when my wallet was whitelisted for being a Chad in the @AscendedOasis discord (thanks, @Swaggerstallion). The mint price was 0.2. It went to 2ETH pre-reveal, and the community liked the art. Gen 2's ran to 7ETH ATH... $JIRA [7/10]: @shanicucic96 was the first to discuss a marketplace selling WLs with erc20 tokens generated by staking NFTs. Ramo allegedly stole the idea for Habibiz (I know, right), but PG made its version of the marketplace. At a certain point, the $JIRA token was trading at crazy valuations ($200$ worth of $JIRA per day per NFT). FUSION [5/10]: A crazy idea of fusing two existing GEN2s to get a new, more "powerful" NFT. While it looked like a great innovation and interesting gamified mint where you could spend $JIRA to reroll your fused jiras at the mint, I think it was a bad move in the long term. It overcomplicated the ecosystem, making many people not understand how the PG collections worked. Artwise, the Fusions got mixed reactions. JIRAVERSE [4/10]: Maybe the biggest fumble from @JirasanOfficial. Again, great vision and innovative thinking. Create an NFT collection that incorporates 3 NFTs in one with stage reveals. The mint was a stellar experience - the first stage was to reveal Jiravoxels - a bet on the metaverse (let's not go there). The art and implementation were great, but there was one big issue - the NFT bear market arrived, and phases two and three were abandoned. We will probably never know what magical treasures lay behind those phases. Kudos to the team for acknowledging the fuck up and refunding all diamond hands. DEADJIRA [8/10]: Enter the ordinals hype—sub 100k ordinal collection with a supply of 100. Few were able to mint at a price of 1ETH. The art is spot on; the ATH sale was at 0.4 BTC! It's a collector's item - go now and get one for cheap so your children can be proud of you in 30 years. ORDINAL WAR [7.5/10]: Another sub-100k ordinal collection that innovated the mint process. You bought ETH nfts that would be bridged to the $BTC chain later. The PG ordinal team led by @shin_raton gave an early investment opportunity in a hyped new tech. The ones who believed managed to get much value out of it. SPITBUDDIES [3/10]: This should have been a lesson for @JirasanOfficial to choose partners more carefully. In this space, reputation is hard-earned but easily lost. RIP @Llamaverse_ $BTOC [9.5/10] Yes, you read it right. I'm giving almost a perfect score for the brc20 launch of PG. While the tech faded into oblivion, the team delivered an incredibly professional launch. The marketing was spot on. When it came to the mint day, it was a complete disaster at first because things were overcomplicated for no reason. The hired devs had to implement payments in SOL, BTC, and ETH—a total failure. Usually, a botched mint means game over, but PG is made of materials not found on Earth. A few days later, everything was fully minted using a different dev team. I have not seen such a recovery in my web3 career, hence my almost perfect rating. JIRASAN [10/10]: Consolidating all collections into a single 10k one. Complex task communication and a lot of technical challenges. The art was a big question mark. It turned out great and is one of the best in the space. If you still don't understand how crazy good of a collection JIRASAN is, I can't help you. What is your favorite Project Godjira Jirasan moment? Do you agree or disagree with my ratings?
