I think them not looking like absolute dogshit puts me at a disadvantage. I would also like to be able to do this without learning what Ethereum is.
You will need to learn a bit about Ethereum. Basically tell him that you are developing a RPG where your character is represented by an NFT, which is going to make the game super cool and new and somehow better. Then tell him that you really really want to develop the game, you promise, but you don't have enough money so if he would just
purchaseinvest in an avatar now he would be funding the game's development and he would be getting in at the ground floor because it's 100% gaurenteed that in 5 years these game NFTs will be worth millions each.That's the basic script, it's already been done a couple times (look up Earth2, Evolved Apes, etc) but gamers keep falling for it
No no you're coming at this from the wrong angle. You're trying to attract finance bros, not gamers. Gamers are already growing weary of crypto stuff and NFTs in video games.
Nobody cares about what the product actually is, you have to go in-depth about how you can make money off of it. Many of these "projects" promise guaranteed returns on investments through shares of ingame sales, they say that with your super special early adopter NFT you will get a big advantage on the most valuable exclusive ingame assets which you can sell for a lot of money. Also a classic is that they'll promise the chance for free NFTs for "members" of your cool epic club.
What the game is or what you do in it doesn't matter. The finance bros don't understand and neither do they care. What you need is the promise of money, and that the earlier they invest the bigger the returns when the game definitely releases.
it also gives crypto brainworms so easily to artists earnestly trying to monetize
say you are minting your jpgs for whatever up front token cost, then planning to sell your jpgs by spamming self promo. it makes sense to buy more token than you need and keep some leftover change in your wallet right? you might clear your costs or even make profit on that change without ever selling one of your jpgs if the nft bubble pushes the value of the token up. :brainworms:
There's nothing wrong with the modern day Flash Dress-up Games for trans people, the issue was when feds and Zionist dipshits started co-opting that aesthetic.
Break them out into themed sections, call them “collections,” price most of the cheaply and then stagger price up to one or two quite expensive ones, get a few different wallets and start buying and selling the cheap collections between yourself, write off the gas fees, follow every single crypto account you possibly can on Twitter and set up accounts on all the NFT marketplace platforms
Good post, when you say selling to yourself and writing off the gas fees, you just mean that's the cost of getting visibility amongst increasingly whale-ish types?
