BYOLand: Enter Into The BYOVERSE

Everything you need to know about the upcoming BYOLand launch.
Dec 9, 2021 10:45 PM

As it stands, the BYOVERSE is a fertile virgin land, filled with complexities and opportunities, and truly is a region distinguished by superlatives. We need you to shape the future of the BYOVERSE and cultivate the lands we're going to live on.

A finite resource, only 10,056 BYOLand parcels will ever exist in the BYOVERSE. Each uniquely abundant, with varying terrains and resources created by your BYOPill. The BYOPill you choose to mint your BYOLand with will alter its terrain and the resources it provides, shaping the BYOVERSE of the future.

• Pill Top impacts the terrain of your BYOLand, allowing you to mine resources mainly used for crafting.

• Pill Ingredient impacts the resources cultivated on your BYOLand, allowing you to gather these resources mainly for consumption.

• Sum of all your Trip Effect Levels impacts the abundancy of your land and the number of resources it can provide in any given timeframe.

Gather resources, consume or use them to craft items to enhance your gameplay, sell them on the future marketplace, or convert them to $TRYP, the future governance token which enables exclusive marketplace purchases, breeding, and many more.

BYOLAND UTILITY

• Land will produce resources that you will be able to gather for your own use. Your lands resource will depend on the pill top/ingredient/sum of trip levels of the pill that it was minted with. Resources are key ingredients in the BYOVERSE, as you'll need them to craft a wide range of items, consume them to survive or enhance gameplay, sell them on the marketplace, or even convert them to $TRYP. Resources will have varying utility and rarities like that of pill traits.

Example: Eyeball ingredient will spawn mobs on your land that drop eyeballs, needed to craft consumables that grant enhanced vision or even invisibility.

• Scavengers roaming the BYOVERSE will be able to gather resources from your land, while paying you tax in the process. This gives you % allocation of the number of resources they are gathering.

• Land will be customizable and upgradeable, allowing you to build your own base to protect your resources from scavengers (if you want them all to yourself), or to upgrade your land for more efficient harvesting.

• Interacting with, building onto, and tending to your land will earn you $TRYP.

• Owning multiple adjacent land will boost resource production and will provide more options when it comes to forming your base.

• Land also doubles as your personal safe storage zone, allowing you to safely stash everything you've collected in the BYOVERSE with ease of mind knowing you won't lose them (e.g. via death).

• When in danger, or for quick mobility, you will be able to teleport back to your land at any time (excl. cooldown). Land also acts as your personal safe zone, a place where you can't attack, or be attacked.

• The different tiers of Apostles will impact how efficient you manage your land (e.g. an Ancient can harvest more resources than a Psychonaut at a given time). **Note: non-Apostle holders who own Land will be able to access and explore the BYOVERSE with a generic avatar**

More utility will be provided to BYOLand as we continue to build the BYOVERSE and the project as a whole. Holders will always get rewarded.

MINTING MECHANICS

A BYOPill and BYOVape are needed to purchase BYOLand. 1 BYOPill + 1 BYOVape = Eligibility for 1 BYOLand. A BYOPill can’t be used more than once to mint BYOLand. Otherwise, you'll have to purchase any remaining land parcels in the public launch (which don’t require a pill or vape).

Wen Land?-  Land sale for Pill & Vape holders will begin on Thursday, December 16th (12/16) @9:00am EST and last 8 hours until 5:00pm EST.

Price for holders - 0.1 ETH per BYOLand.  

Public Sale - Remaining land will be sold to the public starting on Thursday, December 16th (12/16) @ 5:00pm EST.

Price for public - Reverse Dutch Auction starting at 1 ETH and decreasing at a set interval until price hits a floor of 0.2 ETH over a period of 3 hours.

Since public launch does not require a pill, the terrain, resources and abundancy of BYOLand purchased will be randomly generated based on existing pill top/ingredient/trip level rarities. Rarity probabilities will be assigned to buckets, with chances at rare land traits decreasing as the price point decreases.  (Example: person who purchases land at 1 ETH will get placed in a bucket with higher probabilities of rare terrain/resources/abundancy then a person who purchased at 0.8 ETH).

Note: The additional 56 parcels of land will be given to those who are most active in our community - specifically the top 10 on the Mee6 leaderboard as of this announcement - as well as to future giveaway winners

THREE PHASES OF BYOLAND LAUNCH

The launch of BYOLand will take place over a period of approximately 1 month.

Phase 1: Minting - Snapshot of pill holders followed by a private sale and then a public sale

Phase 2: Metadata - We will begin updating everyone's metadata to reflect their BYOLands' terrain, resources and abundancy. For holders, land metadata will be based on the pill used to mint. For the public, land metadata will be based on probability buckets.

Phase 3: Land Selection - Everyone will be able to select their land location from the BYOVERSE map which will be dynamic and change based on the types of land minted and their metadata. Each land terrain will have its own zone on the map to select from. Private sale will be prioritized over public sale in land selection.
