Bored Ape Yacht Club's Metaverse "The Otherside" goes live

 


Bored Ape Yacht Club's Metaverse "The Otherside" goes live. Users can now purchase virtual pieces of land, Otherdeeds.   With a bit of luck, they win rare resources or even a Koda, these are the new NFT characters of the BAYC ecosystem.


The day has come. The long-awaited launch of The Otherside is upon us. This is the metaverse of the Bored Ape Yacht Club and is set to represent the largest event in NFT history to date: a sale of virtual properties worth over US$400 million.



Only $APE, the currency of the multi-billion dollar BAYC ecosystem, is accepted. This is now even officially accepted by Opensea . Not least because of this, the price of the cryptocurrency has shot up in the last few days. For all information regarding ApeCoin we have put together a detailed guide for you.



In order to be eligible to purchase the coveted virtual land, one had to register via KYC for the past few weeks. KYC stands for "Know Your Customer". In German it means know your customer. This means the identification of customers on the basis of money laundering requirements. However, for many crypto natives, personal identification is a no-go, which could give the secondary market a huge boost.


In total there will be 200,000 Bored Ape Yacht Clubs Otherdeeds

Yuga Labs is the company behind The Otherside and the Bored Apes. This put a colorful ecosystem on its feet, which was estimated at a proud 4 billion US dollars in the financing round of March 22, 2022. The round took place shortly after the launch of ApeCoin. Now you start your own Metaverse.


That's why Yuga Labs is now releasing a total of 200,000 Otherdeeds. This should happen in 2 passes. One will take place today, April 30, 2022, and the other will be held in August. A plot of land costs 305 $APE, about 7200 USD at the point of view of the article.



At today's price of Apecoin ($APE), around $23, that's over $1 billion for Yuga Labs. The $APE that you earn are locked for a year and thus taken off the market.


In the first drop, 55,000 will be sold to the general public. 15,000 will be held for undisclosed purposes and 30,000 will be airdropped to members of the BAYC ecosystem. This is, by far, the biggest NFT drop in history.


The Otherside, Rare Resources and Kodas

Yuga Labs clarified that the Otherside is a MetaRPG . RPG stands for Roleplaygame, in German role-playing games. Many video games have successfully managed to bring fascinating fantasy universes into the world and they want to orientate themselves with "The Otherside". Create a universe where users can bring their own NFTs and trade for real money.


“A brand new gaming experience where money is real, you actually own your land and resources, everyone can bring their own NFT character, and everyone can create in-game assets. It's not just a game, it's a whole new economy."


The Otherdeeds: Kodas and Resources.

Because of this, the Otherdeeds come with rare resources or even new NFT beings: the Kodas . There are only 10,000 of these rare heavenly characters that are responsible for maintaining the virtual universe


The general public expects these to be tradable upwards of 10 ETH. With 100,000 pieces of land, resources and kodas, this is also a strong test for the NFT market. Can the NFT community provide enough liquidity to sustain these prices?

From offchain to offchain: Statechains meets Lightning

  Without a doubt, the most significant off-chain Bitcoin solution is the Lightning network. But in its wake, the statechain has emerged as an intriguing replacement. There is currently a proposal to link the two offchain networks. From an ocean, for example, you can see sunbeams glistening in the water, waves rippling, and possibly a jellyfish drifting toward the light. But you only see a small portion of it. The distance from the sea's surface to its bottom is hundreds of meters. It has dozens of different fish species swimming in it, crabs and starfish crawling on the bottom, shells clinging to rocks, and sea plants climbing up. A completely new world starts where your gaze diverges. You can picture a blockchain like Bitcoin, just like the sea. What you see on the outside is only a small portion of what is actually there; the set of UTXOs (coins) and transaction history that full nodes store are just the beginning of a much larger world. It's the plan, at least. With Bitcoin...

Phishing attack on popular crypto sites tries to empty wallets

  Several major crypto sites such as Etherscan, CoinGecko, DeFi Pulse, and others report malicious pop-ups scammers use to try to trick users into connecting their MetaMask wallets. The phishing attack came from a domain displaying the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) logo. "We are investigating the root cause of this attack to fix the threat as soon as possible," CoinGecko founder Bobby Ong tweeted. The phishing attack appears to have been triggered by a malicious ad script from Coinzilla, a crypto ad network, according to CoinGecko. Etherscan also advises its users not to confirm any transactions that may appear on the website. The attackers attempted to use the hype around the “bored monkeys” non-fungible tokens (NFT) to gain access to the cryptocurrencies of unsuspecting website visitors. Although the websites affected by the scam attempt have reacted in the last few hours and deactivated the advertising pop-up, it is still recommended not to connect your MetaMask wallet to ne...

Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs stolen through phishing on Instagram

  Bored Ape Yacht Club ( BAYC ) developers announced on Monday that hackers have hijacked the official Instagram page of the popular NFT collection and posted links to a fake airdrop. Crypto enthusiasts who connected their MetaMask wallet to the rogue website subsequently had their Ape NFTs stolen. Apparently, the attack was planned to coincide with the one-year anniversary of the BAYC collection. This increased the "perceived credibility" of the phishing link. About 100 NFTs are said to have been stolen in the phishing attack . According to CoinGecko data , the minimum price for a BAYC NFT is 139 Ether ( ETH ) or $400,726. So if reports are correct, over $40 million worth of NFTs were stolen in the attack. These numbers are only the lowest estimate, however, as they are based on the lowest price.  At the time of writing, it was still unclear how the hackers gained access to BAYC's official Instagram account. Social media users have pointed out the importance of two-fact...
