Almost there.
So many submissions, with so many amazing results. With the drop a week away, we are into the final prep stages.
Below in one image from each collaborator that has chosen to participate. Some will have multiple bitGAN Collabs, many 3, some only 1. More details soon, but…
THERE ARE TWO IMPORTANT THINGS THAT NEED TO BE DONE ASAP
(yes I was yelling!)
1: If we had a collab meeting and you do not see a contribution in this set, don’t fret, cause it should be in there - get in touch with me ASAP.
I am so disorganized and I promise you it was not because our collab wasn’t good enough. Every single collaborator that met with me made the cut. If you don’t see your name, I just lost the files in the confusion somewhere and I would need to find it. No big deal - just contact me so I can fix it!
2: I need to get the credits perfect! So please review this image and tell me if I got your name right…
Credits will be our names combined. I don’t care about order, but by default mine will be first as that has been requested by almost everyone I have spoken with. So as of right now, our credits will be -
Van Arman x [filename - “.gif”]
Please review your name and get back to me as soon as possible if it needs to change. Some examples of how they will appear are below:
Van Arman x Anirvedas
Van Arman x Architect
Van Arman x ATIK
Van Arman x Automagic
Van Arman x Be_the_Coin
Van Arman x Connery
Van Arman x ER90
Van Arman x Fresco Capital
etc…
Some final notes:
As far as names, I am weaving everyones suggestions into the story, lore, and rarity traits. It is simply too much to try and coordinate all that so I hope everyone can just trust me to go with it. If a bitGAN Collabs name is absolutely important to you, get in touch and I will be sure to give it special treatment.
As far as Collaboration split - After talking with each one of you, it seams like consensus is to split everything in thirds, with 1/3 of sale going to the collaborator, 1/3 to me, and 1/3 to a bitGAN fund (not a DAO) that will be used to support the community in a variety of ways as decided by the community. Ultimately, I will be overseeing the fund and trying to move it to something like a DAO, but I found many issues with putting it into a DAO today, so it will just have to be a community fund managed by me for now.
Anyways, thanks everyone as we go into final week of drop prep. This is best drop I have ever had, and I made it with you all, can’t wait to share more details and art.
