Distribution:

  • 2,250 entries available through a free mint.
  • 250 pack entries (tokens 0-249) pulled from the Blokpax Summer Elite Drop.

Important Dates:

  • August 8th 2PM EDT: We will be opening the premint.xyz list.
  • August 15th 2PM EDT: Closing the premint.xyz list.
  • August 17th 12:00PM EDT: Announcing the allow list.
  • August 18th 12:00PM EDT: Mint opens. Allow list has 24 hours to mint.
  • August 19th 12:00PM EDT: Waitlist opens until 6PM EDT. If there are still minting spots available by 6PM EDT we will then open it to the public.
  • August 22nd 2PM EDT: The first reveal takes place.

How the game works:

On August 22nd at 2PM EDT, 1,600 of the entries will be revealed as “common” trading cards.  They will get the “common” background design and they will live forever as a collectible Punk Trading Card (the first officially licensed trading card of its kind fwiw.)

Entries not revealed as “commons” are lucky winners this round and move 1 step closer to the big prize.  In theory, their value also increased significantly by being in the final 900 left standing.

The next round will reveal 500 more of the Punk trading cards as “Aqua Tier Parallels.”  Although eliminated from winning the Punk, these are now more limited blockchain collectibles that live forever on Ethereum.  Those that don’t reveal as Aqua Parallels win this round, and are now in the rarified air of the final 400 left standing.

Next, we reveal 250 Blue parallels.  Same process. The 150 left standing are really making things interesting now.

Now… it’s time for 99 Red Parallels to reveal.  The winners of this round are in the final 51!

Lastly, it’s time to crown our BIG winner.

Of the 51 entries remaining. 50 of them will become Gold Parallels leaving 1 winner standing as the 1/1 Black Hologram holder.

The holder of the 1/1 Black Hologram will be airdropped the punk.

Important Gameplay Mechanic:

Tokens 0-249 were randomly inserted into packs from our 2022 Summer Elite Drop and they have some special powers.  These specific token numbers are guaranteed to be Blue parallels or better.  So, if you want to guarantee yourself of making it to the Blue round or higher, and don’t already have one, these are tokens to chase.

The right to hold one of these tokens came from the rip of over 60,000 digital packs.  So they were hard to find and their bye in the first two rounds of eliminations was well earned! The fate of these entries is NOT pre-determined.  An on chain random decides which entries eliminate EACH round (using Chainlink).   Tokens 0-249 will not be eligible for elimination until the “Blue Round” as noted but, once we reach that round, these tokens lose their special power and the random treats them the same as all other entries.

Have questions?

Here are some answers to commonly asked questions. Did we miss something? DM us on Twitter to ask anything else.

Yes. ~50 million list registrations have happened on PREMINT without issue. When you sign in with PREMINT, you only are validating ownership of the wallet address. PREMINT does not get any permissions to perform transactions and does not have any way of withdrawing anything from your wallet.
Premint has been used by some of the top artists and collections in the NFT ecosystem, including XCOPY, Coldie, DeekayMotion, Cool Cats, Known Origin, Async Art, Shaq, and over 25,000 more.
Signing is the only way we can truly know that you are the owner of the wallet you are connecting. Signing is a safe, gas-less transaction that does not in any way give PREMINT permission to perform any transactions with your wallet.
PREMINT saves your wallet and social info as a part of the registration step, so you can disconnect everything afterwards and your entry is still valid.
As far as PREMINT is concerned, yes, but the project owner might check that you still own the token before finalizing the list.
If you fully registered, the only way your wallet wouldn’t be on the list of registered wallets is if the project removed it. PREMINT never deletes wallets from the list for any reason.
If you don’t know what wallet your Discord or Twitter are connected to, just go to https://premint.xyz/disconnect and you can force-disconnect them.
While creators are welcome to name their PREMINT projects whatever they like, we choose to use the term "allow list" or "access list" vs "whitelist." "Whitelist" could be considered exclusionary language, and the spirit of web3 is about inclusion.
