$QR AUCTION #59 COMPLETE ✅

Winner: @GSkrovina
Bid: 17M $QR ($47)
Winning Link: Warps
(see link in first reply)

Garrett (@GSkrovina) is the creator of @basedevo, $BASED, the head of crypto @Lazer_HQ, and just last night won the inaugural International @BrackyHQ Beer Pong Tournament in New York City. He is a general legend and represents the very best of @base.

ABOUT WARPS
- Warps is a @farcaster_xyz mini app built by @GSkrovina and @davidhurley87
- this is some real mini app alpha as Warps has not yet formally launched
- but you can try it right now in the mini app below (is this a leak?)
- when you open the mini app, you can claim 4 NFTs for free
- like really free, no platform fees or anything like that, just a fraction of a cent for gas
- if you can’t immediately see your 4 NFTs, close and re-open the mini app to refresh
- then select and combine two of them to create a new token
- the new token will have half as many warps and inherit colors from each parent
- you can continue minting warps in batches of 4 for 1 USDC each ($4 total)
- then you can continue combining any 2 NFTs with the same number of warps
- freshly minted warps NFTs include 20 warps in total
- when you combine two NFTs with 20 warps, they produce one NFT with 4
- when you combine two NFTs with 4 warps, they produce one NFT with 1
- so it takes 4 NFTs in total to combine your way down to a single warp NFT
- the current goal is to create a single warp NFT with the winning color #FF9900
- fun fact: #FF9900 is “Amazon” orange owned by shortcorey.eth in the @base_colors collection
- the first to combine their way to a #FF9900 warp gets 20% of the prize pool
- once that prize is claimed, a new winning color is randomly chosen
- the total prize pool is currently 115.16 USDC
- it appears that 100% of the mint fees are added straight to the prize pool

[$QR @qrcoindotfun]

slow weekend.

if no one bids on the QR auction in the next 90 minutes, auction #59 will go for less than $3.

in exchange for that $3, i will personally complete a comprehensive write-up on the winning link and bidder for the 59th day in a row, the winner will benefit from our distribution of that tweet, several hundred farcasters will get a notification about their winning, they will get their name and link featured on our winners page forever, their link will be featured on our home page for one day, the QR will of course redirect to their website for a day as well, and should we do anything in the future to retroactively benefit our winners (no promises), they would benefit from that as well.

pretty good value for $3 imo, but what's it worth to you?

when QR auctions go high, it shows demand for what we're doing and helps build the onchain attention machine.

when QR auctions go low, it's an opportunity for us to deliver value well above the winning bid amount.

[$QR @qrcoindotfun]

alright alright alright

listen up

if you are true $QR stan you might actually care about this otherwise probably can move on with your feed and we'll see you tomorrow

so here's the deal

we are going to wait to "settle" auction #54 (just ended) until around 12 hours from now, to keep the auctions ending within a 9am-9pm time window (EST), so that we can continue to crank tweets to hype auctions in order to continue bootstrapping this onchain attention machine that is the QR coin (dot fun)

for those who are curious

our very first auction ended in the morning (9 or 9:30, we can't remember, you can check the chain)

but the end has since been pushed back more than 12 hours over the course of our first 54 auctions as a result of BIDDING WARS which create OVERTIMES because any bid within the final 5 minutes resets the clock to 5

oOooOoo wowowow

so as an elegant solution to the problem of "we don't want to constantly be changing our sleep schedule to sync with the ever-changing timing of QR auctions" we will wait to settle it til the morning every few fortnights or so on an as needed basis

don't worry, while it is not completely determining our sleep schedules, it is already messing up our workout regimens, working routines, and social lives

the sacrifices we make in service of the $QR
