t00ns ip is 100% ai
we said it from the start, we keep saying it t0day
it 2026. if yall dont use ai, u gonna be left behind. wen u leverage the power of ai, ur output just grows 234972390%
the plan was simple:
- create an ip
- make it sticky and fun
- give dem t00ls to the community to iterate on it (ai production pipeline, t00ns character sheet, tutorials and skills)
right now, no other upcoming mint has that much organic content which is genuinely fun and g00d
in the last 2 weeks, we sp0tted around 10 br0s making great vide0s. we all gave dem gtd and now dem keep c00kin
t00ns ip is fun enough that dem br0s keep producin content
we also wanted to build horizontally. t00ns is a very sm0l team (team reveal in the next 7 days)
that why we give a chance to new br0s to join the adventure
t00ns still sm0l, but the ip is big. sum of the biggest brands started by selling clothes in the subway. t00ns is taking the same path: start sm0l and gr0w massive
just do the test. show sum memes or t00ns videos to normies. vibe check is g00d. that means we crossed the rubicon. there is now web3 or web2 or bullshytt. there are only vibes
to answer the bro @zartash, t00ns is bigger than internet magic jpegs. now we need to prove the wurk even m0ar
just be t00ns about
gt0000000000ns br0s
we gon be true here and tell u, we are overwhelmed with the am0unt of d0pe content that has been pr0duced by the c0mmunity. genuinely g00d shyt
it would be a lie to say we planned for this. sure we worked a l0ng time on the final ip, and br0s will remember dem different designs. it g00d now, but imaginin it would be fl00d the timeline like that, this crazy
couple updates for u:
- tg has 500 members, we might go t0 555 cause we still wanna invite sum br0s
- we keep wurkin on the ip. gifs, merch, and p0ssible content on dem other platf0rms
- we kn0w the wurd ip is thr0wn away so easily in crypt0, but t00ns is a fresh ip and a fun one to experiment with. we wanna push it hard and bring it to n0rmies
- mint probably n0t in june. we wanna pr0ve our wurth bef0re things get m0vin
- if u not convinced about t00ns, just sh0w dem memes and character to n0rmies. if dem fuck with it, we already w0n............
many pr0jects try to engineer culture, we did it successfully. that 384792389% true
stay t00ned
the br0 @opzyadex got a fair point today
yall kn0w we handpick who we give an entry to the telegram. and yh, its not exact science. but at least, we gave a fair chance to dem sm0l accounts (and we still do), even before starting c0llabs. in a space that keeps saying cms/collabs are c00ked, we put the community first
few weeks back, it was very easy to get in, because the n0ise around us was t00 small and we wanted to reward the br0s that pushed the hardest
but pushin the hardest dont mean p0stin chatgpt written content, visuals that are sl0p, and it very hard for us to see who a bot or not t00. postin everyday dont mean its quality
this week sum g00d bros got into it, even with just 1 post. cause they made crazy content for dem t00ns, and for that we are very grateful (@max_iiiiiiii with sum blender work, @timikareem with d0pe video, @heritage2x cause he a pleb and plebs deserve l0v, @BrielleOnchain with brainr0t content)
feel free to check dem numbers account: its fckin low. but dem pushed with g00d content, and for that dem deserve to be in
and yh, we rejected many drawings. but cmon guys, we the future of finance lma000, not the future of kindergarten
sum br0s will be left overs. sum br0s will feel it unfair, but we try to give a chance to every0ne
even sum big accounts are still waiting for an entry to the tg
in the end,
just be t00ns about it
yall t00ns visuals are c00ked af, so we made a guide to follow 100%. plz f0ll0w or u get rekt
tld;dr: chatgpt for prompt generation (with keywords) + gemini for image generation
โป step 1: use chatgpt (always chatgpt) for prompts. it free, it efficient
โ put our pinned p0st image as reference (always mfers)
โ https://t.co/VlRMngXFjQ for the visual reference (always needed)
โ ask the br0 chatgpt to use dem keywords for the pr0mpt (mandatory): rough handmade clay, uneven lumpy clay terrain, rough air-dry clay, visible fingerprints
tool marks, handmade clay, matte finish, no gloss
stop motion animation diorama, blue clay character
gold grills, star nose, droopy asymmetric eyes
stitch line, small black belly creature, tiny stubby arms and legs
โ get the pr0mpt
โป step 2: use gemini (free version), run a couple iterations with the prompt from chatgpt + the reference from our pinned p0st
โป step 3: make sth c00l. a scene. add sum of ur ideas
โป step 4: rem0ve the gemini watermark in photoshop
โ lasso t00l
โ circle the watermark
โ content aware fill
โ export to png
โ p0st on x
we gave u all dem t00ls. dont make sl0p no moar or u get on blacklist
yall ask for female t00ns but u dunn0 no women in crypto fr. lil update on dem t00ns anyway:
โข we wurkin on the c0llection super hard. we g0t a new fren to assist, sumeone known, expect moar sneak peaks very s00n
โข no moar entries to the tg from public links this month. we gon check all dem br0s in dem dms and their contributi0ns, so we gon handpick moar of dem br0s on the timeline and send dms privately (plz dont spam if u just made a p0st tw0 days ago and think this is it)
โข we workin on c0llectibles, first sneak peaks also incomin, think key chains. again, who would buy, shipping c0sts, yada yada. but we want to do it bef0re the c0llection dr0ps
โข plz st0p with makin ur pfp int0 clay and callin it t00ns, this ree tarded af. respect++++++++ on the t00ns ip, we have a vibe, a character, a universe
โข art c0ntest incomin. we use ai a lot, so we gon help u t00 on this with prompts, techniques and shyyyt. but cm0n, t00 many br0s produce pure slop, it not so hard to get g00d results
โข collabs still not opened, june most pr0bably
โข supply / mp still tba.......trinity shyt???
just be t00ns about it
@Bigdawgg69 yhhhh br0 is finally a br0
dem stats in the tg:
- 377 br0s in the tg
- 180 br0s have gtd
- 1 bro got fcfs cause he kept askin for a fr33 mint wen we said fr0m the start it's a paid mint
all dem br0s in the tg kn0w each other, cult is gettin f0rmed
m0nths of research after rebrandin past 0ctober (previous character)
learn ai shyt, pay for generations, rew0rk fuckin g00d to get final texture
lo0ads of disagreements and talk with the team to hav the final ip
iteration on iterati0ns to get the final t00ns
note that the fat t00ns might not be in the collection, or maybe it will, will get extra wurk
we don't do it for the money, still paid mint, but we hav invested way moar time than m0st collections creatin an x and starting c0llabs right away
our daily grind means 0rganic community, which means moar leverage in the nft space. k0ls understand that, once we start c0llabs, no w0rries to make t00ns a bluechip in the eco
we wurked on collectibles, contacted retailers, sum interesting in makin it happen irl and sellin, need to think about flywheel for holders
need to think about collection mechanics, moar to come, we won't over promise, we ll always deliver before mint and not bullshyt promises post mint
no other project is pushin as hard as us, replies, dms communication, kno0wing our holders
370 members in tg, we could launch discord n0w and go full social grindin but we decide not t00
u free to wurk on dem discord filled with 90723423 br0s fightin for a few wl. we do reverse shyt and it wurks
we 0gs in the space, if t00ns wurk. not luck, simply that we been here for a few cycles
if we take time, simply we already made it in terms of crypto, that why we don't need to rush and cash grab
just be t00ns about it
updates t0morrow, t00ns team been busy with g00d shyt for t00ns
we kn0w dem br0s keep askin
- wen mint
- wen tg
- wen collabs
- wen rug
๐ฟ๐ฟ๐ฟ๐ฟ๐ฟ๐ฟ๐ฟ
br0s, we gon keep clear on that
= team made of ogs, we gon mint wen we 3847283947% available for t00ns
= we mint wen we deliver moar about the l0re
= we c0llab wen we push for real
= @EnzioSantos explained t0day (g00d post ftw), we gr0w sl0w but full internet shyt, organic, no ster0ids but big dick energy nonetheless
= we keep tg sm0l for now, dat way br0s can get their wl little by little, and br0s bec0me family
so............just be t00ns about it
t00ns teacher back on duty. let us explain sum things about dem t00ns
โ the reason yall fuck with t00ns art is simple: it l00ks similar to many other masc0ts, many inspiration n yet, it's original enough to be different.
think minions, donkey kong, katamara damacy, domo, susuwatari from spirited away....dem all part of our ip and character. not a derivative, not a copy pasta
โ another misconception: c0llabs didn't start for a reason. we don't want to depend on kols to gr0w and give away t00 much of our negotiation power. it doesn't mean we don't like k0ls, sum are respect++++++++, we just want to build the cult first.
it s harder at first, but ten times moar rewarding. t00ns telegram has 250 br0s, we go slow cause we want the early br0s to be family, cult like, and we explain dem rules t00: don't fck with each 0ther, be c00l, just be t00ns about it
โ mint price is not free. repeat here. mint price is n0t free. u get it yet? mint price + supply = tba but dem elastic... the sm0ller the supply, the bigger the mint price. the bigger the supply, the cheaper the mint price
โ on dat n0te, we thinkin on ways to enrich the ip experience. we l0v the masc0t, we c00kin behind the scenes. thinkin t00ns pilot episode, irl c0llectibles, possible retailers that we kn0w...
for now: nothin nothin nothin. but if we do deez things, we won't do it post mint. we want to deliver first so u can judge the wurk, and decide if u want to be part of the t00ns journey.
many projects overpromise before mint and never deliver after. we want to do the contrary: deliver first, mint after
โ wut coming next is simply keep building the c0mmunity, future c0llabs and brand development. we very excited to hear ur feedback about that, ideas and critics
โ if u want to contribute, go for it. ai is everywhere n0w, best br0s in the ecosystem didn't wait for the green light. they just did things and g0t sum jobs or benefits in sum ways in web3, u can do t00. we have a full team, but be original and u might get n0ticed
anyway. just be t00ns about it. after all, these are just internet magic jpegs
