📣📣📣 Attention @thenowpass holders!
To commemorate @bryanbrinkman’s sold-out “Bloom” drop on @LGArtLab, we’re giving away 2 of the 100 editions to our Now Pass community 🌼
Head to our Discord or Telegram for details!
We have a special thing coming SOON. Guaranteed 12/25 delivery.
RT for awareness much 🙏🏾
Our hope is that people like it and this becomes a tradition for us to celebrate “Super Fandom” across all major sports when each champion is crowned for decades to come.
- Personally I love it.
- The team loves it.
- And yes, Bo loves it too (went over card art with him this morning and he was pumped).
Two primary purchase options:
1) More “Approachable” Version (but admittedly not “cheap”): has a very short limited TIME print window for “under $100”. 10 hits in team color. (still random slots and rares/secret rares - but gloss treatment).
2) An ultra premium limited TIME small batch FOIL version: with all of the exclusive World Champions cards foiled and the chance to hit the “LOGOFOIL 1/1” chasers and other foil rares/secret rares. For these even the BOX is a foiled work of absolute multi layered art.
It’s not a foil print onto the box. Literally it’s got a FULL foil art sleeve around it like a giant card - big difference - I’ve never seen it done - if anyone has…please share.
I think these foil versions will be very hard for most fans to tear open…it will look so nice on a super fan’s shelf sealed up nice and tight. Price on this foil one around two-fiddy ish give or take - under 3 bills for sure).
Both are aimed at:
- LA super fans AND/OR those who need to Christmas shop for one (not necessarily “card” people.
- Collectors and players who love all things BoBA and/or they might want to slot the big LOGO hits into their APEX deck.
* Before it’s asked**…no Miles option on these but have your bags packed on that front. Remember I said in BP townhall that the next Miles only Exclusive will drop WITHOUT WARNING (although - maybe this is me giving a warning 🤔)
** Also before it’s asked: Yes. Expect a Geek discount option and guaranteed first access. Probably only on the Foil version there. Because of our manufacturing process for small batch (and specifically not having the volume to use offset printing) the margin in the base version is not nearly what most might guess. Have a little more room to knock some off for Geeks in the foil.
Thoughts/feedback?? (aside from us all wishing [MY TEAM] had won it all 😂).
Love to hear what people might think first pass here. Good/bad/ugly. Im curious.
**Fwiw - I totally get if you are a Yanks super fan or person that hates all things LA you prob won’t be a buyer but maybe try to imagine if it WAS your team (or if you just didn’t actually hate all things blue).**
Lately @TheVeeList, its all about Ordinals & Runes.

The auction for securing your Character Proofs into the Wonders of the First CCG is now LIVE! These tokens allow you to lock one of your applicable character proofs into the CCG collection.
Bid NOW! ➡️ https://t.co/GsAMHdQISK
I’m gonna say the quiet part out loud. It’s time.
You WILL NOT find a better or more SUSTAINABLE catalyst narrative for an NFT collection.
5,000 Wonders of The First characters exist as the ONLY collection created in Ethereum’s FIRST BLOCK on proof-of-stake (provenance established immediately after the merge in the POS Genesis Block).
These amazing Characters establish our universe and IP catalog.
The first physical CCG set Kickstarts in a few weeks. (CCG = Collectible Card Game - think Magic the Gathering or Pokemen).
Our first physical set (Existence) will feature 85% ish “already community owned” Characters.
The rest of the Characters?
Our CCG box ripping “normie” friends will be chasing redeemable hits to score their own characters (by claiming the Character’s NFT in the same Character Proof collection).
Character Proofs can be had on OS for under $300 right now. 🤯
So imagine if Pokemon dropped an NFT that established which community member had commercial IP rights to Pikachu. Rights they could sell at any time. Thats our IP model in a nutshell.
We have community members building comics, physical products and even an ambitious group doing a video game with their Wonders alongside us.
But. You don’t have to build anything. You can just hold your Character Proofs and chill (with a deep sense of pride knowing those rights are yours should you want to use or transfer them).
Our community claimed these characters for free by owning @LostMinersETH. As all this was built during the bear…very few even know about this right now. I promise that will change soon. But we won’t be advertising to web 3 degens or paying the influencoors to pump our bags.
We will be taking this CCG to normal human beings that love fantasy lore, CCG gaming and nerd culture to seek authentic, valid, and sustainable demand. (Nerd said affectionately as a proud one myself).
Once the CCG drops, every normie pack ripper will know these Character Proofs exist and they will be told that if they don’t find one in their packs (a rare hit) they can simply turn to secondary market to find ones they vibe with (we will gladly hold their hand and white glove concierge their acquisitions if need be).
In a world where single collectible cards sell for thousands…the idea of owning a Character from a franchise they enjoy (for a few hundred bucks) should be quite an interesting value proposition if they fall in love with their cards, the game and the Wonders universe.
Yes. I’m bull posting. People here say they want teams to build cool shit. Well…we’ve invested millions and countless hours of swear and hustle to build some cool fucking shit.
The game is getting great feedback in play tests. Our lead game designer has 25 years experience (including a decade making Magic and Pokemon sets). His team has CCG natives and competitive players that are like top 2% CCG ranked.
We are AI/tech native (again we literally tokenized the characters with intentionality as indisputable first POS collection - created and minted in POS Genesis Block. No part of the process touched mining. And we brought 5000 broad and diverse characters to life in 12 months time. It took Magic the Gathering about 10+ years to reach 5k characters.
Interested? LFG. Join us.
We gather in discord. I won’t link in an effort not to crush this post’s reach but you can remove the spaces below.

The @WondersOTF universe reveals itself in 4 days!
Introducing into Existence: Solfera Orbital, a realm forged from sun, fire, and heat.
Combining "sol," or "sun" in Latin, and "fera," derived from "fervent" or "fiery," Solfera inhabitants must endure the intense heat and volcanic nature of this Orbital.
A lot new of new @blokpax collectors have joined our ranks in the past 3 weeks. I won’t share exact numbers (for various reasons) but it’s enough to (very) materially impact our collector base if they fully onboard as long-term collectors.
These are 99% web 2 users that don’t have a mm wallet. They are legit new blood. Most are 30-50 year old IRL collectors (the core of our acquisition ad targeting) trying a digital product for the first time. They have discretionary income and they are native to the mindset of collecting and forming a long-term thesis.
That said. They don’t use Discord. They also aren’t on CX (many aren’t on X at all) so one of the biggest challenges we are facing is meeting them where they are and fully onboarding them INTO the community. Not as a customer. As a member of something special.
Meaning. We now need to help them meet other Blokpaxers so they can truly understand how special things are in this ecosystem and why they should lean in fully.
Sooo. With that in mind we have cooked up something *experimental* that I’m excited to test. I won’t fully spill the beans but I want the existing community and our OGs to plan to attend (trust me - you will want to participate - we are gonna invest some money into seeing how it works).
So here are some PRELIMINARY details I can share (fresh off the planning press today).
- We are targeting next Thur 10/12 for the first one of these “events”. Looking at 8pm EDT as go time. Subject to change. We have work to do. But I want you to have time to plan.
- It will be @CollectHTH focused but Blokpax themed.
- It will be an interactive live stream DIGITAL COLLECTING ADVENTURE.
- We are allocating marketing budget to this effort and it will award meaningful value to the Blokpax community.
- You must attend to access any of the value we will have available. You don’t have to do much…but you do have to be in the live stream chat to get anything cool.
- You do NOT have to be an existing Blokpax collector to attend. But you will need a Blokpax User ID in good standing to receive anything of value (BP accounts are free fwiw if you are new here).
So. Mark your calendars now. We probably won’t have much more to share about it until next week. Once we fully reveal the plans I want it to happen fairly quickly…So we might wait until 24-48 hours prior and then push it hard until it begins.
ONE LITTLE HINT: What would a collector themed mash up of Sunday Red Zone and the Around the Horn show from ESPN look like if it was also packed full of free rewards for viewers? ? 🤔
RTs for awareness so Blokpaxers can mark their calendar are much appreciated. 🙏🏾
Let’s. Go.
PS - Yes. We are hiring. I have a backlog of DMs right now from my tweet yesterday (after the @proof_xyz RIF announcment) but I will read and reply to anyone that reached out. Please just give me some time there. Legit might take me a few days cause I have to review them in batches so I can give them each the attention they deserve. That tweet casted a net far beyond just the Proof layoffs it seems…exciting stuff really. The energy and interest in web 3 careers is more concentrated in the bear but it’s still there at a high intensity among the faithful with a long-term vision for what digital ownership can become. Like I said. Let’s build.
