Hey #mfers - did you mint the "end of sartoshi" NFT yesterday? Are you also wondering:

"Wait, did I just mint 20 identical tokens for 0.069eth each?"

"Wen second reveal?"

But I think there's a chance that there actually may be a "SECOND REVEAL" (thread)
If you look at the Mfers contract, it uses IPFS to point to the tokenURI. This is the right way, and shows that the creator cares about provenance.

Also this makes the NFT future proof since there is no 3rd party that hosts the files.
Compare that to the "end of sartoshi" contract.

The tokens are stored at …ng-pipeline-openedition.herokuapp.com/15947

which means, the files are stored on Sartoshi's heroku server currently.
The reasoning behind the people saying "give it up bro, this WAS the reveal, and all tokens are exactly the same, and there will be no second reveal" is that if Sartoshi just disappeared with the blog post, it wouldn't make sense for him to come back and do a "second reveal".
But if you think about it, if the whole point is to walk away from the community completely, why would he specifically host it on his heroku server instead of simply hosting on IPFS, which he already knows how to do, and is best for "completely walking away"?
I do think that whatever happens, if he really wanted to walk away, he will at some point switch out the heroku links to IPFS links. And when that happens, it may still be the same tokens, but also it could be when the actual "second reveal" happens.

OK let's walk through how this whole @TwitterBlue hexagon NFT system works.

Very few understand how it works underneath, which is where all the confusion comes from.
One would naturally assume that @TwitterBlue is running an Ethereum indexer in-house to fetch the NFTs from the blockchain.

But that is NOT the case.

They instead use Opensea's API.
This means if Opensea delists a collection, it not only does not exist on Opensea, but also does not exist on Twitter.

This is not even about censorship. This also means if Opensea goes down, none of your NFTs will be available on Twitter.

Attention pfp.factoria.app NFT holders:

I found out that Opensea has delisted the collection without notice. I've reached out to ask why but haven’t heard back yet

Even if they never respond, I do have a bulletproof solution regardless, ready to be deployed soon (thread)
First of all, if you ALREADY have your PFP NFT as your Twitter profile currently, it seems to be still working.

Just make sure to NOT switch it to another NFT until I release the solution.
Otherwise, I will wait a few more days to hear back from Opensea, just to make sure we can fix this together.

Then, if they don't respond, I have already started working on a solution to fix this without opensea.

I'll release this sometime next week.

Cell Open Beta starts today!

Cell is a new approach to building NFTs, that takes a VIRTUAL MACHINE approach, instead of hardcoding logic onto the contract, making it super efficient and easy to use. Check out the video.

Website: cell.computer
The source code has been open sourced and has been verified on Etherscan Rinkeby.

Etherscan verified contract: rinkeby.etherscan.io/address/0xcF26…
