Key Points

 * The CyberKongz are coming to Ronin. To participate in the Genkai mint on
   Mavis Market, visit this link on July 27th at 12 pm EST. There will be 3,000
   Genkai for sale on Ronin at 0.25 ETH or an equivalent amount of RON. Make
   sure your Ronin wallet is loaded with WETH & RON!

 * We’re celebrating the CyberKongz Genkai mint on Ronin with the Ronin x Genkai
   Gacha Quest brought to you by Moku. More info coming soon.

 * This is the beginning of a long term union that will include the migration of
   CyberKongz’s Play & Kollect experience from Polygon to Ronin and a
   Genkai-game powered by Ronin.

Today, we welcome the CyberKongz to Ronin in a homecoming celebration that will
be remembered for years to come. On July 27th at 12 pm EST, the CyberKongz will
host a public mint of their Genkai collection through Ronin’s Mavis Market. This
is the first-ever NFT mint on Ronin and we’re honored to welcome these new
allies to our digital nation. There’s a lot to cover, so buckle up and let’s dig
in!

Visit Mavis Market

MINT OVERVIEW


The mint will take place through the Mavis Market (link) at 12 PM EST on July
27th. There will be a total of 20,000 Genkai NFTs available: 16,000 on Ethereum
and 3,000 on Ronin. All Genkai traits will be revealed within two weeks after
the mint is over.



There’s a special benefit for the Genkai on Ronin: exclusive traits inspired by
samurai aesthetics and Axie traits! In the future, Genkai trait upgrading will
happen on Ronin. Additionally, CyberKongz will be working with Ronin to develop
a game featuring Genkai. More details will be shared on this game over time, as
development progresses. If you don’t have a Ronin wallet yet, check out this
guide to get started. Otherwise, set an alarm or a calendar reminder by clicking
the button below:

Visit Mavis Market

Note that 939 of the Ronin Genkai NFTs will be gifted to Mystic Axie holders,
and 7,000 of the Ethereum Genkai will be airdropped to current CyberKongz
holders. These airdrops will be subject to a lock period of 180 days. The Mystic
Axie snapshot was taken on July 24th at 1pm UTC.

We’re also celebrating the CyberKongz Genkai mint on Ronin with the Ronin x
Genkai Gacha Quest. Anyone, anywhere will have the chance to win prizes
including FREE Genkai NFTs, Japanese axies, RON tokens, and more. You’ll be able
to complete social quests by connecting your wallet and social accounts to earn
points, which you can redeem for Gacha rolls and many chances to win. This is a
great way for Lunacians to participate in this moment whether they mint a Genkai
NFT or not. More info coming soon! 




WHAT THIS MEANS FOR RONIN


The Genkai mint represents Ronin opening our borders to Web3-native communities
beyond Axie Infinity. Today, the entire NFT space has their eyes on us. We want
to use this moment to drive home three key points:

 1. Ronin is the best place to launch gaming-centric NFT collections of all
    kinds.

 2. On the Mavis Market, we have a protocol enforced royalty because our
    validator set does not allow the deployment of NFT marketplaces that would
    create a race to the bottom for royalties, something we’ve seen to be so
    dangerous for creator sustainability on other chains.

 3. If you’re a RON holder, the Genkai mint is an opportunity to expand Ronin’s
    network effect and increase the utility of the RON token.

New to Ronin? Check out this support article to help you set up a Ronin wallet,
connect to Mavis Market, and mint a Genkai NFT.

Another exciting aspect of this union is that CyberKongz will be migrating Play
& Kollect, their on-chain gaming experience for VX Kongz, from Polygon to Ronin.
At current network conditions, players are projected to experience 10x cheaper
transactions due to this migration.

If you’re interested in launching a project on Ronin, get in touch with our team
here.


CyberKongz is more than a PFP community: they’re a visionary band of
missionaries who’ve innovated with on-chain gaming and share DNA with Axie
Infinity


WHO ARE THE CYBERKONGZ?


The year was 2021, and Ronin was less than a month old. Most of the world had
never even heard of NFTs, but a bull run of epic proportions was bubbling
beneath the surface. One day, on March 3rd, the artist Myoo minted the initial
collection of Genesis CyberKongz and they found homes in the wallets of many
early NFT adopters. This was the beginning of a powerful community that would go
on to influence our industry for years to come.

Over the following months, the CyberKongz would introduce and popularize
innovative NFT on-chain and cultural mechanics including:

 * The earliest popular example of NFT staking through Genesis Kongz & $BANANA,
   with a breeding mechanic where Genesis Kongz could breed Baby Kongz using
   $BANANA tokens

 * “They introduced ERC721x, a smart contract developed to enable the
   convenience of using a hot wallet, while having the security of a cold
   wallet.” - Wale 

 * The first holder’s alpha group “Wall Street Kongz”

 * An on-chain game called Play & Kollect, an on-chain idle adventure game with
   tokens and NFTs as rewards— this experience will be migrated from Polygon to
   Ronin as gas costs for players are projected to be 10x less expensive

By October of 2021, the CyberKongz set a world record for the highest floor
price of an NFT collection: 210 ETH! In many ways, they paved the way for other
notable projects and continue to push the boundaries of blockchain technology
today. We encourage you to learn more about the CyberKongz on their website at
the link below:

CyberKongz dev OwlOfMoistness meets Axie and Ronin founder Jihoz in the Axie
Discord, August 2018.


OUR SHARED HISTORY


This is the first time our two communities are coming together, but it’s also
the beginning of a powerful partnership rooted in a shared DNA. In 2018, the
Axie founders met in the CryptoKitties Discord server. The energy was electric,
ideas were flowing fast, and CyberKongz dev @OwlOfMoistness was right there in
the trenches.


CyberKongz dev @OwlOfMoistness

OWL


On August 6th, 2018, Owl joined the Axie Discord. He would go on to build
Discord bots in our server and onboard many of our earliest community members.
Check out this community spotlight about Owl from 2020.


CyberKongz Council Member @Coco__Bear

COCO


@Coco__Bear was another Kong who shaped Axie’s destiny. In fact, Axie would
likely not exist without Coco. He funded most of the entire Origins sale by
buying half of the supply, and has since become a Ronin validator. He even owns
the Agamogenesis axie Hauteclere, which we use as our basketball team Trilogy’s
logo!


CyberKongz Council Member Clumsier

CLUMSIER


Clumsier used to breed axies to give to other communities, facilitating the
first large-scale user acquisition campaign in NFTs. Free-to-own NFTs all the
way back in 2018. Together with Coco, Clumsier laid the foundation for the Axie
Builder’s Program by building Axie Sushi in 2019.

Today, we’re proud to count the CyberKongz among our oldest allies, and we’re
thrilled to add one more strand of shared DNA: 

GENKAI.


Fun fact: CyberKongz council members @Coco__Bear and Clumsier helped Sky Mavis
build Axie Sushi in 2019. Today, Coco and Owl help secure the Ronin network as
validators. We’ve been building together for years now.


FINAL THOUGHTS


We’re thrilled to welcome Genkai onto Ronin, and to celebrate this special
moment with one of our oldest allies. On July 27th, mint a Genkai and bring our
two sister communities together. 

This is also an experiment where we are leaning in towards our web3 roots. We’ve
heard the community clamoring for more web3 native brands and communities on
Ronin— we think CyberKongz are the perfect fit for our first foray in this
direction. 

This is just the beginning… a Kongish beginning.
