WEN Spaceships, WHERE Spaceships 🚀🚀🚀

Spaceships are ALMOST here and we want to share some of the information with you!!!!

During the beginning of this program, there will be a total of five (5) different Spaceships that all players can craft & assemble! Additionally, there will be two (2) more limited-edition Spaceships: one claimable by INU holders, and the other claimable by NEKO holders!

Want a sneak peek of how these Spaceships will look? Keep reading, and stay tuned to our Discord! We will be releasing a new spaceship design under the #community-news channel periodically.

Spaceships Overview

CLAIMING (Loot Box System)

Each of the different Spaceship types will have five (5) parts, each with six (6) different color schemes, and NFT holders can acquire these via our Loot Box System. This system will provide our NFT holders with the chance to acquire parts of 5 Different Rarity Levels that alter the looks and affect the in-game uses of the Spaceships!

Spaceship Part Rarities

• Legendary — 5% loot chance
• Epic — 12% loot chance
• Rare — 18% loot chance
• Uncommon — 25% loot chance
• Common — 40% loot chance

Have you acquired 5 legendary parts of the same type? Congratulations! You can now assemble a full-set legendary spaceship.

NFT Holders only!

This feature will only be available to NFT holders. Each week, there will be a different Spaceship Loot Box that can be claimed, for a limited period of time.

You can claim one Loot box per each Genesis Sipher NFT you hold. Have 30 NFTs? You can acquire 30 Loot boxes in a single week!

As promised, our Genesis INU NFT Holders will benefit more than Genesis NEKO NFT Holders during the Spaceships Loot box claiming period.

SCRAP PARTS (Burning)

Holding too many common parts? No problem. We will be implementing a ‘Scrapping’ mechanism in which you can combine a certain amount of parts with the same rarity, to acquire another Spaceship part of a HIGHER rarity!

The full details of this SCRAP (BURN) mechanism will be revealed closer to launch 😊

Wait a minute! WHAT ABOUT GAS?

Yes, an issue for all NFT enthusiasts. We will be tackling this with a solution that mixes both on-chain & off-chain features. Most interactions with the Spaceship loot (i.e. scrapping, assembling, or disassembling Spaceships) will be performed off-chain, but NFT holders can mint their parts into NFTs within the POLYGON Network (Gas-efficient L2 solution). By minting the part into an NFT, you can trade your Spaceship parts via OpenSea, or transfer to other wallets the same way you do with your INUs or NEKOs!

Okay, all of this is cool, but WEN?!

The estimated launch date of the Spaceship Loot program will be EARLY MARCH! We will reveal more in-depth details and more Spaceship designs and colors over on Discord before launch!

I have more questions!

Please send us all your questions within the #spaceship-questions channel within the Discord!

Disclaimer — Do take note there can be tweaks and changes to any of the above mechanics mentioned ensuring a smooth and quality launch!

Collabs and Engagement

Do you really like another project and think it would be great for them to collaborate with SIPHER? SURE! Tell us why you think the project would be good for us to work with. Input your collab ideas in the #collab-ideas channel. Please read the criteria below before you provide recommendations!

• The project has been in the space for some time and has made some level of progression towards roadmap/game
• Follower count. This is not necessarily the best indicator of a good project, but a project with only 1,000 followers on Twitter might be too new to engage
• Projects that could expand the utility benefits of SIPHER (even if it’s a small project)
• Networking and building strong influencer connections

Also, we look forward to building more engagement activities over on Discord. Please do look out for the Game Development Updates coming up in early February.

We will also be hosting AMAs with key appointment holders of different departments in SIPHER to answer some of the burning questions our members might have!
