Then, everything changed with this announcement from SVS’s lead developer woof:Ī friend of mine ( Andrew) sent me a text with this announcement in it and I was so excited to see it. Well today, the conversation about gas reached a fever pitch as the SVS Discord was buzzing with questions about how anyone without a boatload of ETH would have a chance to actually mint. Two days ago I wrote an article about the slick anti-both technology that Sneaky Vampires is deploying and while this will likely do an awesome job of thwarting those pesky bots, it doesn’t solve the gas problem.

One of the things that has really impressed me about Sneaky Vampires over the last week is their interest in doing everything they can to even the playing field and make this minting as fair as possible. Until today the most common answer I heard was, “well if you spend $10,000 in gas you might get one,” and that honestly might have been a low-end estimate give how much excitement there is for this project. Over the course of the last week Sneaky Vampire Syndicate has seen their Discord grow from a few thousand users to over 30,000 and with the launch one day away one question has been on everyone’s mind – how will anyone who isn’t an NFT whale going to be able to mint a vampire? What happens when you combine an all-star dev team with an artist from Bored Ape Yacht club and a cool concept like Vampires? Well, you end up with what I think it’s more than safe to say has been one of the most-anticipated NFT drop to-date.
