Hello Voxel interested Hivians!
Today is the day we finally introduce the first official demo of Eden Arise as well as our Early Bird Sale, which will include an additional surprise for one single Hivian!
Let us get started!
Early Bird Sale
For sure we are starting a sale for our early birds since you most likely are the first ones to populate this world and more important - you are already a part of this community.
Before we hereby announced this sale, we had 1 Person bravely investing into the development upfront, 
Lets get to the Numbers:
The discounts on the tokens we placed on sale or we will place on sale (additional ARISE tokens) are looking as following:

EDEN Tokenomics Additional Information
In terms of EDEN, we left out an important information in terms of what will happen when we reached 40,000,000 to 42,000,000 tokens available on the market.
We decided to potentially have x10 reserves on EDEN since it is an important utility token for the game and we are not allowed to run out of it at any point of time in terms of availability.
Depending on the situation, especially in terms of amount of players, we will print another 100,000,000 tokens we will exclusively offer via in-game function. Players will be able to buy a maximum of 500 EDEN this way which are UNTRADABLE! We will add the amount to the Account and then will burn those tokens.
This way we have a potential reserve to cover all basic in-game functions like trading or claiming land, operating workers and more for 800,000+ players if we calculate this using every possibly available token!
This way it is guaranteed, that those 40,000,000 to max. 42,000,000 on the market are the only ones ever available here.
No additional token will ever enter the market and since 1500 EDEN is max cap to gain special rewards and some special functions require players holding above 500 EDEN, those available on the market will most likely be very interesting in a future scenario.
We will add this to the former post about tokenomics as well.
Eden Arise Demo Version
Compared to the version we described in our previous post, we implemented some further improvements like bedrock or updated the vegetation. Water and underwater is still on 
We did not implement any tools into the game so far, because of this, the blocks durability is of course not like we intend it to be with our first release version (Foundation), but you will feel the difference.
The development onto this stage took
