Just want to make a shoutout here that Big Foot Mafia Club NFTs are going live on June 30. By live, it means people can mint them. However, before you can mint them, you have to have be included in the "Whitelist."
How to get whitelisted?
It's really easy how to be included in the whitelist. Unlike other projects where you have to join their discord spaces and then will be required to get a minimum XPs from interactions on their discord spaces, here it's different. You'll just need one of the following NFTs on your Tezos wallet, and you are in:
❤️ Ottez
❤️ Batbits
❤️ Tzdropz
❤️ TzRaffles
❤️ Tezos Degen Club
❤️ Degen Foxes
❤️ SadPythons
Having any of those NFTs means you have an automatic WL. However, as we can see, some are more expensive than others, the cheapest to have an auto whitelist then is to buy a Batbit NFT, which currently go for less than 1 XTZ.
So what is BFMC?
Big Foot Mafia Club is basically a PFP project. In short, it is a collectible NFT. You can say it's similar to CryptoPunks, Bored Apes Yacht Club and Tezzards. Mostly, aside from being just collectibles, Crypto Punks, BAYC and Tezzards are really just good for using as profile pics to brag that you have a high value collectible NFT.
Big Foot Mafia Club though is promising, but not guaranteeing to have another utility aside from being a cute pfp project. Devs expressed willingness to give more utility to the project depending on how much sales are generated. For now, it's just a basic pfp project, but the devs behind it, when collectors, but they want to call them "campers" rather than collectors, increase over time, probably a game will be in the works.
Right now, like they came up with a series of mini stories to hype up the project. These stories are broken down in chapters. So far Chapter 9 was the latest release. The check out the chapters, you can click here: https://www.bigfootmafiaclub.com/blog
The devs of this project also said via announcement from their discord space that they have a lot of plans for the community. They are committed to make BFMC one of the most active and fun communities, so I'm guessing probably a lot of giveaways and cool stuff are going to happen for BFMC holders. If you're unsure, you can always check out the discord space of BFMC and join https://discord.gg/p7qV835f to see if it tickles your fancy. If not, you can always leave their server.
What Will Happen on and Before June 30th?
Assuming you want to mint one, just make sure to have a Batbit NFT before June 29th. They probably will have the snapshot on the 29th.
Mint price is only 4 XTZ. As the dev said, that's just a Big Mac. Anyone can mint up to 10 per wallet. I would recommend Kukai wallet though, easy to set up and designed for holding Tezos NFTs.
Parting Words
Before I give my opinion on this, I would like to show you some of the creative pieces released as samples of how the NFTs are gonna look like.
I have to say Freddie Bigfootycury and Hell Bigfootboy kind of tickled my funny bones. I guess I'll sacrifice two or three Big Macs to get ahold of these bad bigfoot boys.
So from an audience perspective, I would say I am impressed by the level of artwork. I don't judge artworks now based on my personal preference though because as you know who would have thought CryptoPunks would sell, and they looked rather plain back then, but now they look rich to me(ahaha). So I guess if I had an opportunity to get one CryptoPunk back then, probably I would have passed on it cause I would have said, "Nah, I'd rather have a Big Mac than get that." Now, I would have been cursing myself to death knowing how much CryptoPunks are valued now.
Anyway, we don't know how the public really will value things because it's always a subjective matter. For me, I just don't like to cry in the future and say to myself, "If only I sacrificed some Big Macs..." Plus I dig the artwork, and the devs are promising (but not guaranteeing) more exciting stuff to come for owning Bigfoot NFTs. For me, that is enough. Probably I'll buy 3, one for personal collection, one for selling in case it rockets, and one for my son.
My honest opinion, this will sell out. Markets are not really looking so attractive to get in, but the NFT markets are still somehow thriving and some projects are selling out still.
Just a bit of recap:
Mint Day: June 30, 2022
Mint price: 4 XTZ
Public sale price: 7 XTZ
