The Dojo Badge Drop: How to Mint Your Early-Bird Badge

Welcome to Dojo!

Ancient8 is proud to introduce Dojo, the first Web3 gaming launchpad for hosting NFT sales (IGOs) with a focus on the Solana ecosystem. These exclusive opportunities let users support the development of the best web3 games, gain early access to their communities, and share in their future success.

To celebrate the upcoming launch, Ancient8 invites our community to mint a Dojo Early-Bird Badge from a collection of 1,000 NFT badges!

Dojo Badges will offer holders a chance to join the whitelist for the first IGO (NFT sale) on Ancient8 Dojo and a share of the 7,000 USDC prize pool! The mint price is almost free at just 0.01 SOL.

Dojo Early-Bird Badge

To mint a Dojo badge and participate in the contest, users must first create their Ancient8 UID at ancient8.gg.

Dojo Drop Details

Everyone who successfully mints an Dojo Early-bird badge will automatically join the raffle for a chance to be whitelisted for the first IGO NFT Sale on Ancient8 Dojo. Participants will mint their badge from one of two pools: the Saint Giong Whitelist Pool, or the Community Pool for everyone else.

Let’s break down the difference:

Pool 1: Saint Giong Whitelist: This is an exclusive pool available only to holders of an Ancient8 Saint Giong NFT. All holders will receive 1 SPL token in their wallet ahead of the Drop which grants them access to the first-come-first-serve (FCFS) pool.

The wallet snapshot of Saint Giong NFT holders for the access to Saint Giong Whitelist Pool will be at 13:00 UTC September 24.
