The Bling Koala Fashion Klub

Our story so far...

Follow our adventure navigating the treacherous waters of Web2, Web3 and NFT marketing...

  • Inception

    Sleepless night spent thinking about a gamified NFT minting experience.

  • Web2+Web3 Development

    First UI coded. Basic art produced, very crappy. Domain name + ENS registration. Started working on Ethereum smart contract development.

  • Web3 Development

    First player account smart contract deployed on the Ropsten testnet! Yay!

  • Web2+Web3 Development

    UI is functional. Revision 2 of our smart contract now integrates ERC721 token minting capability! Our first token is minted that night!

  • Web2 Development

    Rework server side code to add some cyber resilience.

  • Web2 Development

    Revision 4 smart contract deployement with royalties capabilities. Code optimization to reduce deployement gas fees.

  • Web2 Development

    Live testing online!

  • Web2 Development

    Dashboard & analytics server side and front-end development.

  • Web3 Development

    Dual chain Mainnet/Ropsten testnet support added.

  • Web3 Development

    Latest installment of our smart contract. Added metadata support and tested it on Rarible.

  • Web2 Development

    We are now working on the NFT art itself. ETA mid April!

  • Web2 Development

    Mobile version now looks good!

  • Web2 Development

    Art is slowly progressing. Added a few sound effects! Twitter publicity campaign started, 100 followers reached! 1M more to go!

  • Web2 Development

    Art phase 1 is is now ready and integrated. Added some features and reduce minting price (we're nice like that).

  • Web3 Development

    Rewrote IPFS storage and optimized picture size. Contract deployed on the Rinkeby testnet and tested out on Open Sea.

  • Web2 Development

    We are now live on Ropsten and RInkeby testnets! Come have fun at https://testnet.krappykoalas.io!
    Don't forget to follow us on twitter for more announcements!

  • Web2 Development

    We corrected a few bugs in QA, nothing deployed to production until launch. Also updated some of our art to make our Koalas even more fashionable!

  • Web2 Development

    With Ethereum gas prices fluctuating greatly, we modified our gas policy and made it self-adjusting based on current gas price. We will cover 0.01ETH of mint gas cost, if minting costs more than that, the user will be charged for the extra gas. This should trigger when gas hits about 50GWei.

  • Web3 Development

    We rewrote a large portion of our contract code to include a "marketing" account which would get automatically paid when we get paid. The idea is to pay for marketing on results, not upfront. We'll see if this business model appeals to influencers and other nft shillers...

  • Marketing

    Changed our name to "The Bling Koala Fashion Klub". The jury is still out if we're gonna keep "klub" or if we're going to adopt the proper spelling... We surpassed 500 Twitter followers on pure organic growth, 1M to go!

  • Web2 Development

    We updated our password recovery mechanism which was not that secure in the current production environment.

  • Web3 Development

    Rinkeby gas price API was pointing to Mainnet! This is now corrected. Deployed new contract with marketing account to the testnet. Prod Web2 still points to old contract.

  • DEPLOYMENT

    We are deploying the game.

  • DEPLOYMENT

    We are now live on mainnet! Let the real hard part begin!
