Autistic Reindeer Herd

Autistic Reindeer Herd is the first NFT collection initiated by an autistic person and physically backed by handmade wooden reindeers (see below). There will be a total amount of 70 69 Autistic Reindeer NFTs and they have the following two functions:

  • They will whitelist you for upcoming projects either for a guaranteed mint, a discounted mint or a even a free mint (just need to pay the transaction fee).
  • If you are a verified reindeer, are willing to burn your NFT (therefore lose the privileges mentioned above) and have a shipping address within the European Union, you will actually be able to receive your unique physical reindeer free of charge (would not recommend doing that, see FAQ - Can I purchase a wooden reindeer?).

The mint date for the Autistic Reindeer Herd will be 01:01:22 on Saturday, January 1, 2022 GMT. The mint price will be 0.35 SOL (approx. 55€/62$ at time of mint).

In the following image you can see the reindeers (or as colleagues call them "Rentiere mittelmäßiger Qualität", although these are the improved Gen 1 reindeers - "Rentiere von höchster Qualität") which physically back the entire NFT colletion. Those reindeers work as sculpture alone, as wine rack or even as firewood. They are all carefully handmade with love and a lot of passion by using a laser cutter.

A laser cutter?!

Yes! Carefully handmade by using a laser cutter.

How does that fit?

Those are not mass-produced reindeers from china, but lovingly-produced reindeers from a single person from Austria.

Roadmap

There is no fancy roadmap for this particular NFT collection like a Tesla giveaway at x%, world peace at y% or similar. It is as simple as that:

  1. SELL OUT

The upcoming NFT projects will have a more detailed roadmap and this NFT collection will be part of it! Sadly, again no Tesla giveaway :(

There are several milestones I want to achieve in 2022 and with help of our community it may be possible. This NFT collection released in January 2022 should be just the start of something huge, so come and be part of it, as long as it is possible. More details will follow after we are sold out.

THANK YOU

FAQ

Autistic Reindeer Herd is a collection of 70 69 uniquely generated Autistic Reindeer NFTs on the Solana blockchain and are physically backed by handmade wooden reindeers. Unlike other NFTs it also has the following additional functions:

  • They will whitelist you for upcoming projects either for a guaranteed mint, a discounted mint or a even a free mint (just need to pay the transaction fee).
  • If you are a verified reindeer, are willing to burn your NFT (therefore lose the privileges mentioned above) and have a shipping address within the European Union, you will actually be able to receive your unique physical reindeer free of charge (would not recommend doing that, see FAQ - Can I purchase a wooden reindeer?).
  • The two core functions of the NFT are mentioned above and are guaranteed right by sale start. Additional functions may come over time with ongoing success.

Each Autistic Reindeer was created algorithmically by mixing a variety of traits (a total of 52 traits) with different probabilities. The possible traits are split in the following categories: Background, Clothes, Eyes, Headwear, Mouth, Nose and Skin

Just connect your Solana wallet by clicking on "Connect Wallet" and follow the instructions.

  1. Get the Phantom wallet extension for your browser (Chrome or Firefox is recommended). https://phantom.app
  2. Purchase SOL, for example on exchanges like Crypto.com, Binance, Coinbase, Huobi or FTX and send it to your wallet, which you created in step one.
  3. Now connect your wallet by clicking on "Connect wallet"
  4. Click the "Mint" button and approve the transaction in your wallet dialogue.

There is a total number of 70 69 Autistic Reindeers to mint.

After successful mint you will see a confirmation on your screen. Shortly afterwards you should be able to see your Autistic Reindeer in your wallet.

I would recommend Phantom wallet: https://phantom.app

Yes, I collect an industry-standard of 5% royalty from every sale on secondary markets.

Basically me, an autistic person that likes reindeers. Unfortunately, I lack of friends (but hopefully that will change one day) and COVID put stones in the way, so I had help from an amazing artist from Indonesia and from an amazing laser cutting expert from Austria to realize all within time.

This is a good question!
  • This particular NFT project is planned as nonprofit project. The excess of the revenue (i.e. "Mint/Mint Wallet") gets donated to Indien: Mädchen in Gefahr.
  • If you are still unsure if you should mint one, I will guarantee the following:
    • If the upcoming projects 2022 should fail, I will donate 55€ to every organisation (should be something social, charity, etc.) each NFT holder tells me in the advent season 2022, so a total of 3795€ which is about the same as the inital revenue. (Mind: Burned Autistic Reindeers do not count!)
    • If 2022 will be a year of success, same as above, but this time it will be 110€.
    So basically if you mint an Autistic Reindeer, you will get a either a 55€ or a 110€ donation to an organisation of your choice for free. (If you are concerned where I would get all those money from, my good old "Bausparvertrag" will be unlocked 2022 and I am willing to use it for this purpose.)
  • Last but not least, you would support someone from your community to start something serious.

  1. 800.00€ - Production of all wooden reindeers
  2. 300.00€ - Artist (including a tip >50€)
  3. 1035.00€ - Funding for shipping (69 x 15.00€ - Paket Light International, non boxable, Zone 2,<1kg according to post.at)
  4. 200.00€ - Marketing, hosting, packaging

So there is a total cost of 2335€ and as mentioned the excess of the revenue (i.e. "Mint/Mint Wallet") will be donated to the project Indien: Mädchen in Gefahr and should be a total of approx 1460€. If the shipping to some people should be cheaper than 15.00€, the excess will also get donated to the mentioned project.

There are basically two generations:

  • Gen 1 ("Rentiere von höchster Qualität") which you are able to mint in this project and are produced by a single person from Austria (not me).
  • Gen 0 ("Rentiere mittelmäßiger Qualität") which are produced by me, but have an other purpose than Gen1. More details about Gen 0 will follow but already working on that behind the scenes.

Already working on Gen 0 as side project (as "prequel" to Gen 1) and an upfollowing project to this one. More details are coming after we are sold out. If you are impatient, just relax and wait. It will pay off before advent season 2022 ;)

Not right now, but if the upcoming projects will succeed it may be possible to offer them as "merchandise" soon™. So probably better waiting for the merchandise reindeers (they will not have a serial number!) than burning your original Gen 1 Autistic Reindeer ;)

Unfortunately, Autistic Reindeer #13 got separated from the herd, but decided to make the best out of the situation and returned to the workshop to learn more about laser cutting.

Wait until Grape Verification setup is completed (see Discord) and you are verified as @Autistic Reindeer - Gen 1.

Make sure you really want to burn your NFT and therefore lose the other priviledges (Mind the FAQ section about merchandise and priviledges).
We will only ship within the European Union, so keep that in mind!

If you are 100% sure you want to burn your NFT, send me your shipping information via DM and wait for further instructions.

Mind: We use a project specific burn wallet

(Is the only valid address for this purpose)

After final verification and the shipping is completed, the NFT you sent to that wallet will be finally burned by the intended solana burn mechanism.
