SPACE-02 and the beginning of Multi-space (UPDATE)

4 min readOct 6, 2021

TLDR: SPACE-02 has its own mechanics, and through those mechanics, it increases the utility of the BLS token and ensures a steady burn rate. Yields and gamification included (as is standard)! But most importantly, it introduces a multi-space setup, which is the foundation of scaling 1000Blocks.space!

Time to scale

Since the start of 1000Blocks.space we had a vision that somewhere in the future people will create NFTs in a collaborative way; Either for fun or on-demand (btw, notice it was always ‘NFTs’ (plural) not 1 NFT). With this in mind, we knew that we need to: a) check product/market fit with one NFT and b) expand somehow to multiple NFTs.

We have motivated thousands of Space Apes to claim over 3000 areas to then post their art/advertisements/etc and managed to mint and sell that NFT! We filled the rewards pool with 200+ BNB (which the community now enjoys the yields of) and we burned over 100k BLS tokens! 💪🏼

What is next?

HOW IT WORKS — 1000Blocks in a nutshell

This article describes some simple 1000Blocks concept topics such as rewards system, NFT auction, and future use cases.

SPACE-02 is LIVE!

SPACE-02, codename Infinite Burn, feels familiar but still so different! With the objective to make the 2nd Space more affordable to a broader audience but also give additional utility to our beloved BLS token and still keep everything fun and rewarding: we came up with a whole new game dynamics 🥸

Here is what you will encounter on SPACE-02:

Claiming Blocks

A Space Ape can claim up to 42 Blocks at a time.
A Space Ape can cover those Blocks with a picture of his choice.
A Space Ape can claim blocks unlimited times BUT a minimum of 24 min needs to pass between the claims (restricted per wallet).
To claim a Block there will be a fixed fee: 0.0042BNB. If it’s an empty block or someone already claimed it. It always stays the same. 0.0042BNB

Takeovers (TOF)

If Block/-s already have a previous owner (is covered) a “Take over fee” (TOF) applies.
The TOF is to be paid in BLS tokens! (Yes, that’s right. No more playing the game without BLS)
The TOF is dynamic, depending on time! (yes, not the previous owner of the block)
The TOF will start at 240BLS per Block and decrease every second until it hits 0 BLS after 24h.
Once the TOF of a Block is 0 BLS, it will stay 0 BLS for 1h
After 1h the TOF will bounce to 2BLS per Block.

Lottery

With Chainlink integrated Verifiable Random Function (https://docs.chain.link/docs/chainlink-vrf/) we introduced a system that randomly rewards a user that claims Block/-s on Space02.

Approx. every 24 hours a random block is chosen on the space to become the lottery winner. The winner receives 2400 BLS as a reward.

Payment is automatically in the winner's wallet, no need to claim! 🐱‍🏍💕

Rewards

Space Ape yields 20BLS per Block per Day as long as it is visible.
Before “the bounce” 76% of the TOF will go to the previous owner of the Block. 24% of the TOF will… well by now you should guess it: BURN BABY BURN 🔥🔥🔥
After the bounce back to 2 BLS TOF per Block: 100% will get burned 🔥

NFT MINT

The SPACE-02 will be minted only once. There will be a countdown timer of 42h before that. So keep your eyes open to get on that NFT before the mint!

And that’s it!

Multispace changes the game

SPACE-02 sounds fun, right? We can’t wait for what the community creates this time! But for us, equally (if not even more) exciting is the fact that with SPACE-02 we are opening the door to a multi-space future. This means we can now launch additional spaces faster and with very different rules. And all of them will fill our universal Rewards Pool! 🏆

Also, don’t forget, with a multi-space setup the Space Ape now needs to think multi-dimensional — which space will he participate in? When, how? How much? Gamechanger 🤯

Still so much to come

Naturally, we won’t stop with SPACE-02. We are opening the door to multi-space with a reason. We are happy to inform you that we already have a few deals for promo spaces (a time-limited space in collaboration with a special partner, that will reward the community with special goodies).

We also have planned our own NFT collection 🙊🙈🙉

This collection will give the owners special superpowers on our 1000Blocks platform (more about that in a dedicated article later on)…
