Think of Owning ByeBanX NFT as a Never Ending season Ticket to your Favorite Sports Team or Musician β€” Creator's Interview

Chris: ByeBanx is in the SummitBC ecosystem. What inspired this project and how does it connect to the others?

ByeBanx team: SummitBC is a design studio and crypto company focused on providing value to its community through exciting crypto projects. All of the ecosystem projects feed in some way into the other projects, so for example ByeBanX has the utility of giving you access to our next NFT project, the Nemesis Apes of EdYN. EdYN is a fully 3D 8K metaverse avatar project with ambitions of becoming a blue chip NFT project, links into gaming and full metaverse utility. 

Chris: And the team? Who are some of the key members of this project? What are their backgrounds and how long have they been working together? 

ByeBanx team: Our founder is one of the top holders of HAPE, so has some deep running connections there and our team also consists BAYC holders so there are some nice links into that community also. There is a collaboration in play already with Chelsea and England’s John Terry and his project the Ape Kids Football Club, expect some more collaborations to be announced very soon. FST- an established advertising company who have been in advertising for many years also played a big part in the journey. This collaboration with our in house designers (made up from a variety of skilled backgrounds from CGI, advertising, graphic design and editing) and an experience programmer who created and deployed the contract, made a strong and versatile team in bringing the project to life.

Chris: So you say that ByeBanx has levels. Tell us a bit more about the initial tasks you will start working on once you reach the sell level. 

ByeBanx team: ByeBanX holders will not only be owners of a unique piece of art (all 666 are different and have various traits) but they become part of our exclusive membership group, which includes access to future projects such as the EdYN project I mentioned above but also projects involved with the progressive roadmap of ByeBanX which includes IRL (in real life) benefits also. There are 666 pieces of this collection as it represents the devilish ways of the previous (/current) era. We are in the process of creating a second series that shows the devilish ways of the future to hopefully inspire change and improvements of the crypto/digital world also. It is likely our ByeBanX collection will have a utility built around “The bad of the past VS the bad of the future”.

Chris: How about utilities. This is becoming more and more important in the NFT space. What utilities do you offer community members? 

ByeBanx team: Touched on this above but owning a ByeBanX NFT will get exclusive access to future projects within the ECO system for all future projects, NFT and crypto alike. Think of owning ByeBanX NFT as a never ending season ticket to your favorite sports team or musician, for a one off cost. You can choose to mint/ contribute to the future project if you like or not. But either way, the opportunity will be given to you for owning one. There will also be IRL benefits.

Chris: Another common area of interest is longevity. Many buyers are looking for long term returns. What are the long term plans for the ByeBanx community? 

ByeBanx team: Mass adoption. The increase already is phenomenal with many celebrities jumping on the band wagon, it is an extremely exciting space, anyone coming in gets hooked very quickly.

Chris: So, as a curious buyer, tell me about the drop between the 31st of January and the 8th of February. How many NFTs are being sold and how much does one cost? Is there a restriction on the number of NFTs I can mint? 

ByeBanx team: The mint price was 0.1 ETH and they have now sold out- the majority sold out during minting and the remaining pretty much instantly sold out on release of public sale. People can still get them on the secondary market at Bye BanX - Collection | OpenSea, they are hot property so the FOMO is settling in!
