We have a Very Unique Story and we are Telling it in a way that is Totally Revolutionary — Founder's Interview

Chris: Hi there! Please introduce yourself. 

BK3: Hi, I'm BK3 aka "Owner" the vision behind the CARGYZ series. I have worked for over 25 years in the auto industry and want to share my experience with the NFT community. The car business is a marvelous industry full of hardworking people that help make our transportation dreams come true.  

Chris: Cargyz NFTs is a light-hearted celebration of the people from the auto industry. What is the story behind the team collaboration and creation of this specific NFT?

BK3: The car business is a marvelous industry full of hardworking people that help make our transportation dreams come true. There are millions of people involved in the manufacturing, transporting and selling of automobiles. We frequently take for granted, the sacrifice these individuals make it possible to have a new vehicle in our driveway. There are so many facets to the business, that in order to truly portrait the heroes of the industry, CARGYZ will need to have multiple collections. We are starting our story at the end of the long chain of people in this process, the Dealership. This group of unlikely heroes, endured the most difficult circumstances during the last 2 years of the Pandemic. Retail sales requires in person activity, no work from home here. With only a paper mask and some hand sanitizer, these sales professionals helped the buying public with their transportation needs. 

Chris: While we understand that the automotive industry was hit hard in the past two years, we would like to know if this NFT has the support of people and companies from the automotive sector?

BK3: The CARGYZ project is relatively new, in fact we only made our public debut a few weeks ago. We have a very unique story and we are telling it in a way that is totally revolutionary to this industry. The team is currently reaching out to industry leadership, looking for the endorsement of the Collection. One of our hurdles is that NFT's and the Metaverse are so new, most of these industry titans have never even considered them. We have found ourselves educating them and opening their eyes to the future. As new support comes on board we will add them to our roadmap, along with benevolence outreach. 

Chris: Similarly, how have you designed the NFTs so that each one of them is unique and different from the other?

BK3: First we started with a very talented artist from Italy, Mattia Tanieli. He took our vision, and cast a whimsical light on it. The subject may be serious but the art doesn't need to be. The result is a lovable cast of characters that should bring a smile to industry insiders and the motoring public. Along the way, we show you the importance of hierarchy for the team. The Owner, General Manager, and all the supporting managers have a rarity equal to their title. Additionally the bulk of the cast is the Salespeople, the backbone of the Dealership. Tanieli added numerous layers of variation from backgrounds and glasses to lips and jackets. Some are tired, some are happy but all are out there making a living selling cars.  

Chris: When do the NFTs release? How many NFTs will be up for sale at the public minting?

BK3: CARGYZ Series 1 will be a 10,000 piece collection in it's debut release. The whitelist mint is preliminarily scheduled to start on 3/29/2022 and the public mint on 3/31/2022. Check our website for any changes as new sponsorship alliances materialize. 

Chris: In addition to this, please share your pricing structure with our readers. Are the rare tokens priced at a premium?

BK3: We really want to show our appreciation to those that join the team early. Whitelisted addresses will be able to mint their CARGYZ for only .07 ETH.+GAS. That price point will only be possible until the public mint begins. After that period expires, all CARGYZ tokens will be .10 ETH.+GAS. These prices could net you the most common or rarest of the tokens.

Chris: In the same way, please describe the minting process for Cargyz NFT. How can I buy my NFT?

BK3: Getting a CARGYZ token minted is easy, simply go to the website, join the discord  and register for the whitelist. When the day finally arrives and the mint is live, just connect your supported wallet and in no time you'll be a CARGYZ too. Also, don't forget to join our Discord and Twitter. It is the best way to stay informed on news and announcements.

Chris: Before we end, please share the roadmap with our readers. How do you plan to go ahead with Cargyz NFT after the first sale?

BK3: Our roadmap is always evolving, the project is new and our goals are lofty. The plan is to go from the NFT world on OPENSEA, to the VR world in the Metaverse and then on to the big screen with an animated series. Can we get there? We are working hard everyday just like the people we pay homage to. It will take many hands to get us there, please join us for the ride!
