# Messhup's Onchain Colouring Book

Bring Messhup's first creations to the Blockchain.

We want to propose bringing Messhups colouring books to the Blockchain, we have been thinking on how to do this from an NFT strategy point of view, we came up with 3 different strategies that are outlined bellow.

**Randomised Mint:**

* Each page becomes it's own NFT
* Pages will be minted randomly
* 3 pages per transaction

After mint the owner of each page will have the chance of customising the page with the technique of their choosing being colouring, photoshop/illustrator customisation techniques, print and paint irl etc.

After the page has been costumised, the owner can choose to upload their custom creation through a website interface changing the page's metadata for ever on the Blockchain.

**First come First serve:**

* Each page becomes it's own NFT
* Each page is minted in order, with a first come first serve mentality applied to which page the user will be able to get.
* 3 pages per transaction

The same customisation dynamic applies to this model.

**Auctions:**

* Each page becomes it's own NFT
* Pages will be auctioned 
* Users are able to bid on as many pages as they like.

The same customisation dynamic applies to this model.

**Extra Utility:**

We also think that to give extra utility to these pages/
NFTs, each page could become a WL spot for the hypercosplay project that Messhup is currently working on. 

Note: If the number of pages is to big to grant whitelist spots, we could come up with a dynamic to grant these spots to users that costumise their pages and upload the new page.

**Community vote art competition**

One of the ways this could be done is by community voting, hosting a competition every 3 days or every week where participants will put through their entry and it will be voted by the community (timeframe to be decided in terms of urgency regarding the launch of Hypercosplay).

In order to do this a new channel would be created in the Hypercosplay discord so voting can take place.

We can cap the number of entries to make it easier for voters to decide.

**Randomised price tokens**

Some of the pages could be special, perhaps they could come already coloured by Messhup and those immediatly grant you a WL for Hypercosplay, this way it's completely random and we can think of a number of price pages that we feel confortable with.

**Whitelist spots awarded by quantity owned**

Depending on how pages you own you get a number of whitelist spots, Ie:

1-3: 1 Whitelist spot
3-5: 2 Whitewlist spots
5-10: 3 Whitelist spots
10-15: 4 Whitelist spots
15-20: 5 Whitelist spots

Numbers subjected to revision.

**Omboarding the owners of the pages in the prop house - each page = 1 vote.**

**What we need**

* Website with a great UX.
* Smart contract to mint the colouring book pages.
* UI/UX that allows users to upload their creations for each page, note that smart contract must have the option to modify the Metadata of the original page into whatever users upload.
* Depending on the utility dynamic we decide to go for, it will have to be taken into account so we can allocate the WL spots for hypercosplay.
