# Kanaria 2: From the Ashes of Hou-ou

No, it's not the title of a bad 80s Kung-fu flick. It's Kanaria's (and RMRK's) next phase.

Our [Initial Collectible Offering](https://app.subsocial.network/@rmrkapp/kanaria-rmrk-s-initial-collectible-offering-7078) closed on June 30th, and what a ride it's been. We managed to [break](https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/pull/8963) Kusama itself [*twice*](https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/issues/9240), launched two platforms - [Singular](https://singular.rmrk.app) and [Kanaria](https://kanaria.rmrk.app) - and while we've been developing the [core](https://github.com/rmrk-team/rmrk-tools/pull/66) of the [most advanced NFT system in the world](https://url.rmrk.app/dawn) we commissioned 99 custom artworks, ran the [first non-runtime DAO on Kusama and probably the first ever NFT-DAO](https://app.subsocial.network/@rmrkapp/kanaria-dao-proposal-1-results-16541), established partnerships with almost all of the heavy hitters in the Kusama ecosystem, are still running an [art contest](https://kanaria.rmrk.app/artcontest) for 40 custom artworks, and are working together with major players from the Ethereum world on bridges, reimplementations, and stronger standardization.

In total, [the fires of Hou-ou](https://app.subsocial.network/@rmrkapp/the-fires-of-hou-ou-18600) ended up consuming 1185 out of 9000 Limited Edition eggs and 153 out of 900 Rares. Yes, the rares missed their last bonus by only 3 eggs :(

Needless to say, the claim exceeded our wildest expectations. In the beginning even 50% was a distant dream, but with a unique sale angle, working products, and a good vision, we've proven that we can create demand and establish symbiotic relationships across the entire ecosystem.

The burned eggs contained 1171521.0356 $RMRK, or 11.7152% of the total supply. With growing CEX interest and 88% of the tokens in the hands of the community, this means our original [tokenomics](https://url.rmrk.app/wp-pub) plan needs a revamp - more on that in a separate post as we get our bearings and decide what to do.

## Snapshot and Token Allocations

The token allocation snapshot took place on July 1st, noon CET. Here's what this means:

- every account that held eggs on July 1st noon CET has been assigned a token allocation based on these eggs. The allocation is visible at [kanaria.rmrk.app/tokens][k].
- you can now send the eggs around, sell them, destroy them, hatch them - your token allocation will remain unchanged.
- **if you lost access to the account which had eggs on July 1st, noon CET, you HAVE LOST ACCESS TO YOUR TOKENS. We will NOT be moving the allocation to a new account because it is not possible to prove that you owned that account.**
- the tokens will be minted as soon as Statemine, the chain on which we will be minting them, is permissionless and we're allowed to mint.
- you will have until **the end of 2021** to claim the tokens once they are minted. You will claim them on [kanaria.rmrk.app/tokens][k]. **ALL INSTRUCTIONS WILL BE PUBLISHED THERE, no need to do anything yet.**

## Stats

We have 1711 individual egg holders, with an average of 5 eggs per holder. Here's what the curve of eggs per holder looks like:

![](https://i.imgur.com/DQOhsSY.png)

In total, people have sent in 1'200'000 emotes with an average of 121 per egg. Before Kusama's fees were reduced, we spent a total of 54KSM on emotes, and after another 78KSM at 50x less cost 😱

Of all 8661 claimed eggs, 7971 are hatching at this moment. 217 accounts seem to have completely forgotten about Kanaria (they only have unhatched eggs), effectively forgetting about a 3086 KSM (~$600,000 based on an exchange rate of $200 per KSM).

Of the 99 Founder eggs, 90 are hatching and 9 are rotting (fingers crossed they survive! 🤞).

In terms of our partnerships and referral links:
