    With our first pack drop in the books, we wanted to update our community on what’s next for UFC Strike in the short term and long term. Don’t forget, as a THANK YOU to everyone who purchased UFC Strike: Fully Loaded packs, you should be receiving your gifted Moment(s) today. So check your account and tag us on Twitter and Instagram with what you pulled.

    Initially, we had planned to have another release of Fully Loaded packs on January 31st, but as we look to address the community’s feedback, specifically around Moments being viewable in your Dapper Wallet before the pack is opened and the assembling of packs, we are pushing this drop to February 7th, where we will be releasing an additional 30,000 Fully Loaded packs for sale.

    We also wanted to share an update on some other features that you can expect to see from UFC Strike.


    Marketplace


    We are excited to announce that the UFC Strike Marketplace will also launch on February 7th. This will allow you to purchase individual Moments from others, in addition to listing your own Moments for sale. So if you have been eyeing a particular UFC Strike NFT to add to your collection, February 7th will be the day to do it. If you are new to the NFT space or UFC Strike, be sure to read our 101 blog, on all the basics you need to know to get started.


    Series 1 Preview


    With Series 0 wrapping up on the 7th, we are excited to share more information on what’s to come in Series 1. Here is just a small teaser of what’s to come…

    • Regular Pack Drops
    • New Moments from UFC’s past and present
    • More Athlete Integrations & Partnerships
    • Benefits for UFC Moment holders
    • and more!
    Again, we are so excited to break new ground in the MMA and NFT space with this community, and looking forward to sharing more details about this journey with you shortly.

    I’ve never completed a Legendary challenge before but I went in with a friend and we bought every moment needed for the next two Top Shot Holo challenges (Franz Wagner and Ja Morant). I already had three of the wild cards (based on the pattern of the first challenge) needed but we had to buy 11 other Holo’s. Im calculating that with both challenges, we have a ~10% chance to get at least one premium serial # (1 or jersey) between the two rewards.

    I'm going to go ahead and level up my CS on TopShot.

    Currently In the process of stacking T-Wolves moments.

    I’ve got a T-Wolves complete set. It was the second one I did after the Hawks. It’s reasonably valued without an expensive bottleneck. The KAT Legendaries and Rares are pretty reasonably priced to get a good player and get the collector points from it. The worst part of the T-Wolves though is that they don’t have playoff moments. Those are the best value to stack at 60 cs for $8 to $10 with a complete team set. That’s what I did with the Hawks and now anytime I just need a few extra Dapper, I list them for the low price and they get scooped up in an hour. Getting the Legendaries at 3K cs (series 2) and 6K (series 1) are best at holding value but you have to be more patient to get liquid sometimes.

    Came to post the same thing. Sign me uppppp for that. Forget scaling out, I'm about to double down. The new flash challenges seem to be driving a ton of volume as they just set a record for the most marketplace transactions last month, and now this. To the moon

    What’s your favorite team? I always recommend to go that way as long as it’s not one of the few that have $$ bottlenecks.

    I have the bucks S2 team set, they have a ton of playoff moments so that’s an easy stack. And my personal opinion is everyone should complete the wnba summer set but that’s just me shilling

    Ok, complete the Bucks set ALL and series 2 as well. It’s cheap to do both relatively speaking. About $750. Then load up on all Bucks series 2 playoff moments. They are $13 floor but will give you 60 cs each if you have all Bucks and series 2. So $1300 after completing would get you 6000 cs more. Also just a matter of time before team set holders are rewarded in some way.

    Guy in my VIP group pulled the #1 DeRozan reward. That was a surprising number of completions for a Legendary challenge. The highest % by far since series 1. On one hand that kind of sucks for me going for the Ja reward but on the other hand that means the market is healthy. Ben Simmons/Embiid had 28 and 33 completions for their Holo challenges in series 2 when the market was in the dumps.

    One potential downside for the new way theyre doing packs, though I guess they were basically already there anyways, is with the ability to get rares and legendaries in normal packs, they can just print the series 3 base moments to infinity and basically do limitless pack counts. The new limits based around CS are setting that up as well I think. Could see drops with insane numbers of packs available.

    They’ve already done that. Series 3 common (outside rookies) are pretty worthless other than trading in for trade tickets or using for flash challenges. The series 3 rare and Legendary tier have kept the same cs points however as series 2.

    Just need to keep bringing in 5K new users a month and hope that half of those people stay invested with the challenges. It will be one addicting then. Also just bring in a couple of whales from the cardboard market monthly. They are the ones bringing in big new $$ every month into the infrastructure keeping the higher tier moments up in price. The OGs aren’t spending anything now because they all made their stack and can just play with it. Most of them seem to be keeping it in the marketplace after their initial windfall withdrawals in February and March. Can’t blame them for getting 10 to 50x out their initial investment though. This was a very risky venture back in 2020. It’s still risky and volatile but exponentially less.

    Looks like you have a few mins to mint.

    They look cool but haven't done any research on it other than their Discord is massive and was hacked a week or so ago. If it helps most of the projects doing well also had their Discord hacked recently.

    Looks like the snapshot is in a couple days. From your post I take it you're firmly on the side of burning the coin and minting the comic, vs just selling the coin?

    I'm willing to gamble for one of the limited edition #2 comics with it being Pixel Vault. They've hinted that there's more utility with the ape coin than it being a lottery. I'm thinking they will be used for other giveaways and/or each coin is eligible for a Sidekick.

    It looks like a lot of people are stocking up too. I was a top 10 holder a few days ago and barely in the top 100 now.

    Sounds interesting. Would that extra utility go away if you burn it to mint the comic, or does the comic just gain that utility?
