^brilliantly executed. I love the fact that "cheating" with a bot is finally being recognized for what it should be: being smart. If you don't want smart people to beat you, be smarter.
that's just it. you don't even need a bot. you could have just gone to etherscan, connected your metamask wallet and wrote to the contract at the right time. done. you don't need speed when you are creating a transaction, you just need a lot of ether.

Right I say "bot" but it was the custom contract combined with a few other methods to guarantee success. Essentially doing the same thing that bots that buy prints and sneakers do. So well done.


This is what I love about this space, it's all out in the open. No more lurking in the shadows

Are you guys just talking about minting straight on the contract from etherscan or something more complex than that?

What the guy did with The Sevens must have been a lot more than just minting from etherscan, no?

If its just minting from etherscan i know how to do that. if what you're talking about is more than that can you fill me in? :)

The guy from the sevens drop wrote his own contract to interact with the sevens contract in an allowable manner. Then he bought out a block of miners to get his tx processed right away for an agreed upon fee.


You're not going to be able to mint from the contract on sneaky vamps

how exactly do you buy a block of miners? how does one know who is gonna find that nonce in the haystack and be allowed to process the transaction?

Our discord should hit by 1k by Sunday. Possibly more. Kind of crazy. Here is the link if you haven't joined yet https://discord.gg/EMaUCwYkz7

There is one project I'm really hoping we get to work on.

This discord is going to be your main spot for all nft drops?
