ABOUT
BLIND BOXES
01.
Opening Blind Boxes offers collectors opportunities to discover new artists and own valuable limited-edition assets. Each round, collectors unlock sealed packages of NFT-linked collectibles, curated from independent creators from around the world. Exceptional collectables of high value will be hidden in boxes at random. Anticipation, the element of surprise, and the desire to collect NFTs drive the appeal to buy Blind Boxes. Opening Blind Boxes also rewards players with BLES tokens. BLES tokens gives users voting rights on the platform and the ability to create their own Blind Boxes.
For creators, including their work in Blind Boxes increases exposure, reach, and direct sales for their portfolio. Smart contracts ensure that they get paid for sales and resales of their work. The underlying technology is a powerfully scalable DApp (decentralized app) launching on layer 2 Ethereum in Q1 2021. We will migrate to Polkadot in Q3 2021. Blind Boxes merges the ingenuity of artists, with the transparency of blockchain, and the excitement of mystery boxes.

FAQ
What is a non-fungible token (NFT)?
NFTs are blockchain-based tokens that are individually unique, irreplicable, and indivisible. NFTs are used to create verified transparent digital ownership of anything from digital art, crypto collectibles, in-game items, or physical assets.
What does it mean to tokenize or mint art?
NFTs unlock the ability to create certifiable digital ownership of individual works of art. The process of minting/tokenized involves creating a unique smart contract based token that lives on a blockchain. Ownership of the NFT equals ownership of the underlying work of art.
What is ERC721?
Standards are a compelling selling point for NFTs. They determine the basic functionality and behavior of an asset. ERC721 is a smart contract standard that provides a mapping of unique identifiers (each of which represents a single asset) to addresses representing the owner of that identifier. ERC721 also provides a permissioned way to transfer these assets.
What are the benefits of Blind Boxes for Artists/Creators?
Blind Boxes expands the exposure, reach, and circulation of artists’ work. Each time a piece is sold within a Blind Box, the original creator gets proceeds. Smart contracts also ensure that they automatically get paid a percentage of any future resales of the piece.
Participating in Blind Boxes exposes artists to new collectors that may not have otherwise discovered them. The transparent nature of NFTs allows creators to easily connect with every buyer that has ever purchased their work. Following initial sales within Blind Boxes, artists can use this connection creatively to cultivate ongoing engagement with their fanbase.
What makes Blind Boxes appealing to buyers?
Blind Boxes combines the excitement of mystery boxes with the power of blockchain. For collectors, it is a fun, beginner-friendly way to build their NFT collections. Each Blind Box provides access to limited-edition assets at various price ranges. Offering the items in sealed or “blind” boxes eliminates the “paradox of choice” issue that can occur in crowded marketplaces. Blind Boxes also simplifies the discovery process. Instead of searching for individual NFT works on multiple platforms, users can purchase Blind Boxes filled with a limited-edition, potentially highly-valuable collectibles, pooled from diverse sources.
Can I list my NFT on different platforms?
NFT standards allow these assets to seamlessly move between ecosystems. When you mint an NFT you can rest assured that it will be compatible with existing marketplaces and wallet providers.
