Elysium Punks are live on @Enter_Elysium mainnet 10k punks w/ art 100% fully onchain. We deployed them on Oct 27, 13 days before the chain's public launch (Nov 9), so first punks on Elysium? pretty sure yes - 0.025 HYPE each, up to 20 per tx - no WL, no reveal, you see your punks right after mint - you pay on HyperEVM and the punks show up on Elysium mint now → epunks.fun 🧵

Oldest NFT collection on Elysium. Soon on @kalosfun & @opensea. Punks are always early. Mint: epunks.fun

Big welcome to our newest whale who minted 20 Punks and just became holder #2,000 lol no way epunks.fun/holders

GM Punks! Counting down to the official Elysium launch 👀 Everything got 5x'ed at Arc launch. This one could go further

Just imagine we deployed Elysium Punks on Oct 27, 11 days ago and 13 days before Elysium mainnet officially opens So if you want one before the chain officially opens, go mint now → epunks.fun. If you'd rather wait for the public RPC that's fine too. @opensea and @kalosfun at day 1.

2 days till Elysium opens to everyone, so here's what the chain actually looks like right now. Where the money is 132k HYPE has come over the bridge so far (about $10.3M) from 18k wallets, 24.6k of it in the last day, and only 3.3k ever went back. The funny part is that only ~21.5k HYPE actually sits in pools, the rest is just parked in wallets, so most people bridged early and are waiting for Nov 9 rather than trading now. 5x guaranteed (DYOR) Who trades About 10k wallets traded 162k HYPE in the last day. Volume here means every buy and sell added up in HYPE, and we count wallets instead of transactions because bots make most of the txs. Even then 28% of the volume is bots, and one address alone (0x8fc298f2, a scalper that buys and sells fresh coins in pairs through its own contract) did 18% of the whole chain's volume. A typical trader moves about 2 HYPE a day, and about half of each day's traders come back the next day Montra quietly took over If you remember one thing from this post make it this one. @MontraXYZ is one of the launchpads on Kinetiq's official ecosystem list, its contracts went up on Nov 4 at 22:43 UTC, and in two days it went from zero to 66% of all volume. Take the bots out and it's still 63%, with 5,853 real wallets trading Montra coins yesterday. We couldn't find a public site for it, we only figured out it was Montra because every coin's metadata on IPFS literally says "launch_provider": "montra" How it makes money: every Montra pool has a hook takes 1 to 2% of each trade in HYPE, two thirds go to whoever launched the coin and one third to Montra. That's 2,417 HYPE in fees so far, 1,269 of it in the last day, and about 430 HYPE (~$33k) a day lands with Montra itself @AscendLaunch is second with 10%, and it's the opposite kind of pad. Almost half of the coins launched there on Nov 5-6 found at least 3 outside traders, on Montra it was 8%. A week ago @ElysiumPump, @TheKleos_ and @Boxa_Elysium had pretty much all the volume between them, now they're at a few % each Don't trust the token count 18,185 pools were created in the last day and 13,208 of them came from a lil farm of wallets that auto-copies Solana memes (pump.fun images and all) onto Montra and Boxa. The farm started with 2.94 HYPE on Nov 5, and out of its first 14k coins 88 ever got a single trade. Real launchers yesterday were 18k wallets The coins that do take off live fast. Among the ones launched on Nov 5-6 that made at least 50 HYPE of volume, the median coin did 90% of its whole volume in the first 18 minutes What changes on Nov 9 The official RPC opens (today it still wants a key, and every pad runs its own node to get around that), and @Pumpfun and @fomo trade from day one. Montra and Ascend each went from zero to a big slice of the market in a couple of days, so expect the same churn again on Sunday, people here follow fresh coins and frontends and nobody is loyal to a pad We'll keep dumping the chain and posting what we see

Gm! 2 days before official Elysium mainnet launch (Punks deployed into mainnet 27 Oct lol). Mint: epunks.fun

Punks will be on @kalosfun since day 1. 🫶🏼

GM. 3 days ☕️

Someone just walked in and minted 40 Elysium Punks in 31 seconds Two txs of 20 each (20 is the max per mint, so they literally hit the cap twice in a row) That makes them the biggest holder on the board by far, the next wallet has 13 (only our deployer has more w/ 52 and that one is us lol) No idea who you are fren but sheesh, welcome. DM us if you feel like it, we'd honestly love to know what made you go for 40 2,091 / 10,000 minted, still 0.025 HYPE each, 100% fully onchain on Elysium epunks.fun

Honest post for a sec You've probably noticed we post way more chain numbers than punk shilling. That's bc writing "mint now 🚀" posts bores me to death lol. What I actually enjoy is digging thru the chain every morning and figuring out what's really going on here, who launches what, where the money goes, which bots got in first And honestly I'm nobody special here. I don't have any connections in this space and we've never bought a single view, so everything you see on this account is organic. Our posts do a few hundred views (a good day is ~1k), and each one is a real person who scrolled past and stopped. I think that means more now than it used to, bc when a fresh account pulls 50k views on every post you kinda know there's a whole machine behind it I'm just a guy who wandered onto Elysium early, deployed punks almost two weeks before the public RPC, and got hooked on reading the chain Maybe we build something bigger around the punks. An NFT launchpad is pretty much ready on our side (not promising anything yet, it just exists lol). We'll see Anyway thanks for sitting thru the long ones. If you vibe w/ it, mint a punk → epunks.fun

GM, pretty much every chain gets its punks at some point, it's kind of a tradition by now. These are Elysium's: 10k, fully onchain, our own take on the format (ofc not affiliated w/ Larva Labs or Kinetiq, we just love punks) Already deployed on Elysium mainnet. 👇 epunks.fun

GM @opensea 👀

Just so you know: NFTs are ~0.1% of all the money moving on Elysium rn. Sit with that for a second. Secure ur punk: -> epunks.fun <-

We did a lil census of NFTs on Elysium this morning, 4 days before it opens. Pulled every NFT contract out and there are 119 of them (all 721, not one 1155), but once you drop the LP positions, name services and test deploys it's more like 25 real collections, and most of those barely moved The one everybody has is ArkhamPad Genesis from @ArkhamPad, a free mint at 4,135 so far where every single token went to a different wallet, so anyone farming the chain probably grabbed one. @ElysianFieldNFT is still the only collection here with an actual crowd behind it (2,222 minted, 376 holders) and after that it falls off fast, @ElysiumOrbit has 1,974 minted but only 83 holders, Elysium Worlds is at 807 with 92, @DimpiesNFT at 289, and Elys Catz went up yesterday at 15:44 UTC and has 72 On the Studio factory @Elysium_Rocks minted out all 100 and the rest of the drops just stalled. @lutra_hl put up a 111 piece drop there yesterday that nobody has minted yet. Someone also launched a Studio drop called "Elysium Punks" and it has 474 minted, which made us laugh a bit lol (not ours, we're 0x8f7606e1…667c) HyperShips, Genesis Beacons and Mosaic Piece are deployed and sitting at zero, maybe waiting for the 9th And us, 1,882 fully onchain punks and 1,755 holders

GM crowd. ☕️

Everyone's worried about vamps on @Enter_Elysium rn, but lemme tell you About 1.4k wallets do 81% of all the volume here, and 67-79% of the people trading a new pad were trading the old ones the same day. So a vamp doesn't bring anyone new, it just moves the same degens from one curve to the next one And it runs on a timer. New pads' tokens lost ~90% of their volume within 48h, Volta and RONS were already down half on day two. After that a pad needs its own runners, copies of BLOB won't carry it past the weekend BLOB at $1.8M cap w/ 693 HYPE a day of volume was mostly paper anyway. Our bet is it gets a good chunk back once Ascend cools off. We'll check in 2-3 days and post it either way

Elysium. Elysium. Elysium.

And we are basically the third deployed NFT contract in here. Punks are punks on every chain.

How much of Elysium is actually memecoins? Much. It's just a reminder that NFTs on @Enter_Elysium are TERRIFICALLY undervalued now. We and @ElysianFields are the only alive projects at pre-mainnet stage (not talking about testnet collections which gained hype ofc and wishing them all the best at launch) So numbers: 278,863 HYPE went thru coins. Every NFT on the chain combined (all the mints plus every secondary sale) comes to about 250 HYPE, so for every 1,000 HYPE that goes into coins less than 1 makes it to NFTs lol And the coins mostly die. 6,489 have launched, 2,733 never got a single trade, and of the ones older than a day 85% are already dead, half of them within 75 min of their first trade. Only 38 ever did 1,000+ HYPE The part I honestly did not expect is the people. 13,127 wallets have traded here, and about half of the ones from the very first week were still trading yesterday. It's the same degens rotating coin to coin every hour, they just never get anything that lasts longer than a lunch break So I think the NFT side is the most underpriced thing on Elysium rn. It's basically empty, and when the crowd shows up on Nov 9 some of them will want something that's still there next week (which is kinda why we put punks here in the first place) What to do with it? Mint a punk lol: epunks.fun Sorry for long readings guys. We know people loves short and fomo'ed texts but sometimes we need to dive deeper

5 days till Elysium opens and in the last 24 hours pretty much every new launchpad moved onto official @Uniswap, and @AscendLaunch finally went live Numbers are from our own dump of the chain, as always (still no official explorer) THE NUMBERS - 66.9k HYPE in the bridge, about $5.7M, +14k since yesterday evening - 66.6k HYPE of volume in the last 24h - 11,620 wallets did something onchain on Nov 4, and the day isn't over yet (4,057 of them only came for a free ArkhamPad Genesis mint though, so don't read too much into that one) - 6,489 tokens total, +2,757 in a day The token count is less than it looks. 325 of the new ones are wrapped xStocks (tokenized stocks like E.ON and AIA) that one contract on HyperEVM bridged over to a single address, and nobody trades them yet. Another 322 came from one launcher where 5 wallets did all of it. Nov 3 also closed as the biggest day this chain ever had, 59k HYPE, but 45% of that was wallets that ended the day flat, so call it ~32k real (still a record lol) UNISWAP ATE THE NEW PADS Until Nov 3 every pool here sat on some platform's own Uniswap fork. Official Uniswap got deployed that morning and had 69 pools by the afternoon. Now it's over 1,000, and most of them run on some launchpad's hook: - @Boxa_Elysium's new zap launcher, 314 pools - @perpmefun, 237 (we're fairly sure this hook is theirs, it went up the same minute as their contract and the coins link back to them) - @VoltaFamily, 211 - @AscendLaunch, 100, all in its first 2.5 hours - @hipsdotfamily and @akadotfun (aka.fun came over from Arc), around 20 each Official v4 and v3 together did 15.5k HYPE in the last 24h, 23% of all volume, and a day before that it was 7%. Honestly did not expect it to flip this fast. @TheKleos_, @ElysiumPump and @ronspadfun still trade on their own forks, and Kleos is still #1 with 24% of volume ASCEND IS LIVE This is the pad the official account keeps boosting. It deployed its contracts at 14:04 UTC on Nov 4 and the first coin went out at 15:08. By 16:31 it had 73 launches from 47 different wallets and 6.3k HYPE had gone thru its hook, 9.5% of the whole day's volume in under an hour and a half. Neither Volta nor RONS did that much in their whole first day, sheesh The busiest coin there is called ASCEND, 270 wallets and 2k HYPE, but some random wallet launched it at 15:12, not Ascend, so don't mistake it for an official token THE BOTS The biggest single address on the chain today is a router, 0x9b601cc4…3333. 1,285 wallets sent it 11.5k HYPE in one day. It comes from the same deployer as the anonymous router we wrote about on Nov 2 (the one we think is BasedBot), and the exact same contract sits at the same address on HyperEVM, so it looks like an existing bot brought its users over. Still our read, nobody has claimed it publicly On top of that 1,210 wallets pushed 7k HYPE via Multicall3, which is some frontend batching buys into every pad's router at once WHAT ELSE - kinetiq:native was the most traded token, 980 wallets and 7.2k HYPE - PERPME, @perpmefun's own coin, sits in the very first pool on official Uniswap v3 and did 1.4k HYPE w/ 227 wallets - HIPS on @hipsdotfamily did 1.5k HYPE from 292 wallets And us, 1,630 fully onchain punks minted (107 of them in the last day), 1,513 holders The official RPC still wants a key and there's no explorer yet. We'll keep watching the chain and posting what we see
