THE FUTURE OF MIDEVILS ⚔️ The goal for @MidEvilsNFT is to burn 25% of the collection by December 2026. We have roughly 14 months to do that. If we achieve that, it will position MidEvils as the best collection on Solana—not because we burned a quarter of the supply, but because of HOW we did it. We believe that burning is one of the most powerful and simplest ways to connect art to crypto. A burn mechanism gives us (Infinite Fun) the freedom to experiment with smaller projects while creating a natural supply crunch for MidEvil collectors. We believe this is a rare win-win that satisfies both art lovers/collectors and NFT enthusiasts (degens) at the same time. Although no one knows the answer to ultimate success in this space, @jonnydegods and I know what does NOT work. Hyping up a massive project that takes months to complete generally does not work. The team grinds day in and day out for months, putting in countless hours to complete the project. When it finally launches, it might not even be a viral success. And if it is a success, the community is satisfied for about a week. Then this magical thing happens... people seem to forget that the team just worked for months to deliver. Communities grow restless, asking “wen?” while the team burns out scrambling for the next big thing. No one wins in the end, because everyone gets burned out and moves on. MidEvils is designed to play the game differently. Instead of chasing one massive release, we are focusing on a rhythm of smaller, niche projects that can keep excitement steady without draining the creators or the community. Another reason NFT projects generally die out and fail is because they either lean too heavily into crypto-native pump-and-dump mechanics, or they focus entirely on the art. Pump-and-dumps are doomed to fail—every. single. time. On the other hand, 100% art projects are hard to sustain because, to be honest, most people aren’t in it for the art alone. People might be drawn in by the art, but the art is never the reason they stay in a project. MidEvils is designed in such a way that it focuses on both sides in a healthy way. For art collectors, a burn unlocks unique art moments such as limited edition prints, physical figures, signed work, comics, etc. And for the degens, the burn provides mechanics they want out of a collection—scarcity, gamification, and the excitement of participating in an ever-evolving collection. At Infinite Fun, we believe the recipe to a successful NFT project is a perfect mesh of art (and physical art) along with crypto-native activations. MidEvils will be a collection where there’s something new to look forward to every month. Not a giant “world-changing” drop, but tight and satisfying projects that feel fun and collectible: - A Ghostar figurine one month - A 25-edition high-value signed print the next - A trait-swap mechanic where the community burns to change a rugged trait - A painted MidEvil the month after that - A new character introduced through burning your Mid - etc Each project is small but perfectly impactful, ensuring that at least once a month there is a viral loop for MidEvils—where everyone on Crypto Twitter (and hopefully beyond) is seeing us on the timeline. This rhythm should be the heartbeat of MidEvils We don’t think of burning simply as a way to crunch supply for you degens. We think of it as our canvas. Each burn is an experiment that lets the community shape the project with us. As we navigate the next 14 months, Jonny and I are going to learn about the things you respond to and the things you don’t. If we find that the community responds more to transforming the MidEvils collection through trait swaps, then maybe we’ll focus more on that. Or maybe we’ll discover that you have the most fun with an interactive airdrop game, and then we’ll lean into that. The point is, having these “burn cycles” allows us to find what works not just for us, but for you—the community. We truly believe that MidEvils can be a top tier collection on Solana by implementing this model. We feel strongly about this because no other project has actually done it. We see MidEvils being the MSCHF of crypto. Other projects have tried, but they’ve been bogged down by having too large of a team, not being willing to spend money (and potentially fail), too much overthinking, and not enough quick thinking. We believe that if we create a fun and sticky burn mechanic every month for an entire year, we will generate enough noise that everyone will know what MidEvils is—and they will all want to join. Although we keep saying “Make NFTs fun again,” that does not mean we are going to run the same playbook as NFT projects did in 2022. The days of staking for a passive income coin are over. The days of Season 2 total art revamps are over. The days of mass celebrity onboarding are over. And honestly, I am glad those days are over. I think @solana needs a project where the community is constantly interacting and engaging. Solana needs a project with constant fun and viral loops to bring eyes to the chain and to NFTs. Solana needs a project that exists purely to create good experiences for people who are otherwise bogged down by mind-numbing charts that inevitably leave them sad and poor. This isn’t about pumping a chart. This is about telling a story through the medium of NFTs.

So anyways; it’s a micro niche pfp project of desert lizards called THE MIDZARDS, 888 piece pixel art by @sircandyapple & @jonnydegods. You have to burn 2 of your @MidEvilsNFT that are in training(staked) to save them from the desert burn and immortalise them on the @solana blockchain. We call them jizzards in our little micro niche discord chat called midevils-bst🤝🏼 it’s full of chads we love our little lizzards ❤️‍🔥
