FAQ
What
CMD+A is a platform designed by Moonbirds holders, for Moonbirds, Mythics, Oddities, Proof Collective, Ghouls and Lostbirds. We want to embrace the artists and non-artists within the community and foster a fun and entertaining competition each month for ETH and glory.
How
A monthly theme is revealed at the first of every month, each holder will have a chance to create a unique piece of art for anonymous submission, FOR FREE. Once submitted, the entire community can vote on their favorites. No artists names will be revealed during the voting period. The winning artwork will be available for minting for a limited time at the end of each month. After minting has closed the artists name will be revealed! Command+A will be run on the Arbitrum network, an L2 to Ethereum for easy transferring to L1 if desired.
Who
Moonbirds, Mythics, Oddities, Proof Collective, Ghouls and Lostbirds holders can participate in the monthly art contest. One wallet equals one art submission per month. After the reveal all holders who voted (for the winning artwork or not) can mint the winning submission for 0.01 ETH on the Arbitrum network.
Why Arbitrum
Arbitrum's next-generation rollup provides 7x more throughput than Ethereum and lower fees without sacrificing any security. It's an L2 that uses ETH as its currency making it simple to use. Mints on Arbitrum natively appear on OpenSea profiles. To learn more and to transfer ETH we recommend using the Prohibition Art bridge https://bridge.prohibition.art/
How to participate
Connect to CMD+A (delegate.cash preferred) and read the monthly theme. Think, create and submit artwork. Wait to see if your artwork wins the monthly competition then bask in the fame when your name is released to the community. Winner WILL receive $2,000 USD (starting in the month that Lunar Society funds are received) and minting revenue. Glory will come in the form of a tweet from the official Moonbirds twitter account after that month's winner is announced.
When
Each month: on the 1st a new theme is announced and art submissions open to Moonbirds, Mythics, Oddities, Proof Collective, Ghouls and Lostbirds holders until the 14th; voting happens from the 15th to 19th (artist names remain hidden); winning artwork announced on the 19th; minting of winning artwork from the 20th to 24th; winning artist name revealed on the 25th.
Who is behind this
The Four Horsemen of Dead Birds Society (theMikeElf, Sourpapi, Omri, KevBro) were brainstorming over how they could help Moonbirds holders have fun and get excited about art created by the community. Also, because why the hell not.
