Get ETH and ARt For your Rug

Overview

Do you ever look in your wallet and see that one (or more) NFTs that just makes you cringe because it rugged or tanked on you? Are you exhausted from trying to chase the next 🚀 to the moon only to end up in a tank? Does the cost of gas mean you’d be essentially paying to get rid of the nft? Did you really love the art? Projects fail for many different reasons. Sometimes it's a rug, sometimes it's just circumstances, but the residue from those experiences can be painful. Kimsayyou and FUDupNFT will be beta testing the Recovering Moonaholics Program. This program will swap/buy your failed/rugged/tanked nft and replace it with hand curated art from artists.

 

Remove the eyesore and heartache from your wallet and replace it with something beautiful hand curated for you based on what we see in your wallet. 

 

  • Get ETH - Depending on the situation we will buy or reimburse gas for a transfer of the nft you want to get rid of

  • Get Art

    • We can either hand curate a piece of art from our TEZ collection and send it to you OR

    • We will let you pick a work from our collection OR

    • You can find a TEZ piece you like (must be under 5 TEZ) and we will buy it for you and send it to you

  • Improve general mental wellbeing by

    • Removing a painful trigger​

    • Giving you something beautiful to look at

  • All art will be on TEZ. You’ll need a TEZ wallet. 

​

  • What are the goals of this effort?

    • Shift the mindset from mooning to enjoying 

    • Share art with more people and spread the word about artists

    • Help collectors discover new artists they might like

    • Give you something beautiful to enjoy

    • Get more collectors on tezos

  • Why TEZ?

    • Aside from the reasons everyone should be on TEZOS (see top bullets here https://tezos.art/ )

    • We love the TEZOS platform and what it represents and because it’s TRULY focused on the art, you can relax and really enjoy the art​​

      • Join our spaces

      • Be a guest curator - in the future we'll be looking for guest curators for our collection

​

Collector FAQ

  • How do I get my rugged/tanked nft swapped?

  • If I apply, will my NFT definitely get selected? If not, how will you select?

    • No. We will be working within budget constraints so selections will be limited by that. We will start the beta on a first come first served basis for entries that qualify.  When the budget runs out, we'll pause until we have more funds. ​

  • What about gas and royalties? What are the logistics? How exactly does this work and how will you pay for my rug/tank NFT?

    • We’ve learned that the floor price of these rugged/tanked projects is so low that the gas is often more so here’s what we do

      • You fill out the Google Form (this should take you less than 5 mins)

      • We contact you if we’d like to buy/swap your work. DO NOT SEND US ANYTHING UNTIL WE HAVE AGREED IN ADVANCE WE WILL NOT GUARANTEE RETURN OF MISTAKENLY SENT NFTs OR REFUND GAS FOR MISTAKES

      • Once we’ve talked and agreed you’ll send us your nft

      • Let us know how much you paid in gas and we will send you the eth for the floor price plus gas to transfer (or whatever we agree to in advance)

      • We’ll send you your art based on your preference in the form

  • Why do you do it this way?

    • As mentioned above the gas becomes prohibitive otherwise and we don’t want you paying us to take something off your hands

    • In some cases it’s nice that there’s no royalties being paid either. If you do want royalties to be paid, we can work with that as well. Just let us know. 

  • Does this mean I have to get a tezos wallet to get the art?

    • Yes

  • How can I get a tezos wallet?

    • https://tezos.art/ 

      • If you scroll down there’s even a way to get free tez

    • We use Temple 

  • Why wouldn't I just list it myself?

    • You're likely to net more from this since we'll be reimbursing transfer fees and there will be no royalties​ 

  • Will the art be an edition?

    • Maybe. Probably. Don’t be a snob lol

  • What qualifies as a rug or a tank (our definition)

    • Value has fallen to below $10 USD or less

    • Rugs are when the founders have abandoned the project

    • Tanks are when due to no fault of the founders, the value dropped and is unlikely to rebound

  • What about free mints?

    • Value must be under what you paid in gas

  • How many of my nfts can I sell/swap?

    • For the beta we will only accept 1 per collector as we want to spread the love

  • Can I sell the art?

    • Of course. It’s yours. HOWEVER we do ask that you be respectful and not undercut the artists. Some of these folks are living by these sales and others have invested their blood, sweat, tears, and have taken a risk in sharing a piece of their soul with us

  • Do I have to take the art

    • No, but we hope you will want to experience some of the amazing artists in this space as part of this experience

  • Can I just have the TEZ?

    • No dude

  • What will you do with my swapped nft?

    • Lots of options (keep it, sell it, give it away in bundles as a prize/punishment, make new art with it)

  • Can I just donate my rugs/tanks? 

    • Absolutely and thank you in advance! DM us to arrange and so we can tweet our celebration and thanks

Artist FAQ

  • How do I get my art collected for this project

    • Work must be under 5 TEZ

    • We want to offer you as many ways as possible to submit your art to make it as easy and quick as possible while also allowing us to promote you whether we are able to purchase from you or not. Feel free to

      • Join our spaces

      • Fill out our Artists Form

      • Respond to the spaces with a link to your work

      • Feel free to request to come on stage to talk about your work, however we want to make sure that this doesn’t feel like a painful shill space. Come and talk if you love to, but we will pay just as much if not more attention to replies to our tweets and we may even share some of the work we like in the thread ourselves during the spaces

      • Feel free to send a friend or collector who likes to talk or tweet on your behalf

      • You can DM us if you like, but we prefer tweets for the following reasons

        • We may not be able to respond to all DMs

        • Tweets allow us to share your work out to the widest possible audience whether or not we are able to purchase it 

        • We also hope that the collectors who are trading their NFTs will be looking through these posts to find amazing art

      • We will also be doing our homework and searching our twitter feeds for great art

    • Keep in mind, as with all things the treasury has a limit so we won’t always be able to purchase all the work

  • Am I guaranteed to get my work collected if I fill out the form?

    • No unfortunately we are working within the constraints of a fairly limited budget

  • How many of my works will collect

    • For now, we will only collect 1 piece per artists so we can showcase and promote as many artists as possible

  • Does my work have to be on tez?

    • Yes. (see “Why TEZ” above)

  • What if the collector lists my art for below my existing floor

    • Please contact us so we can make it right. This effort is meant to help artists, not hurt them​
