The collection is where the story begins. The ecosystem around it is where the world keeps expanding.
Mint isn't intended to represent the end of The Great Escape. It provides resources that help us build what comes after it.
Building the first playable experience and progressing toward the larger Great Escape game.
Artwork, animation, storytelling, environments and characters needed to expand the universe.
Events, competitions, experiences and initiatives built around the Great Escape community.
Strategic marketing, collaborations and distribution that introduce more people to the universe.
Technology, platforms and operational requirements necessary to keep building.
How does this benefit holders?
We don't believe holder benefit has to mean distributing mint revenue directly. Building better products, stronger experiences and a larger ecosystem creates more reasons to remain part of The Great Escape.
Resources are deployed to strengthen both the Great Escape itself, and the experience of the people holding it. Where practical, we'll communicate meaningful development progress so the community can see what's being built.
Royalties collected by The Great Escape are intended to be used for the benefit of holders. We won't permanently decide today how every future royalty should be used the community's priorities will evolve.
Some decisions belong to the prisoners.
We don't want to build The Great Escape behind closed doors while holders simply watch.
Before major community-facing additions are finalized, we collect holder feedback through discussions, polls, testing and proposals.
As the project grows, it may need people across community management, testing, design, events and development.
Certain decisions and initiatives are presented to holders for discussion, feedback or voting where appropriate.
Web3 has seen countless projects announce utility because the market expected it tokens, unrelated products, promises that sounded impressive until somebody had to deliver them. We're taking a different approach.
What it means to be a prisoner potential holder-focused experiences that can evolve as the ecosystem grows:
The people who help build the community should remain part of its future.
We don't measure progress by how many items fit on a roadmap. We measure it by what actually gets built sharing development where possible, listening when something isn't working, and avoiding promises simply because they sound good on a website.
4,444 prisoners will enter the facility. What happens after is up to what we build, what the community creates, and how far this universe can go.
THE GATES WERE BUILT TO KEEP US IN. LET'S SEE HOW LONG THEY LAST.
