Stepping Into The Future of Madness.

Why are you so surprised anon? You always knew that the Madness is inevitable.

GM Mad Kats.
Today is such a strange day. You can feel the excitement in the birds chirping away in the distance, the glow from the evening sun feeling especially homely. All these alongside a comforting breeze with that perfect touch of gentleness. Perhaps, the world is as excited as we are, and decided to create the perfect day for us to share our MMB Cross-Chain Initiative with all of the Madness. Or perhaps, it’s my imagination being playful as always, but that’s beside the point.

Yes, we are officially initiating our Cross-Chain expansion plans.

Born Mad

In December 2021, when I wrote our MM EOY reflections, I recall sharing about how I was worried about the macro factors that were shaping up and that regardless what 2022 brings, nothing will stop the Madness. As always in life, talk is easy, actions and decisions are what truly matters. Nothing could ever prepare us for what this year has brought forth to everyone in the industry.

In a time of immense volatility, it definitely is easy to be distracted. You are constantly living in a headspace where you are forced to experience a fresh bout of emotions, thoughts, and decisions every single time the notification from “Wu Blockchain News” pop up. Kidding, because its not just Wu Blockchain News, its every single news publication, twitter thread etc. There is no time to draw a clear line between facts and narratives.

The logical thing to do is to patiently wait for this storm to pass, believing that all will be fine eventually and you will be ready for the best possible move once the dust is settled. However, what happens when the storm doesn’t seem to stop and you realise that there is more at stake than you think. What if something has to be done under a circumstance where you do not have the luxury of a perfect set-up for the best possible move?

Close your eyes, drop the logic. Amid this chaos, remember all the ingredients that made you who you are. Simplify them and locate the core few main ingredients- because no matter what happens, those are your true indicators of direction, the real you. That’s what authenticity means to us as a team and what the Madness will always be.

For us, it was never about money. We truly love what we do and we will never stop being Mad. The Madness is our life and that will never change. Hence, even at this stage of worsening macro factors, the unravelling of Crypto greed, we have long decided to work towards a future where we can be proud about even trying to create. One, that will make the MM Brand truly a household name should we succeed.

With that, alongside our MMF Defi arm, I am pleased to announce our cross-chain plans for MMB as well.

The next chain of Madness will be at Polygon.

Polygon of Madness.

Polygon is an environment that embodies key characteristics that empower projects to succeed

Key Characteristics:
- Extremely low gas-fees
- EVM-compatible
- Established marketplace as well (Opensea)
- Significant potential with its size of community, maturity of community and funding etc.
- High TVL on the protocol
- Lack of dominant Defi ecosystem

Polygon is also one of the top chains in terms of volume and number of holders. This will provide immense exposure to MM, a key proponent for our growth as a brand.

In terms of the artwork, it is still in progress and it should be ready in a few weeks. The first collection would be centered largely upon our DMM collection with a clear representation of the Polygon chain.

About the three most important questions in your head, “What about the mint?”, “ WEN ARE YOU GOING TO TALK ABOUT IT? ” and finally, “What happens to #crofam”? . Now, Mad Kats, I will share about it now.

Polygonal Plans

Our Polygon MM collection will boast a total size of 12,000 Mad Kats. We as a team decided to expand our first collection as a whole because,

  • Given the fact that the community will now include audiences from 2 chains.
  • Most of it will be airdropped to existing holders.

Yes, let me repeat once more, most of it will be airdropped to existing holders. If you’re one with the Madness, the Madness is one with you too. For those who are relatively new to the Madness, this is one of our core tenets from the first day we started minting on Ethereum. Nothing has changed.

Total Airdrops allocated: 12,000

Airdrop requirements:
-Wallets that must be holding at least one DMM
- You need at least 1 DMM to even qualify for airdrop.
- You only need one DMM in your wallet to qualify for the entire set of rules, not one DMM for each rule (E.g if you have 2 ETH MM and 1 DMM, you get 2 airdrops)

If DMM is present in wallet,
-1 ETH MM enables you to be airdropped 1 Poly MM
-3 CRO MM enables you to be airdropped 1 Poly MM
-2 MM Treehouse enables you to be airdropped 1 Poly MM.
- All legendary DMMs get 5x airdrop
- 840 Poly MMB to be randomly airdropped to DMM holders (By NFT ID)
- 5 Degen MM enables you to be airdropped 1 Poly MM. The DMM present in wallet as your pass also counts to this, so you will only need 5 DMMs in total to get the airdrop, not 5+1.

Thus, the maximum possible airdrops is 777 + 3333 + 5000 + 50 + 840 + 2000 = 12000.

Moving on to Mint details:
Total Public Mint Supply: Leftover after airdrops
Mint Token: To be confirmed.
Mint Price: To be confirmed.
Mint Date: To be confirmed

Main Utility:
- Similar to Cronos, all PMMB can be staked on MMF.
- Amplify your daily yield by 1% per Mad Kat staked.
-Stake a max of 3 Mad Kats to boost your total returns by 3%, daily.

Cronos Plans

Now, make no mistake. There is still plenty left to build in Cronos, and we will be working hard to ensure success of all chains. Here’s what’s coming for all #crofam in the coming weeks and months:

  • MMA and its entire route of development. We are stoked to see the madness in our Mad Sacks Mint, and are thrilled to bring MMA to you guys soon. MMA is our first foray into gaming, and #crofam will be our first audience to enjoy these developments. Expect beta launch, upgrades, new items, implementation of various modes, and more to come in the future.
  • Under One Roof Season 2. We are starting to look out for good partners to join us in the next rendition of Under One Roof. Applications have already begun streaming in but this window is still open. Let the team or mods know if you have any project in mind.
  • $MAD Integrations. We have said this for some time now, $MAD has a final utility that is still unexplored. We have been working behind the scenes with strong projects on this. More will be revealed in due time.
  • Other collabs with good projects, such as in the form of joint artwork

While we will now have exposure across three chains, we have a new suite of exciting plans for all MM NFT holders, regardless of which chain you are in. These developments are chain-agnostic, and cover a wide range of utilities across different aspects.

1. Metaverse Exploration

- We are bullish on The Otherside. With tons of funding, expertise, and experience by a proven team, it has a high chance of becoming truly what we envision to be the true metaverse in the future. We have applied for SDK access and own a couple of lands. Mad Meerkats will be a part of The Otherside, together with all the other top tier NFTs out there.

- We will also be working on Decentraland, a platform that is widely popular especially with corporate companies. Proven to scale relatively comfortably with number of players, we will give you a good experience playing about in this one.

- NFT Worlds, as you guys know, has hit an obstacle, but that does not keep us from building. Work is 100% completed but we will be working with Entity Builds on NFT World’s new roadmap.

- Oncyber.io. We tested MAD Display on this platform and will be aiming to enhance this experience in other variations in terms of VR exposure.

And of course, eventually, all metaverse developments will eventually be linked, creating the MAD-taverse that we have been aiming to build since Day One.

2. #MMGlobalMadness

You should be familiar with our #MMGlobalMadness Campaign, which was started to make physical meetups for the Burrow more accessible, instead of requiring everyone to assemble at one place at a particular time. We now have over 70 reps from 50 regions beginning to create little communities. If you are keen, either fill up the form on our website, or join the burrow and indicate your interest in the general chat. Our moderators will be sure to get you to the right regional channels for you.

Our dream is for each little community to step up to become the representatives in the city, and spread the madness to friends, neighbors, family, and just about anyone in your area. It is definitely not easy managing so many areas — but nothing easy is ever mad, isn’t it?

3. Partnerships

Cryptocoffeebeans and Evergreenkings Merch were two partnerships that were met with positive reviews, and we know it is important to bring more value in this aspect to you. Since early this year, we have been in countless meetings with numerous partners, so expect more for you guys along the way. You will stand a chance to reap these benefits by pretty much simply holding.

4. Artwork Collection

It is no secret that our in-house artist, Decorator, has delivered time and time again on the artwork. We have also emphasised many times on looking at art as a utility in itself, just like how our first banners were like. Expect more of such artworks over time, and we will be having specific collections for each of the chains.

5. Crypto moves fast. The meta changes with every passing weeks or even days. We see this trend as an opportunity for constant brainstorming to create more madness. If it’s Mad, we will build it for all of the Madness.

MAD4LIFE

People often desire a life without challenges. Perhaps when you’re one with the Madness, you question if the definition of such a life is one that you’d like. Real challenges are rare opportunities for greater success and personal growth. The gains from which are of course tremendous and that’s exactly why it’s perhaps meant to be truly scary. Yet here we are regardless, ready to embrace the entirety of the coming Madness. Question is… are you?

See you on the other side Mad Kats.
