TSSNFT: Turning passion into success
Starting from the passion for sneakers and blockchain, the founders of The Sneakerheadz Society have successfully built an NFT community with a resounding unexpected success by combining the two terms into one direction.
The SneakerHeadz Society project is a prime example of a community-based NFT project. As the name of the project, they offer membership to own digital art works under the image of “sneaker heads”. TSS has created a community that unites sneakers and NFT lovers. By launching the project, the founders want to bring about an ecosystem that brings digital experiences of sneakers lovers and sports shoe collectors. In the community, art creators and collectors are connected through interactive functions and exchange information and sneaker related assets.
Ape, one of the founders of the project shared: “It only took 2 and a half months from planning to completion, TSS was officially operational and published to the public.” The members of the project put in their best efforts and worked at full capacity to complete it as quickly as possible. According to Ape, “We knew that the hype for NFTs was really hot right now so we didn’t want to miss any single second”.
Indeed, the TSS has become an NFT project that interests many users. In particular, the project attracts people that are into sneakers and also like collecting stuff. The TSS team took the logical step to bring them into collecting NFTs of sneaker related stuff. “We’re proud that we were able to come up with a platform to engage and get people that aren’t really aware of NFTs into the awesomeness of NFTs.”
“In just an hour and a half on sale, we sould out our NFT that we minted.” And amazingly, TSS owns up to 1000 unique customers with 4,444 NFTs. In the other words, there are no owners with 2000 NFTs, which means that TSS is really spreading. Many of them are celebrities, “big buyers” — “We have a bunch of Instagram influences, a lot of YouTubers”, Ape shared about TSS’s success.
Starting from a passion for sports shoes, Ape brought the TSS project to life because of the desire to bring a great explosive project about sports shoes. “We knew we wanted to do something sneaker related but we couldn’t do exact replicas of shoes because of copyright laws”. Having worked in the crypto industry and known NFT for many years, the original project’s creators all saw the potential of NFT marketplaces and the successes to be had when starting with NFT. Therefore, the combination of passion for sports shoes and understanding of NFT gave birth to the TSS project.
During project development, of course, the TSS team also encountered certain difficulties. The difficulty of this project comes from naming files that are attached to the incorrect label by the large number of files. As a result, the project was delayed for a few days to check all the files to make sure they were visible on OpenSea — an NFT marketplace when it was published.
Ape asserts, “The TSS team is doing a great job on the project and we’re always working to fix bugs as soon as they appear.” The TSS community offers a bunch of exciting giveaways and a few contests for their collectors as acts of showing that they listen to whatever their collectors want. The condition to participate in the giveaway and contest is to own TSS NFT, collectors can win a pair of sneakers worth up to 500 dollars.
“We’re working hard to bring innovation to the product. For example, learning to change the backgrounds of the sneakerheads which might be kind of difficult”. The TSS team will continue to develop the project to improve their community. TSS’s next roadmap is towards the sandbox which is similar to crypto voxels, a metaverse project. “It will be like a virtual reality kind of platform. We are really bullish on sandbox and I think it will come out in the next three months.” An interactive game with the sneaker heads within the sandbox metaverse or some kind of application of their NFT collectible project on sandbox would really be a great development for the TSS community.
We can see the great appeal that TSS NFT has created for their community of collectors. TSS NFT in particular and NFT in general have created irreplaceable tokens that can prove ownership of holders on blockchain. To be sure, the growth of NFT will continue over the next few years. Ape affirms the growth of NFT: “I believe that in only maybe 4 years, NFT can replace physical paperwork to represent ownership of a lot of physical assets such as car, house… instead of mainly focusing on digital/physical art, ticket as it is now”.
In short, NFT has really brought us surprises over the years. There are many more examples of the success and growth of NFT projects like TSS. As blockchain technology continues to advance with many breakthroughs, the boom and dominance of NFT will surely appear quickly.
