Six months ago, six Aastronaut Aavegotchis set off on an exploratory mission into Layer 1. Along the way they fractionalized on Unicly and have been farming UNIC. However we recently received a transmission that they miss their frens and want to set off to their next adventure in the Gotchiverse Realm.

Aavegotchi recently released the bridge from Polygon to Ethereum, which means our Aastronauts are now able to join the rest of their frens as soon as they are set free from captivity from their Unicly vault. For their service, each Aastronaut will receive a commemorative Baadge signifying this historic mission, which they can proudly display in their Gotchi Pocket.

In order to retire the Aastronauts from duty, the guardians of the vault will need to use their uGOTCHI tokens to vote for a release and collectively reach a threshold over 50%.

Two of the largest uGOTCHI owners who together own the majority of tokens have agreed to release the Aastronauts and let them find new owners. Any third party bidder will be able to make an ETH offer for the gotchis. The moment the vault is liquidated, the highest bidder for each individual gotchi will be able to claim the NFT and uGOTCHI owners will be eligible to claim their pro rata portion of the sales proceeds.

The countdown will start on October 8th, 2021 7:00am UTC and will last for 7 days. At the end of the countdown, the two largest uGOTCHI holders will vote to dissolve the gallery.

The contents of the gallery are as follows:

#1549 — Terence McKenna

With his own fan-fiction and emojis, this big brained gotchi truly has a cult following. Terence may very well be the most iconic of all Aavegotchis to date! It is a Haunt 1 Aavegotchi with a Rarity Score of 801, Frenly (66) Kinship and 101 aDAI inside. The uber-high Rarity Score helped Terence farm over 20,000 GHST in Season 1 of Rarity Farming.

Unopened Portal 2

This Haunt 1 Portal enjoys the very low token ID #2. Originally purchased on the Baazaar (Aavegotchi’s secondary marketplace) for 60,000 GHST, this Portal is among the lowest token IDs in all of Aavegotchi ecosystem. Of the current 25,000 ERC721 tokenIDs in existence for Aavegotchi, there are only two tokenIDs lower than this one and neither of them have ever been sold.

That’s because each Aavegotchi starts its life as a Portal. If you were to own and open this Portal, it would engage a Chainlink oracle and randomly generate 10 unique Aavegotchis. From there you can summon only one of those ten at which point the Portal (ERC721) transforms its metadata into the very Aavegotchi you summoned. Of the current 25,000 ERC721 tokenIDs in existence for Aavegotchi, there are only two tokenIDs lower than this one and neither of them have ever been listed for sale.

How to Bid:

With Aavegotchis now bridged and trading on Ethereum markets like OpenSea and Rarible, this is a perfect time to acquire some of the most celebrity Aavegotchis in existence! To bid, go to Unicly and check out the uGOTCHI dashboard here and follow these simple steps:
