Some fun details about Vareniyam on @highlight I didn't hear anyone mention it so I guess it wasn't too obvious, and I figured I'd keep it to myself until minting was over, cause it could be gamed if you really wanted. It's about the features / traits: "age" and "ver" :)

"age" is the cumulative amount of time spent exploring before minting. I shared Vareniyam 491 yesterday which took @pochita- almost 3.5 hours to find! And this is Vareniyam 665, which took anon 4 hour 15 mins and it's really quite unique!

"ver" means "version" (always size optimizing) and it consists of 2 numbers documenting the exploration journey. The 1st number counts the full random re-rolls (SPACE), and the 2nd number counts the individual fine tuning re-rolls (ZXCVB) made to arrive at this exact output.

I thought this way collectors can get an impression of the effort spent locating Vareniyam's treasures in an infinite sea. Of course this doesn't mean the ones with lower numbers are worse in any way, there is always luck, the decision to mint or not (or my code glitching!!).

Just because someone spent 2h exploring Vareniyam doesn't mean that every output from then on will be better, because that is not how random does. See the traits as a ship's log, mileage or travel memories.

So I made a nice gallery webpage where you can easily view and sort by traits: https://piterpasma.nl/vareniyam <-- CLIK!! Anyway hope you all enjoyed the project and this little easter egg but most importantly, the journey of exploration!!

What does it mean if it says 0 minutes? It took me a lot longer than zero minutes to come up with #661! I couldn’t guess how long it really was. Longer than I’ve spent on some, less time than I’ve spent on others. :)

It means that my code glitched out somehow. Sorry about that, it was a bit of an experimental thing, that I didn't have time to catch all the edge cases for. But who can now say they did analytics on their collectors by tracking them through minting traits?! 😂

It’s a brilliant idea for sure. 😀
