Summary
Define the curation process of Programmatic Collections for Linked Wearables a.k.a Third Party Wearables.
Abstract
This is a follow up proposal to cover one particular use case around Linked Wearables collections that are created in a programmatic way. This means that each item was not crafted individually by hand, but automatically generated with code, many times from traits that were previously designed and modeled. CryptoPunks, CryptoAvatars and BAYC are examples of Programmatic Collections.
Motivation
It is very unpractical, and almost impossible, to curate all the wearables in a large collection of 10k items, or more. It is also prohibitively expensive for third parties. But if that collection was made programmatically, it may not be necessary to curate every item one by one. It would make much more sense to audit the process used to generate that collection and curate a random portion of the items. Like when you are boiling spaghetti, you don’t need to try them all to know when it’s ready
Specification
This is a proposal to introduce a new and more efficient way to curate this particular case of collections for Linked Wearables. It will make it easier and faster for the curator, shorten the time to put the collection in production, and save costs for the third parties.
The new mechanic consists of 2 parts:
- Reviewing the method: the curator will review the programmatic method used to create the items in the collection. If the method proves to be generating items programatically with the same base traits, it will follow up with the second step.
- Reviewing items in the collection: as the items were not created individually - but automatically with a previously validated programmatic method - there is no need to review each item in the collection. Reviewing just a random portion of the items will be enough to validate the rest. The curator will randomly choose X% items in the collection and curate only those. X% to be defined in this proposal.
Voting
Vote to define “X”, meaning the portion of the collection to be curated to consider it approved as a whole.
- YES: X = 1%
- YES: X = 0.5%
- YES: X = 0.25%
- YES: X = 0.1%
- NO: Decline this curation method for programmatic collections in Linked Wearables
Examples
- “x” = 1%: If 1% of the items in the collection have to be curated and the collection has 10k items, then 100 items need to be curated. Thus the third party needs to pay for 100 wearables*
- “x” = 0.5%: If 0.5% of the items have to be curated and the collection has 10k items, then 50 items need to be curated. Thus the third party needs to pay for 50 wearables*
- “x” = 0.25%: If 0.25% of the items have to be curated and the collection has 3k items, then 8 items need to be curated. Thus the third party needs to pay for 8 wearables*
- “x” = 0.1%: If 0.1% of the items have to be curated and the collection has 10k items, then 10 items need to be curated. Thus the third party needs to pay for 10 wearables*
- NO: If the collection has 10k items and this curation method is not implemented, then 10k items need to be curated. Thus the third party needs to pay for 10k wearables*
*(USD 500 per wearable as defined in the past proposal).
Note: consider that, if a Third Party has to pay for all the items in a large collection, the price could be extremely restrictive for any Third Party. For example: at current curation prices, if the collection has 10k items, the price for the curation would be 5 million US dollars!
