I am building this out as I write this post so input is welcome.
https://nftsanta.clubThe concept:PHASE 1
1. collect public & fair use wikiArt with metadatas and index to db (done)
2. upload all images to IPFS and store urls in db (done)
3. download all images and validate against source data per db and if valid, compress to jpg LQ and store in db as base64 encode (allows LQ image loads from db without pinging wikiart or ipfs)
(IN PROCESS)4. make db data available for public download (includes ipfs urls to originals with wikiArt datas and license infos, tags, etc and a LQ jpg in base64 format, 47755 images)
This step (4) completes the PHASE 1 of making a preservation database for the "random wikiart" pages (minus invalid ones... about 500)
PHASE 2
Write an opensource autobot for batch minting on opensea and then use the bot to mint #nftSanta's G.A.M.E. pieces beta series which will feature an NFT based game and hourly gamepiece nft giveaways that do the following:
1. Front end sales in 39 cryptos converts to BTC daily and is used for a BTC faucet game. So u pay $1 and get a NFT on polygon for the game and the $1 is part of the share BITCOIN prize pool.
2. 45% of sales and royalties on NFTs will go to club as commissions, prizes, and random giveaways
3. 45% goes to theWaterProject
4. 10% to adminstration and development
After the beta run, I will release the batch mint bot that is 100% free and ad free and focus on game development and more tools.
